Missions involved[ | ]
- “Welcome to Earth Spacedock”: After rescuing colonists from Vega Colony in early 2409, you are ordered to return to Earth Spacedock to drop off the evacuees and meet with Admiral Quinn.
- “Changing Clothes”, “Skills Trainer”, “Medical Attention”, “Out of Commission”, and “A Difficult Decision”: Beginning at Ensign Rraak, a chain of breadcrumb-missions instructs you to find out more about Earth Spacedock's amenities.
- “Stranded in Space”: Before embarking on your first mission after your turbulent training cruise, you have the option to seek out Malcolm Sissel on Earth Spacedock, who will instruct you on how to undock your ship.
- “Surface Tension”: In early 2410, Earth Spacedock is heavily damaged by the Undine during an ambush. Although the attack was merely concerted as a distraction from the Undine's main target, Qo'noS, Admiral Quinn was severely injured and Lieutenant Commander E'genn was exposed as an Undine infiltrator.
- “Blood of Ancients”: The powers of the Alpha and Beta Quadrants hold a joint briefing on Earth Spacedock to discuss the strategy to combat the Iconians, but the briefing is interrupted by a Herald attack on New Romulus.
- “Midnight”: During the final battle against the Iconians in Earth orbit, Earth Spacedock is badly damaged and the U.S.S. Chimera assists in its evacuation.
- "Operation Wolf": Coordinated by Leeta, players undergo a holodeck simulation of a potential raid of Earth Spacedock in the mirror universe.
Other involvement[ | ]
- In Tales of the War #1, Captain Tom Paris meets with Admiral Jorel Quinn in his office onboard ESD to discuss the formation of Delta Flight. It is also implied that Paris used to be the commanding officer of ESD prior to Quinn.
- In Tales of the War #14, Admiral Quinn records a personal log from his office on ESD. He reflects on the disastrous events of “Broken Circle”, and privately disputes claims that the attack on the Herald Sphere was even a partial victory. He notes that Herald attacks have increased since the attack, and that L'Miren's Heralds are now joining the fight. He notes that while Starfleet had elected to reject the Krenim weapon, he fears that recent events will cause Starfleet Command to reevaluate that decision.
Notes[ | ]
- This map replaced the old Earth Spacedock map with the release of Season 9. In the mission “Surface Tension”, which was released along with the redesign, the player fights Undine boarding parties in the destroyed old interior map of the Spacedock, thereby giving somewhat of an in-universe explanation for the map-revamp.
- Following the death of Leonard Nimoy in February 2015, a plaque dedicated to the memory of all deceased cast and crew of the Star Trek franchise was erected in the mezzanine, and black banners were displayed during a week of mourning from March 5 through 12.
- Several hanging lights where added to the main concourse of ESD along with the graphics/lighting update released with Agents of Yesterday: Artifacts.
- During the 2020 Coronavirus pandemic, the Pasteur was joined by the U.S.S. Comfort and U.S.S. Mercy (named for the US Navy hospital ships) outside the station. Inside, the Pasteur is no longer visible inside the docking bay, and two other Olympic-class ships (presumably the Mercy and Comfort) are visible from the windows in the operations area.
- As of September 14, 2021 with the release of Season Twenty-four: Reflections and the new TFO “Operation: Wolf”, the shuttlebay is now accessible to players and Ghemik Telur has received voice-overs.
