Starbase 220
Starbase 220 stands as the designated safe harbor for the Enterprise crew after their harrowing escape from the Tyken’s Rift. Data, concluding his stint as acting captain from the helm in sickbay, plots the ship's course directly toward it. Picard and Troi witness this final directive amid the crew's exhaustion, the base symbolizing recovery and return to Federation operations. No physical details of the station appear, but its selection underscores urgency for rest and repairs.
