Originally a Class K planet, Mars was terraformed to become Class M.[1] Mars is the fourth planet in the Sol system,[3] located in Quadrant I of the United Federation of Planets.[2]
Early exploration of Mars began in 1976 with the Viking 1 probe, which landed on the planet and transmitted photographs, climatic measurements, and soil composition data back to Earth. Colonization of Mars began in 2012, with the establishment of Marsbase 1, humanity's first interplanetary outpost, which was tasked with searching for life, past or present, on the red planet, among other scientific objectives. Fifteen astronauts were led by Director Mark Glynn. Marsbase 2 was established in 2015, continuing the mission begun by Marsbase 1. Mars exploration expanded once again with the establishment of Marsbase 3 in 2018, which was tasked with an in-depth study on the mining of materials from the Martian moons, Phobos and Deimos, and mining began on Deimos a year later. The first signs of extraterrestrial life was found in the form of fossilized, insect-like creatures in 2021.[5]
Mars gained its independence from Earth in 2062,[5] after a document called the "Fundamental Declaration of the Martian Colonies" was published,[4] which asserted that the Mars colonists were entitled to the same political and legal rights as anyone living on Earth.[1] In 2105, a serial murderer killed eight women, a crime that would go unsolved until 2208.[6] Once the Federation was founded, Mars became a member in its own right, and by Reference Stardate 2/2306.01 (1 June 2223), the population of Mars had reached 15.74 billion. Planetary concerns included industry, trade, shipbuilding, and Star Fleet support facilities. By 2223, Martian shipbuilding facilities, such as the Utopia Planitia Shipyards,[7] produced an average of 1 Excelsior class battleship, 6 cruisers, 13 destroyers, 28 escorts, 4 scouts, and 28 civilian and commercial vessels.[2]
