Revision as of 04:05, 1 October 2019
Starfleet was the space navy of the United Federation of Planets, charged with the responsibility for exploration of new territory, policing of Federation law within the UFP, and defense of the Federation from outside hostile forces. Starfleet had a military structure and used military terminology, but it was not simply a military organization; the role of Starfleet involved duties beyond that of a military arm of government.[1]
Following the incorporation of the United Federation of Planets by Earth, Alpha Centauri, Vulcan, Andoria, and Tellar Prime[2] on Reference Stardate 0/8706.06 (12 August 2161),[3][4] Starfleet Command was scheduled to be organized within three years in order to provide a unified military force for exploration and common defense.[5][1][6]
Starfleet Command was formally established to replace the spacegoing forces of all member planets, with all ships redesignated as "United Space Ships" (U.S.S.). To discourage the possible misuse of military forces anywhere in space, General Order Number One, aka the Prime Directive, was adopted as the most important regulation in Starfleet.[6] To provide Starfleet Command with military intelligence-gathering capabilities, Starfleet Intelligence was created. Its Operating Forces Subdivision initially consisted of Sectors 1 through 4, and the Technical Services Subdivision contained Orion Activities Units as well as supporting branches.[7]
