Changes: Cold Station 12

Revision as of 01:33, 7 June 2014

For the ENT episode of the same name, please see "Cold Station 12".

Cold Station 12, also known as C12, was a top-secret facility located in an asteroid in the 22nd century. It was jointly operated and staffed by Humans and the Denobulans under the auspices of the Interspecies Medical Exchange. The facility was used to store hazardous viruses and pathogens for research purposes, as well as over 1,800 embryos of 20th century Augments, left over from the Eugenics Wars.

Nineteen of the Augment embryos were stolen in the 2130s by facility chief of staff Doctor Arik Soong. Soong intended to create a new race of "supermen" and took the embryos to the Trialas system, where he raised them as his children. In 2154, Doctor Jeremy Lucas became the facility's chief of staff. Soong returned to C12 in May of that year in a stolen Klingon Bird-of-Prey, along with his "children," to take the remaining embryos. The Enterprise NX-01 arrived in an attempt to stop Soong, forcing him to take hostages. Malik, one of the Augments, brutally interrogated Dr. Lucas, and even killed one of his staff members using Symbalene blood burn, in an attempt to extract the access code that would grant them access to the rest of the Augment embryos.

Captain Archer led a boarding party to C12 in an attempt to stop Soong, but they were soon taken prisoner as well. When Malik threatened to kill Doctor Phlox, Lucas's old friend, Lucas relented and input the access code, granting Soong access to the embryos. Enterprise attempted to destroy the station rather than let Soong escape with the embryos, but Soong and the Augments were able to escape aboard the Bird-of-Prey. Before they left, however, Malik set the stasis fields containing the pathogens in the station to collapse, hoping to kill everyone aboard. Fortunately, Captain Archer was able to reroute the power relays and protect the main core of the station. Afterward, Doctor Lucas and his staff remained behind to begin decontamination procedures, which Lucas estimated would take a year. (ENT: "Cold Station 12", "The Augments")

When Malik threatened to kill Doctor [[Phlox]], Lucas's old friend, Lucas relented and input the access code, granting Soong access to the embryos.

-During Soong's tenure aboard C-12, the [[power relay]]s in the senior medical director's office were faulty, causing the [[computer]] terminal lights to flicker every two [[Earth measurements#Hour|hours]]. Soong asked the maintenance crew to fix it several times, but when he returned ten years later, the problem still wasn't repaired.

-In [[2154]], Doctor [[Jeremy Lucas]] became the facility's chief of staff.  Soong returned to C-12 in [[May]] of that year in a [[Klingon Bird-of-Prey (22nd century)|Klingon Bird-of-Prey]] to take the remaining embryos.  Soong and his followers escaped with the embryos, despite the intervention of the [[Enterprise (NX-01)|''Enterprise'' NX-01]]. In the incident, several staff members were killed and the entire station was flooded with pathogens except for the command center.  Doctor Lucas estimated it would take a year to decontaminate the station.

-It seems odd that by the mid-[[22nd century]], humanity would have not just one deep space station, but twelve dedicated to housing biological agents and pathogens for medical research. It is possible that this station, while outfitted with Starfleet-style technology, was actually built by the Denobulans, or that previous "cold stations" were constructed by them.
