The Sanction was an Ornaran freighter that was used to transport goods between the worlds of Ornara and Brekka, in the Delos system. Under the command of T'Jon, its primary purpose was to transport the cargo of felicium from Brekka to Ornara.

In 2364, the Sanction lost power and was threated by hitting the atmosphere of Ornara. The USS Enterprise-D responded before the freighter disintergrated, but was only able to save some of the ship's cargo of felicium, and four of its six passengers and crew, including T'Jon, Sobi, Romas and Langor.
