[[Category:Task Force 86]][[Category:Aurora Class-class]]

Starbase 86 is an Aurora Class starbase located in the Beta Quadrant on the edge of the Azure Nebula. The base serves as the current headquarters of the Fourth Fleet's Task Force 86. A nearby region of space known as The Triangle remains an unclaimed border-zone between United Federation of Planets, Klingon Empire and Romulan Republic space where piracy has flourished.

The starbase was originally constructed as a logistics hub for Federation colonies in the Raeya, Adelphous and Tandara systems. These worlds, among other smaller colonies, each experienced rapid population growth once it became clear that peace had come to the region following the signing of the Khitomer Accords in 2293. This necessitated a hub for trade and resource distribution in the sector. The Azure Nebula was and is of scientific interest to Starfleet, given its ability to confound ship's sensors and the several starship disappearances that have occurred within.

As The Triangle demilitarised over the course of the 2300s, the area became a safe haven for those evading any form of galactic authority. Orion pirates, substance and slave trafficking cartels, extremist groups and even the fallen Klingon Hunters of D'Ghor have found homes in The Triangle. Some have made their bases in the impenetrable depths of the Azure Nebula itself.
