Outpost Houtman is a Starfleet dilithium mining facility located on Sheo III, a class-M planet dominated by humid jungles. This outpost is also the nucleus of a new Federation colony, though the sustainability of long-term inhabitation of the planet is unknown due to the planet's tectonic instability and unpredictable weather. Key threats in the region include the Breen, Tzenkethi, and Kzinti, so this facility also houses a long-range sensor array to serve as a waypoint for exploratory and patrol missions in the area.

Organization

Outpost Houtman has a Starfleet crew commanded by a Starfleet commander. The new colony slowly being established around the outpost is under civilian control, but its leaders defer to Starfleet in most matters.
