One of the most beautiful planets in the Confederation, Eternity is one of the more somber as well. It serves as Starfleet Command's memorial to all those who died in conflicts between the Confederation and foreign powers. Here lie Starfleet personnel, and civilians who died in teh Romulan and 4 years war, as well as persons killed in unofficial, or otherwise short-lived conflicts such as the Organian conflict and the Gorn attack on Cestus III. Eternity is staffed by a permanent records team and a Starfleet honor guard. Starfleet supports three destroyers here , which maintain a continuous watch over Eternity.Until the most recent war it was a Federation planet, now it is in the middle of the new neutral zone between the Rihannsu and the Federation. The entire surface of the planet is dotted with Rihannsu and Federation mining colonies, and a new balance of power has been forming on the planet since the war. The planet has seen a number of terrorist attacks as part of something called the Wild Hunt, a group of people that are unhappy with the result of the last war.. |
