Deep Space 13 (or, DS13, abbreviated) is a Regula Type-3 Class space station located roughly 6 weeks away from Gamma Tauri. DS13 is currently under the command of Vice Admiral Viran, with Lieutenant Commander Amanda Toddman as the stations first officer. Toddman, a very young but very capable, already vastly experienced and promising officer was hand picked by Viran to bring in a unique and interesting point of view to the command staff of Deep Space 13.
