Golden Age Film; Series (Drama) — Birmingham, Alabama, USA
"Starship Deimos" (NCC-2787) is a creative team with productions set on the U.S.S. Deimos, NCC-2787, a Phobos-class starship, a border patrol ship on the outreaches of Federation territory, near the Romulan, Tholian and Orion border.
This production is more action-oriented than Potemkin Pictures previous efforts. 2299, when thee adventures are set, finds the United Federation of Planets on a precipice from which they may fall. Quadrant 9, Sector 72 is adjacent to a section of the Romulan Neutral Zone, colonies of the Orion Barrier Alliance, and seed worlds of the Tholian Assembly. There are 43 Federation colonies in this region known as 'The Back Forty-ish.' The planets are basically agrarian, with a few scientific and medical outposts present. A tempting target for pirates, an easy 'back door' into the Federation for smugglers, and rich, tempting worlds for those wanting to expand their territory.
Deimos has been assigned to the sector to protect the Federation border. The vigilance and dedication of its crew are the only thing between those colonies and those who would do them harm.
