Drydock
______________________________________________________________________________________________

Platforms such as these are a simple, unglamorous but essential part of any major fleet. Essentially a large framework floating in space, the drydock facilitates the construction, maintenance and repair of Starships by providing for the storage of materials and tools, providing a power supply whilst onboard generator systems are not active, and generally supporting the activities of those working on the vessel. The Federation operates several types of drydock of various sizes and levels of sophistication. The picture showed above is one of the older ones in service.
