STAR TREK: DS9 “DEEP SPACE NINE” WOODEN STUDY MODEL

An enormous wooden study model of the famous space station “Deep Space Nine” featured in every episode of the Star Trek series of the same name. Built by the Cardassians to process ‘uridium' ore during their occupation of the planet Bajor during hostilities with the United Federation of Planets the station was eventually abandoned by its government when the Cardassian Union withdrew from Bajor. The UFP was asked to administer the station and maintain a presence there to bolster the strength of the impoverished Bajoran system. When a stable wormhole was discovered by “Commander Benjamin Sisko” (Avery Brooks) in the nearby ‘Denorios Belt’ the station was moved to become the stopover point for ships going from one end of the wormhole to the other. This wooden model features the same impressive alien design as the feature models used on the show with six curved docking pylons, a habitat ring and a pair of sculpted Styrofoam details made to represent ‘the promenade’ and ‘Ops’ on the top and ‘reactor control’ on the bottom. One emitter array is present on the habitat ring. This impressive model is capable of being hung from three cords attached to the upper pylons. The item measures approx. 50.5 inches tall and 72 inches in diameter.
