I’ve been to K7. The Klingons really messed up the pool and the bowling alley. But the bar is top notch now that they’ve gotten all the tribbles off the station.
Yes... I very much would love to see more space station videos. K-7, I imagine would have a memorial habitat for the Klingon Empire visitors... Complete with a monument of The Great Tribble Purge... To honor the Klingons' achievements, of course.
Yes because the TOS era is vastly becoming more interesting, budget restraints of the 60's show hiding a vast amount of stuff that we didn't get to see.
I personally like that style. Even though it was designed before the ISS was I my opinion you can see that there is some evolution from ISS to the K series. I'd enjoy seeing more space station content. DS9 and Babylon 5 were some of my favorites growning up. Different points of view and both equally entertaining.
K7 was the first station i thought looked like a station till they showed Earth Station 1 i always thought K7 was a little small but was an awesome introduction in to a federation trading post I would love to see more on Federation Space Stations and how they evolved from ISS to DS9 I think that would be an awesome episode =)
The K station was such a quirky, bubbly, "This is what space looked like to people in the '60s" model. I'd love to see it show up again. :) Definitely keep doing station videos; I'd love your take on whether it's the station in ST:TMP or ST:TWOK in which everything is upside down. Question though--what's your perspective date for these videos? When you say that you can still visit station K7 "today", when is "today"?
Oh stars, EXCELLENT video! 😁 Fantastic background on the K class station and I have to say I LOVED seeing the Leif Erickson as one of the visiting starships! 😁💙😁 Thank you for these informative and entertaining videos!
I've always called this station the "google Krome icon 7 " because of the weird markings on the station's disk that make it look like it's retractable.
And here I thought that was a standard Federation base station design, the one in "Trouble with Tribbles" was *named* K-7, since it was the 7th on the border with the Klingon Empire. The same ones on the Romulan border would be labelled R-?.
K-7 was the inspiration for the Complex, Regula One/Marcuslabs and all the others. "Far Beyond the Stars" novel illustration had a nice k7 stylized version of station _Deep Space Nine_ .
A great video, thanks. I loved the shots of the Leif Erikson orbing K-7. Nice touch. Now, you have to do Star Fleet Headquarters from the Franz Joseph Technical Manual. :)
Oh, I don't believe it! It's the AMT Interplanetary UFO Mystery Ship at minutes 6:16 and 9:20! I had that model (glow in the dark, no less) when I was a kid. Being a Star Trek nut, I incorporated it into my personal Star Trek universe and created an alien species to crew it. Nice to see it flying in your Star Trek universe as well.
Thank you for this back story. I asked you for it once and you came through. They almost look like parts of starship. Too bad the Federation wouldn't listen to Starfleet when it came to arming the stations. You do a great job writing out the stories 👏 👍 😀.
Fitting end to k7 as long as there was no tribbles Side note the top view of the station looked a little like the liberator from brakes 7 Keep up the good work
The K class is rather unique, though I always thought in my mind that the modules on eack of those arms could be unclamped from the main station body in case of an emergency and sort of have their own sort of propulsion system to evacuate personnel, but also keep whatever they housed safe as well, because on some angles they look like the fronts of starships with the long neck attached to the station - just my thoughts anyway, ha ha. Was nice seeing a Walker class in the vicinity of the station as well, it was a lovely treat
I would absolutely love more space station videos. To me it sparked a question about how they would be built out in the extreme edges of Federation territory. Considering the standardized format so many stations, construction likely happened in a shipyard & transported to it location. Perhaps because I love to Ptolemy transport ship or because it was visible in one of the first scene of the video that is immediately what came to mind. Obviously building sections to be transported & assembled, but what if it was towed complete. On the upper saucer there is a protrusion that looks like it is the same diameter as the Ptolemy cargo clamp. If the station was flipped on its axis with the upper saucer below the Ptolemy saucer and the arms in a Y pattern.
The K7 class station came with a small enterprise model . The Enterprise is 900 feet long . That is 300 meters . That is showing the statio to be n a mile in diameter at least . The tech manual has 20th century versions of specifications .
Thank you so much for the support :) And yes, more videos about the Earth/ Romulan War will be coming... Did you see the video on the NX Class Refit? That one explained a lot about that war :)
What about K-13? If you play a TOS-Fed, one of your missions will take you to K-13, where you encounter neural parasites and Na'Kuhl temporal agents. At the end of the mission the station is sent into the past to be rediscovered in 2410.

So noted Grim :)
I can see a web series based on the K7 space station much like DS9.
Nice inclusion of the AMT Interplanetary UFO Mystery ship @6:16 😉👍
AKA the 'Leif Ericsson'.
Out of all the space stations we see in star trek I've got to say this is near the top of my favourite list.
It's a very interesting design!
@@TriAngulumAudioStudios that it definitely was
I really like Starbase 375 from the early Dominion War episodes. I always wished we got to see in action against a Dominion attack.
The K station was such a quirky, bubbly, "This is what space looked like to people in the '60s" model. I'd love to see it show up again. :) Definitely keep doing station videos; I'd love your take on whether it's the station in ST:TMP or ST:TWOK in which everything is upside down.

Love seeing a few glimpses of the Lief Ericsson!
Also I have a feeling that some very annoyed engineers hung that "Welcome to K-7 now go home" sign on the wall of one of the shuttlebays
3:59 "Welcome to K7
now go home"
lol
Oh stars, EXCELLENT video! 😁
Fantastic background on the K class station and I have to say I LOVED seeing the Leif Erickson as one of the visiting starships! 😁💙😁
Thank you for these informative and entertaining videos!
Glad you enjoyed it! And you're very welcome :)
The TOS and TMP eras are the best in Trek history in my honest opinion. I just love everything about them. The aesthetic, music, etc...
Damn you came up with a beliecable yet exciting story for a space station! Kudos!
How about an episode on the doomed Epsilon IX station? I’ve always been curious to learn more.
I've always called this station the "google Krome icon 7 " because of the weird markings on the station's disk that make it look like it's retractable.
Sadly, it isnt THAT exciting :P
Niiiiice! These are cool starbase designs that don't get discussed much.
First time I have ever seen any real attempt to address this station. Great work!
Always loved the design. Think Matt Jeffries did an excellent job when he designed it.
And here I thought that was a standard Federation base station design, the one in "Trouble with Tribbles" was *named* K-7, since it was the 7th on the border with the Klingon Empire. The same ones on the Romulan border would be labelled R-?.
I would love to see more video around star bases 😊
I was proud of the TOS series actually building a new model for the episode
You and me both!
K-7 was the inspiration for the Complex,
Regula One/Marcuslabs and all the others.
"Far Beyond the Stars" novel illustration had a nice k7 stylized version of station _Deep Space Nine_ .
Good video. On a humorous note, every time you said k-class i thought k-cup and the base kinda looks like a coffee machine.
A great video, thanks. I loved the shots of the Leif Erikson orbing K-7. Nice touch. Now, you have to do Star Fleet Headquarters from the Franz Joseph Technical Manual. :)
Great video! Space stations don't get enough respect!
Oh, I don't believe it! It's the AMT Interplanetary UFO Mystery Ship at minutes 6:16 and 9:20! I had that model (glow in the dark, no less) when I was a kid.

I've got a model of the K-7 Space Station it's really cool looking
Thank you for this back story. I asked you for it once and you came through. They almost look like parts of starship. Too bad the Federation wouldn't listen to Starfleet when it came to arming the stations. You do a great job writing out the stories 👏 👍 😀.
Of course, all the space stations, like the ships, all have gravity plates!
« Welcome to K-7! Now go home! » LMAOOOOO
;)
I love it, is there a beta canon story of Earth Space Dock?
There are Beta Canon stories for everything! :P
Fitting end to k7 as long as there was no tribbles
Side note the top view of the station looked a little like the liberator from brakes 7
Keep up the good work

This was an absolute treat!
Groovy design 👌
Yeah baby! Yeah! ;)
Wonderful design
Agreed :)

Will there be a beta canon video about the orbital facility from Star Trek TMP that Kirk departed from with Scotty along with it's variants
Great video!!! Love bases and space stations, please do more videos on them.
Such a good channel
I always thought this was a better thought out design and Earth Spacedock though smaller than I thought.
thank you very much for is this Truth OR Myth BETA- The K Class Space Station
Was the operation of the KC module supervised by the Sunshine Band?
I enjoyed this video, I would love to see more! Thank you❤
An efficient design not my favourite but good enough for its purpose
The K7 class station came with a small enterprise model . The Enterprise is 900 feet long . That is 300 meters .
That is showing the statio to be n a mile in diameter at least .
The tech manual has 20th century versions of specifications .
Nicely done:)
Thanks George! :)
Early as always and love to see more of your videos, hope you could do a video about the Romulan Earth War and it ships from alpha and beta cannon
Thank you so much for the support :) And yes, more videos about the Earth/ Romulan War will be coming... Did you see the video on the NX Class Refit? That one explained a lot about that war :)
@@TriAngulumAudioStudios of course i have seen it, i have seen it all
Then you already know Ive done LOTS of videos about the war, and the ships from Alpha and Beta canon :P
Another great and informative vid!
Station K9 must have been a real dog.
Or be named for its bite...
Ah yes ... the Air BNB of the Federation. :P
Nice one thank you.
😃
Could you do a video about sleepers ships such as the SS Botany Bay and the fate of the SS Valiant that was lost near the galaxy edge?
Pod kc often played host to the sunshine band
Pretty good story.
Thanks :)
Built by the Starfleet engineer core
Ain’t no ds9 or b5 but I do believe it was the first on tv. 1764 defiant right?
💚 live long and prosper long life and good health🖖
Was the station in the first Kelvin timeline film an updated k7?
No it was not...
How about starfleet headquarters space station
Is there a video about spacedoxk 1
What is Spacedock 1? Do you mean Earth Spacedock or Starbase 1?
id rather go to DS9
Booooooooooooo Wendy Booooooooo! ;) :P
what there's to many troubles with Tribbles..🙈
The only K-class stations are in Star Trek Online are K-7 and Drozana Station, which is owned by the Ferengi.
That isnt true, K7 was in the original series, and others are through out Beta Canon! And the Number K-7, means there are at least 6 others!
There's also Station K-13, which shows up in the TOS Captain's storyline, and in the mission "Echoes of Light".
What about K-13? If you play a TOS-Fed, one of your missions will take you to K-13, where you encounter neural parasites and Na'Kuhl temporal agents. At the end of the mission the station is sent into the past to be rediscovered in 2410.
Good station, not a parking garage as you say.
