The Discovery of the Borg, and man's encounter with the
first known Borg Cube in 2365 (in the area of the J-45 system, 6500 light years
from the UFP) identified one of the greatest threats to the Federation's way of
life since the foundation of the UFP. In 2367, the first direct
confrontation between the Borg and Star Fleet's Forces took place in the Battle
of Wolf 359, resulting in the greatest losses to Star Fleet forces in it's long
history (over 11,000 lives and 39 starships).
Star Fleet Command quickly recognized the need to develop new and unique
technologies to counter this extreme threat to the Federation's continued
existence. One of the first facilities to receive any actual sample of
Borg technology as well as organic and cybernetic samples of Borg Drones killed
in the various encounters , was this facility, OutPost 070. This was
accompanied by a large influx of Federation scientists and military tacticians.
In addition, due to increased funding for the Borg studies, the facility went
through it's third major overhaul since it's inception. This included the
addition of additional cyber-neural gel packs and advanced isolinear sub
processing to the facility's data processing systems.
