Task Force 21

Fourth Fleet Frontier Operations

Task Force 21 is a forward-deployed unit of the Fourth Fleet assigned to frontier exploration and colonial support operations. Specifically, Task Force 21 surveys regions of space close to Federation territory to identify sites for new colonies, outposts, and resourcing operations, while also identifying and mitigating threats to the Federation’s most distant and vulnerable assets. Tasked as serving as a bulwark between the Federation and hostile actors, Task Force 21 has been charged with defending the Federation’s frontier borders with powers such as the Gorn Hegemony and Breen Confederacy in order to secure strategically-important systems and to put a stop to the ongoing raids against neutral worlds in these regions. Through diplomacy, innovation, and exploration, Task Force 21 strives to expand Federation influence and bring stability to volatile regions plagued by violence, despair, and chaos.

Where there has only been aggression, the Federation seeks to bear the olive branch and bring new worlds into the fold.

Where there has been only neglect, the Starfleet Corps of Engineers is building new border outposts and sophisticated defenses.

Where there has been only ignorance, Starfleet Science will shine a light on the mysteries of the Ionite Nebula and the unclaimed space beyond the border.

Task Force 21 exists to protect the innocent and ensure a bright new future for the Federation as it expands into frontier territories.
