Darwin genetic research station.
The Darwin Genetic Research Station (or Darwin Station) is a Federation science facility located on planet Gagarin IV and headed by Dr. Sara Kingsley.
In the late 2350s and 2360s, a research project at the Darwin station developed human children who had an aggressive immune system, capable of attacking disease organisms before they entered a human body. The children's antibodies were also capable of attacking human beings, a fact not discovered until 2365, when the entire crew of the USS Lantree was killed after exposure to the children.
The scientific staff of the Darwin Station were also afflicted by the antibodies and suffered symptoms resembling hyperaccelerated aging, but a transporter-based technique was successful in restoring all station personnel to normal. (TNG: "Unnatural Selection")
- The Darwin Station was named for naturalist Charles Darwin (1809-1882), who postulated the theory of evolution. The exterior of the station was a matte painted created by Illusion Arts. The painting was later re-used in other episodes, including as the science station in "Starship Mine" and "Descent".
