Quark: I want you to try something for me. Take a sip of this.
Garak: What is it?
Quark: A human drink. It's called root beer.
Garak: I don't know.
Quark: Come on. Aren't you just a little bit curious?
Quark: What do you think?
Garak: It's vile.
Quark: I know. It's so bubbly and cloying and happy.
Garak: Just like the Federation.
Quark: But you know what's really frightening?
If you drink enough of it, you begin to like it.
Garak: It's insidious.
Quark: Just like the Federation.

You started the video wrong. Major Kira would rip you an new one. It wasn't seized by the UFP, it was seized by the Bajorian Milita. Then under the provisional government, the UFP was asked to administer.

[elroyscout]

She may be ugly, she may have been built by the enemy and one time it actively tried to kill everyone, but home sweet home.

[SpottedSharks]

The station was not seized by the Federation after Cardassia abandoned it. The Bajoran provisional government invited the Federation to administer the facility.

Deep Space Nine is my favorite Star Trek series by far.

[zarander]

DS9 was a damn good show. A wide variety of characters, everyone one of them interesting and never dull. Alien costumes were really good and natural looking. The character arcs were dynamic and engaging. I can say it was the best.

[nicholasmorsovillo]

Don't forget after the first encounter with the Dominion DS9 became the home port for Starfleet's first dedicated warship the U.S.S. Defiant NX-74205 under the command of Commander then Captain Benjamin Sisko.

[shadowstar]

That ending was epic and fitting for such an awesome sci-fi location.

[HappisakVideos]

Spoken during the Klingon Task Force vs DS9 battle. Often untranslated on screen.

Martok: They fight like Klingons!
Gowron: Then they can die like Klingons!

[nihilisticpoet]

The best Star Trek series to date.

In fact, you can remove Star Trek from the prefix title and Deep Space Nine would still stand as a testimony to a groundbreaking series.

"Right now this station has 5000 photon torpedoes ready to launch." - Captain Benjamin Sisko

[danielhaire]

Nearly 90 phaser arrays and 48 Torpedo Launchers. Other than lacking Quantum Warherads (as far as we ever saw), DS9 had more firepower than 5 Sovereign classes or 7 Galaxy Classes.

I knew DS9 was tough, but not that tough!!

[noahturner]

I will not rest until I stand with you again, in this place where I belong.

[tennoshenaniganizer]

Love the new animations and tech sounds

[D.E.X]

Makes me want to go back and watch the full series again. Thanks.

[arklestudios]

IIRC, the Rio Grande is the only Runabout we never see get destroyed, so as far as we know, it's still there come "What We Leave Behind."

[sonicguyver]

It was amazing watching DS9 go from a rickety junkpile that could barely hold its own against one battle ship to a heavily armed and armored base that could stand up to a fleet.

i always loved the station design. to me, it was beautiful
