Orpheus Mining Colony
From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference
The Orpheus Mining Colony was a mining complex on Luna, Earth's moon. It was established in 2090 and was still in operation in the 22nd century.
The patch that all miners wear, and the insignia of the station has a Latin saying on it "sine qua non", which literally means "without which not", that translated into something essential or cannot live without.

[edit] History
The colony was established by Paxton's father in 2090, where he built it from the ground up. The colony could not use artificial gravity because it would be impractical, so miners and employees were to required to take injections of Myofibrilin. (ENT: "Demons")
[edit] Relocation
In 2155, Orpheus was owned and operated by John Frederick Paxton, left to him by his father. Paxton converted the facility into a warp-driven vessel capable of interplanetary travel. Paxton was also the leader of the anti-alien movement Terra Prime which was headquartered in the colony. (ENT: "Demons", "Terra Prime")
