A research station (also called a space laboratory or science station) is a facility specializing in scientific research. Research stations may be space stations or surface facilities.
Research stations often performed scientific research that was too dangerous to conduct in populated areas. Some stations, like the Regula I Space Laboratory, also conducted highly classified research. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)
