	Star Trek: Spacedock
		Space Station McKinley, or Spacedock as it is generally called, is a large orbital malti-starship facility.
		Spacedock is eesentially the shape of a very large mushroom capable of fitting a Sovereign-class starship inside the upper structure along with other large vessels.
		Spacedock's main function is to provide a base from which to launch new vessels and undertake various upgrades and repairs on older vessels.

		Secondary Spacedock is located on one of the large modules near the bottom of the station.
		Spacedock Control is located in the central area of the docking tower.
		Spacedock Control is also one of the best places to view the docked ships because of the windows looking out over the docking bay.

		At this size it is still possible for Earth Spacedock and the four spacedocks seen in TNG to have the same size.
		We have to ignore the similarities of the two doors, of course, and the actual shuttlebay door of the spacedock could be located anywhere in the lower sections of the spacedock where the outer walls are vertical.
		The starbase is another redress of the orbital office complex and the Regula science station.

	Spacedock Logs
		This was McKinley Station, an orbital construction facility and planetary defense system.
		McKinley hung out in space like a giant spider and as she approached she saw the ship, her ship floating along with it.
		Her breath caught for a moment as she made a wide circle around the Marakesh and the station to get a view of the vessel.

	U.S.S. Excelsior NX-2000: General Overview
		By the end of 2282, the USS Excelsior, NX-2000 was assigned to the command of Captain James Styles, and ordered out of San Francisco Fleet Yards orbital facility to Spacedock, Sol, where she would take on her crew, resupply, and begin her trial runs.
		As the Enterprise sped away from Spacedock, it seemed a natural chance for Starfleet Command to see what exactly the Excelsior could do and to prove the naysayers once and for all that the Excelsior was the next evolution in both space frame and propulsion design.
		The complexity of Dr. Tokogawa’s design was its downfall and the Excelsior class returned to spacedock under Impulse power, and the NX-2000 returned to drydock to have its M/ARA drive removed and replaced with a more conventional NNEC Generation 5 M/ARA warp drive.

		Yes, McKinley Station and Spacedock still orbited, their huge structures now visible from the Earth's surface.
		Marsden was walking through the corridors considering trying to do some of the more sensitive repair work on the anti-sing drive herself overnight when she spotted something that positively should not have been there: Ensign Arroyo.
		Therefore, Spacedock Control didn't give it a second thought when she requested permission to leave in the USS Navigator.

		Powered by a warp 5, faster-than-light engine and under command of Captain Jonathan Archer, she was rushed out of orbital drydock on a special diplomatic mission to return a stranded Klingon warrior to the Klingon homeworld of Q'onos.
		She was immediately placed in Earth- orbital drydock for major overhaul and refit.
		Her first destination was the planet Deneb IV, to inspect the new Farpoint Space Station which was built by the planet's rather primitive race.

		Later, the Enterprise was moved to McKinley Station for final checks prior to her maiden mission.
		Spider (McKinley type) and standard dock (from the movies) are just used as "anchors" to assemble the parts.
		Fuse the basic framework, add in major components such as warp coils, core, impulse engines, weapons, shield generators, the habitable sections/modules and wrap it in the skin which are assembled in panels.

		Each ship will be assigned to a set of these stations and will use them to communicate to station command staff.
		Because stations are called to service and repair those vessels that dock, it is a necessity to have manufacturing facilities for those items that cannot be replicated to acceptable specifications.
		Spacedock: [There aren't numerical levels in this part of the station, but the listing here gives an idea of what is here.

	Re: Length of V'Ger vs. Spacedock
		So any actual defenses, Spacedock, the orbital shipyards, orbital weapons platforms, planetary shields, ect would not likely have come immediately into play until the Borg cube got closer.
		We have also seen many times that Earth has a fairly extensive orbital infrastucture as part of the San Francisco shipyards, which among other things include the drydocks and orbital offices as seen in ST:TMP, and "Generations".
		If Earth's orbital infrastructure is as extensive as Mars' Utopia Planita shipyards, then there are dozens apon dozens of drydocks, and large orbital stations (see VGR's "Relativity" for how extensive this can be).

		It is significantly larger than Earth Spacedock (seen in ST3), even though the two structures have the same superficial appearance.
		Earth Spacedock is described in the ST3 ILM size charts as being approximately 12000' (3600m) in diameter and 15250' (4600m) tall (thanks to Ryan McReynolds for bringing this to my attention).
		Further more for spacedock 1 to be a ship yards they would have to INCREASE its size so that it could accomodate the larger ship.

		Obviously whoever had downed the McKinley had taken a lot of time to make the blow a glancing one; in her opinion to bring down the shuttle with minimum casualties.
		Standing on unsteady legs by the McKinley, the lifeless body of Commander Cortez hanging limply from his quivering arms, the source of the bellow spoke again.
		Robert had derived almost endless delight in the tales, which he had told her were called "cartoons." Beyond the lesson of intelligence equalizing or neutralizing brute strength in the eternal survival struggle, Zihar hadn't been able to make much sense of the cartoons.

		Your senior staff will be joining you, and your ship will dock at McKinley station to repair that damage from the ion storm last week.
		The airlock began to retract from the ship, cutting it off from any entrance other than getting out into the spacedock's giant, airless hold, moving to the Explorer along a support girder or freely, and blowing the emergency bolts on an external airlock, all of which were extremely doubtful.
		J'hana, abord McKinley station, stopped punching the ensign she was currently decimating.

		Dorian shook his head at the ripple of laughter from some of the crewmen, except for Zeeska’kiz’zatak, or ‘Zee’ as he was frequently called, the Zaranite cocked his head in puzzlement at the comment but then merely nodded and said nothing.

		As for the reason I didn't count San Francisco Yards and Earth Station McKinley as two separate shipyards, you may notice that San Francisco Yards is referenced in the TOS era but never in the TNG era.
		Earth Station McKinley is referenced in the TNG era but never in the TOS era.
		Now in order for Spacedock 1 to be a ship yards it would have to be bigger then the one seen in ST3, ST4, ST5, and ST6.

		Oreias was staring out the large windows that lined the connecting walkway from McKinley to the USS Cheyenne.
		The half of his mind that was too small to take in such an amazing view was staring at his slight reflection in the window, caused by the light differential between the walkway and the station interior.
		He was wearing jeans, the blue almost fading out into the blue of McKinley station, a pink and blue striped white button down, laying open over a bright red tee and a pale jacket.

		Scanning the bridge, he said, "Commander Barris has informed me that we are ready to leave spacedock." he took one last look at the shining blue world on the viewscreen before him, "Ensign, take us out." he nodded slightly.
		The young man's hands flew over the CONN. Space Station McKinley's huge docking arms slowly lifted, and the USS Visigoth glided away, its sleek Sovereign-class lines making it a shark trolling for distant stars.
		Birds of Prey swarmed the shipyards, some falling prey to orbital guns, but most destroying their targets: paralyzed Jem'Hadar ships.

		There are reportedly hundreds of Starbases (notice the numbering system, with Spacedock as Starbase 1) at least equivilant to Spacedock throughout the Federation, and as we know from various episodes, most are not in orbit of major Federation member worlds, which also likely have their own yards.
		Earth Spacedock and Starbase 74 are clearly much larger than Deep Space Nine, so they undoubtedly account for two of the three starbases that dwarf Deep Space Nine.
		One hundred fifty three additional orbital and deep interstellar facilities are thought to make up the bulk of their off-world assets.
