	Qwika - Starfleet
		Starfleet's early history was left obscure until the series Star Trek: Enterprise demonstrated that an Earth Starfleet had been operating prior to the founding of the Federation for at least 10 years, as Starfleet conducted the Warp 2 and 3 tests and several high-ranking officers referred to graduating from Starfleet Academy.
		Starfleet's Academy is located in the Presidio of San Francisco, a park on the northern tip of the San Francisco Peninsula, with some buildings being further inland.
		Starfleet ranks and insignia are similar to those used by the United States Navy.

	Starfleet Information
		In the Star Trek fictional universe, Starfleet is the military defense, research, diplomacy, and exploration force of the United Federation of Planets (UFP) with – as of the late 24th century – hundreds of starships and starbases at its disposal.
		Starfleet has been shown to handle diplomatic, scientific, and military missions, although their main mandate seems to be one of peaceful exploration in the search of sentient life.
		In the early years of Starfleet, as seen in Star Trek: Enterprise, Starfleet's mission is purely exploration and is not military in any sense except for weapons designed for defensive capabilities until the retrofitting of the Enterprise and the incorporation of MACOs after the Xindi attack on Earth.

	STAR TREK IS AWESOME - Featuring information about Star Trek Armada
		In the Starfleet of the Federation, its predecessor the Earth Starfleet, the Bajoran Milita and the Klingon Defense Force, the tendency towards using the ranks equivalent to the planet Earth's naval and ground forces exists.
		Because Starfleet rank insignia usually follow a simple geometric progression of circles, stripes, blocks, triangles or other symbols, many fans often speculate what unusual combinations or very large numbers of these symbols would designate in terms of rank, or what the insignia of modern or historic ranks not depicted in the show would be.
		The rank insignia worn by O’Brien was confusing, however, in that he was often addressed as "Chief", but appeared to wear the insignia of a Lieutenant (in the episode "Contagion" he is actually addressed as "Lieutenant").
