Star Trek: Babylon 5

As my previous crossover project, Stargate: First Contact, will soon be completed, I thought it best if I have another one ready to go. And what do you know, I do...

It was the dawn of a new era for Mankind, ten years after the Earth-Romulan War. The Babylon Project was a dream given form. Its goal: to prevent another war by creating a place where Humans and aliens could work out their differences peacefully. It's a port of call – home away from home for diplomats, hustlers, entrepreneurs, and wanderers. Humans and aliens wrapped in two million, five-hundred thousand tons of spinning metal, all alone in the night. It can be a dangerous place, but it's our last best hope for peace.

The year is 2171. The name of the place is Babylon 5.

In the aftermath of the war, the United Federation of Planets is ratified in the Babylon system by the four allied powers; United Earth, Vulcan, Andor, and Tellar. Over the course of the next ten years, a large space station is constructed in the Babylon system, the home of a race made extinct during the war. The Federation’s military and exploration arm, Starfleet Command, administrate the station under the terms of the Babylon Treaty and representatives from all four powers, as well as ambassadors from Qo'noS, Romulus and Tholia, make a home on the station.
 
Agreed. Babel 5 I think would fit a little better, along with the treaty of babel. Granted it is your story though. I like the idea, and I still need to catch up on Stargate: First Contact
 
Xeris-tell the unbelievers to go away-I LOVE this! Run with it, baby! Make it SO!
 
Couldn't it be Babel Five, surely?

I thought about Babel 5, but I wanted to use the station and call it as it is.

Thanks, Mistral, I intend to. I'll give you one guess what the story will be called.
 
Sounds intriguing. Will there be any characters from ENT in it? And when can we expect the first installment?
 
Yeah, I'll definitely have to follow this one - sounds intriguing.

No offense, but I'm simply not a Stargate fan - that's why I didn't follow your other cross-over. I loved B-5, so you've got me with both barrels this time! :lol:

There are a few more chapters of Stargate: First Contact to finish off that story, and then I'll get started on this. I just wanted to give everyone some advanced warning, and yes there will be some ENT characters involved, quite a few in fact.

Hey, I don't expect everyone to be a fan of everything I do, ;), but did you at least give it a try?

Gorn and Orion will be a nice presence as well
 
I haven't actually forgotten about this, but it is on the backburner for now. I'll come back to it when other projects are done.

I still need to do more research on B5 so I can get the crossover right.

Orions are a definite, probably running rackets in down below. Not sure about the Gorn.
 
Sounds interesting. Any plans for an explanation of what happened to Babylons 1 through 4? I'm reminded of that Family Guy episode where Peter was under house arrest. He complained that watching TV was increasingly difficult because all the shows were starting to run together before turning on "Homicide: Life on Sesame Street."

^Oh, there'll be an explanation for the losses of B1-B4 but it won't be as mundane as what B5 said happened, at least not to B4.
 
This is one I'll definitely be looking forward to. I'm not usually a fan of crossovers between different shows, but as B5 and Trek are my two favorite shows, I'm very eager to see what you come up with. Your description so far sounds very intriguing. And I loved the ST-B5 fusion in your intro paragraph.

I hope that's not a pun on the Data B4!!! Sounds a great idea to echo other sentiments.
