Ds9 would be completely insignificant that far in the future

[-] HobbitFoot 2 points 16 hours ago

Earth has been known to keep Starbase 1 around for centuries and that space station has nowhere near the historic significance as Deep Space 9 did for Bajor.

I doubt it would have been kept as the space station serving the Bajoran wormhole, but I could see it kept in the system preserved as a historic ship.

That is of it didn't blow up due to the Burn.

You’re talking about the sacred home of The Emissary of The Prophets. I wouldn’t be shocked if they kept the place around just so Bajorans could go there to pray for his return.

It depends on if the station survived that long bring operational and if it survived the Burn.

I doubt that DS9 would be the main station serving the Bajoran wormhole even if it was preserved.

DS9 ran on fusion power, so in theory there wouldn't have been any dilithium in use (though the same couldn't necessarily be said for docked or orbiting ships).

But I tend to think the station itself should be gone by now, unless they decided to preserve it for historical reasons or something.

It's only sitting next to a portal to the other side of the galaxy that also happens to be the home of a species that exists outside of linear time - nothing significant there!
