You can mix Starfleet in there, but the game allows you to play very much outside the usual Federation playground. DS9 adds Bajorans, Cardassians, Ferengi, Klingons and Trill (with neat special rules about their different hosts' abilities), as well as professions like merchants, smugglers, pirates, spies, politicians, rebels and clergy. This is a game that works with species templates and profession overlays. Any of them could serves as a launching point for your series.
Consequently, there's also an original mining base described in the mix, as well as the 8 other Deep Space stations.
The Gamma Quadrant, the DMZ and the Neutral Zone are obvious, but what about the Federation's borders with the Tholians, Gorn or - eep! - Borg space? One of the nice things about Last Unicorn is that they weren't afraid to stray off canon and fill in the world's blanks. Though the focus in on the Bajoran system, the game describes or suggests a number of interesting frontiers to set your game in. In the DS9 version, though you probably have access to a support ship, your characters inhabit a station on the frontier (it doesn't have to be DS9). Last Unicorn's original Star Trek game was based on TNG, but they also produced alternative core books based on TOS and DS9, repeating the rules, but introducing a different feel, graphics and example stats in each of them.
