Starbase 1 is on of the oldest starbases ever. Reed Class,(in honour of the tactical officer of the UES Enterprise NX01). constructed in 2173 and is still in full operation, in orbit of Alpha Centuri.

Schematics: 

Starbase 1 is the second starbase built by the Federation, and is the first to have internal docking ports for starship vessels, (the later Spacedock class of starbase developed this and managed to balance the dock and habitat considerations). Starbase 1 was and still is a Starfleet personal only instillation, with no civilians onboard. as a result of this there is no habitat section as on the space dock class instead there are four docks, (2 upper, 2 lower)and crew quarters and Facilities as on a Starship. One interesting feature of the Reed Class Starbase is the ability to operate underwater for long periods of time

In 2382 Starbase 1 was attacked by the Suliban Kabal under orders from the mysterious leader of the Temporal Cold War faction, The Brotherhood, (Romulan) otherwise known as, "Future Guy". Captain Typhuss James Nerys,(descendent of he famous freedom fighter/terrorist Kira Neyres) was the commanding officer at the time and was able to co-ordinate the station's defences with the remains of the 9th fleet, (Earth guard) to defeat the Suliban fleet. Unnofficailly he was helped by in this endevour by a female,'temporal agent' suposedly from the 31st century, going by the name, 'Chloe McCarthy'.
