List of episodes

"Civil Defense" is the 53rd episode of the television series Star Trek: Deep Space Nine, the seventh episode of the third season. The episode originally aired on television in syndication on November 7, 1994.

Set in the 24th century, the series follows the adventures on Deep Space Nine, a space station located near a stable wormhole between the Alpha and Gamma quadrants of the Milky Way Galaxy, near the planet Bajor, as the Bajorans recover from a long, brutal occupation by the imperialistic Cardassians. In this episode, the station goes on lock-down as a result of a security program dating back to the days when it was a Cardassian-controlled mining station.

This episode was written by Mike Krohn and directed by Reza Badiyi.[1]
