#s1e5 captive pursuit

thinking about making a Tosk OC as a form of self motivation.

Oh! O’Brien just said there’s 300 people on the station! Okay so it’s big but not, like, The Citadel in Mass Effect massive. I guess they did say it was a mining operation for the Cardassians so that makes sense!

I’m sure it’s just a result of the special effects for when this show came out but I’m having a difficult time understanding the scale of the station in Deep Space Nine. Sometimes they show the Enterprise and various war ships or transports docking onto various parts of DS9 but those ships look so huge in comparison to the station. But I would imagine a space station housing communities of this size and visitors would be way bigger?

I guess I also just have no clue how big the Enterprise actually is either, though. Keiko said there was a school and other families on the Enterprise so is it large in comparison to DS9?

That moment when you start watching Deep Space 9 to check out what's that Garashir everyone is talking about, realise that there is only one episode with a Bashir/Garak interaction in the whole first season and decide to root for O'Brien:

S1E5: Captive Pursuit.

How long do I need to wait for this?
