History
The Quasar Keshik was formed as a Trinary during the Golden Century as the command unit of Beta Galaxy. In the late 29th century following an engagement with several other Clans the Star Adders split the Command units from Alpha and Beta Galaxies and combining them with naval assets formed a separate Command Group. In the years that followed the Keshik grew from the initial Trinary to a Cluster in strength.[1]
Between 3059 and 3067 the Keshik was based on Sheridan.[2][3]
When Galaxy Commander Wyatt Talasko was elected saKhan of the Star Adders he kept control of Gamma Galaxy and attached the Quasar Keshik to it.[4]
