For the alternate reality counterpart, please see Regula I (alternate reality).

Regula I was a Federation Regula I-type scientific research laboratory orbiting the D-class planetoid Regula during the late 23rd century.

Located in the Mutara sector of the Beta Quadrant, Regula I was near the Mutara Nebula. The Ceti Alpha system was three days away at warp speed.

In the year 2285, the station housed Project Genesis and its team under the direction of Dr. Carol Marcus.

Using the USS Reliant in 2285, the station was attacked by Khan Noonien Singh in his attempt to steal the Genesis Device and lure Admiral James T. Kirk into a trap. Kirk captained the USS Enterprise and came to the station to investigate and rescue the remaining personnel. (Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan)

This station's quadrant of origin is inferred based on the position of Spock's last known position in the Mutara sector (DIS: "Light and Shadows") as seen in the star chart appearing in the Star Trek: Discovery episode "An Obol for Charon".
The exterior of Regula I was an inverted re-use of the orbital office complex that first appeared in Star Trek: The Motion Picture. It was recycled and "upscaled" to represent several other Federation starbases; for more information see studio models.
