Starbase 22 was a Federation starbase administered by Starfleet. This base was located in the Beta Quadrant.
During the first Federation-Klingon War, on stardate 4851.5, a cloaked Klingon raider, on a suicide mission, tailed the USS Saratoga into spacedock at this base, where it ignited its antimatter supply. The subsequent explosion destroyed most of the ships docked there. This assault, along with two other similar assaults at Starbase 12 and Starbase 19, resulted in the destruction of one-third of Starfleet's ships. (DIS: "The War Without, The War Within")
In 2259, the location of this starbase was labeled on a stellar cartography chart that was seen on the USS Enterprise's ready room viewscreen. (SNW: "Strange New Worlds", "Spock Amok", "A Quality of Mercy")
The starbase's location was labeled in a Federation star chart that was in Fleet Admiral Kirsten Clancy's office at Starfleet Headquarters in 2399 and on the bridge of the USS Titan-A in 2401. Starbase 22 was in or near to neutral space. (PIC: "Maps and Legends", "The Next Generation", "Disengage")
In 2401, this starbase's position was labeled on a star chart used by Captain William T. Riker during his attempt at finding the last known location of the SS Eleos XII. (PIC: "The Next Generation")
In 3190, the location of Starbase 22 was labeled on a star chart used by Commander Paul Stamets for tracking the movement of the Dark Matter Anomaly through the galaxy. (DIS: "The Examples")
