The Battle at Draco was a well known encounter in a region of space known as Draco during the Ur-Quan Slave War. In a rare instance when the Alliance had an upper-hand during the conflict, several Alliance star fleets moved against nearly defenseless Hierarchy Starbases.1 Commander Hayes participated in this battle and notes the similarities between certain parts of that battle and The Captain's early victory over an Ilwrath Avenger.

Though the battle took place in an area called Draco, it is unlikely that this is a reference to the Draconis constellation, which is far from the Coreward Front and within the Thraddash sphere of influence.
