USS Almagest (NCC-91870)

Constellation Explorer Squadron seeks to expand the boundaries of knowledge while strengthening the bonds of friendship, alliance, and loyalty. Constellation Squadron engages in this mission beyond Federation borders as well as within the decks and bulkheads of its own vessels. Charged with Starfleet’s earliest mission of exploration into the unkonwn, its crews specialise in solving scientific mysteries and parleying through diplomatic relationships. The unit is centred around the Constitution III-class USS Constellation, which has incorporated a team of Romulan Free State scientists among its crew to build a tenuous path towards alliance by coming together under a joint banner.

While Squadron Commander Taes began her mission of scientific cooperation with the Romulan Free State in September 2400 aboard the USS Sarek, the USS Constellation was launched in March 2401 at the height of the Dominion Incursion into the Deneb Sector. Subsequently, Constellation Squadron was formed in January 2401 to engage in its inaugural mission of discovery and diplomacy in the Delta Quadrant.
