Commander Jeffrey Blake is the Chief Engineering Officer of the USS Vesta. An engineer on the original Vesta class project at Beta Antares Shipyards, he followed the Vesta straight out of drydock, through its maiden voyage, and then to the stars beyond. His deep intimacy with the ship and every intricate details of it means there’s no one better to support her on a deep space mission, although he’s had to adjust to the long-range mission profile of the very ship he helped design and build.
