USS Liberty is a Sagan-class light explorer commanded by Captain Elara Galcyon. Assigned to Sirius Squadron, her primary duty is deep space exploration beyond the Federation’s Beta Quadrant frontier. Based out of the squadron’s headquarters, Gateway Station, Liberty ventures into former Romulan Star Empire territory within the Midgard Sector and beyond. There, even missions close to home are shrouded in mystery and challenge, with Starfleet only now able to enter these vast swathes of space mere light-years from the border. Exploring the remnants of the fallen Empire, Liberty faces new challenges every day as she charts, surveys, and analyses the region. More often than not, she operates independently from her squadron, though can conduct reconnaissance operations, provide scientific evaluation, and offer tactical support should the formation be deployed in its entirety.

Sirius Expeditionary Squadron is a unit centered around the Odyssey-class USS Sirius under the command of Commodore Matt Rourke. Sirius Squadron stands ready to deploy outside or on the fringes of Federation territory at short notice to respond to emerging situations across the galaxy. With multiple versatile and powerful ships at its disposal, the squadron can operate independently and without support for extended periods, and is flexible enough to face a range of missions, including under volatile circumstances where objectives and conditions can quickly change. While this profile often leads Sirius Squadron to respond to geopolitical crises, the unit’s versatility make it equally suited emergent scientific investigations.
The main unit, organised around the Sirius herself, is an element of several powerful ships each able to take the lead or act independently depending on the mission’s needs. Deployed together, they are a supremely well-rounded and capable unit. Two additional divisions provide specialist support. The first, headed by the USS Redemption, acts as an operations element to provide engineering, humanitarian, or diplomatic services. The second, headed by the USS Liberty, fulfils dedicated exploratory or scientific missions. The divisions may deploy independently or in support of one another, depending on operational needs.

‘…the Vaadwaur didn’t stick around for more than one volley. That was enough to at least rupture eighty-three percent of habitat domes. Which means eighty-three percent of the inhabitants of Proxima IXa are confirmed dead; around a hundred and four thousand people.’ StratOps aboard the [...]

The transporter beam faded to plunge them into the dying depths of the USS Liberty. Once, these halls had shone with Starfleet optimism and efficiency. Now, they were stained with the blood-red hues of emergency lighting and acrid smoke, shadows jittering off bulkheads as display screens sputtered [...]

Rosewood felt the half-inch drop to the deck of the transporter pad as the beam faded, its light and the sight of the burning skies of Innes leaving him blinded in the gloom of the Blackbird’s transporter room. Which meant he didn’t see it coming when Cassidy grabbed him and slammed him into [...]

Proxima V was fire ringed with metal. The planet itself was hydrogen turned fluid through some of the fiercest pressure in the universe, gaseous hydrogen and helium floating atop for clouds of orange-yellow flecked with fierce gold that gleamed like flame. The ring, however, was metal and man-made, [...]
