The Neptune Squadron is an unit used for exploration under the command of Fleet Captain Mero Tomuya stationed at Deep Space 27 on some of the farthest reaches of the Federation borders. The Neptune Squadron is at the forefront of fleet exploration through its diverse officers and varied ships each of which help to make the division stronger.
