At the Spearhead of Starfleet’s mission of exploration, the Horizon Heavy Cruiser Squadron is centred around its flagship, the USS Horizon. Its ships designed to Explore and support those who venture where the maps end and uncertainty begins.
Operating at the far reach of established Starfleet infrastructure, the squadron serves as both explorer and rapid response. Across distant reaches of Federation space and amongst the countless unexplored regions that lie in between and beyond it, the Horizon Heavy Cruiser Squadron’s ships carry the Federation’s spirit of discovery into the unknown. Their crews seeking out new life and new civilisations, forge lasting relationships with distant peoples and illuminate mysteries hidden beyond the edge of the stellar map.
Alone amongst the stars more often than not, the squadron embodies the self-reliance and determination required of Starfleet. Its vessels frequently the first face of the Federation encountered beyond its borders, acting as diplomats, scientists, protectors and emissaries in equal measure. Every voyage represents an opportunity to broaden the Federation’s understanding of the galaxy and every challenge overcome helps to ensure that the promise of exploration endures for future generations. For the officers and the Crews of the Horizon Heavy Cruiser Squadron, the unknown is not an obstacle to be feared, but an invitation to venture further.
