USS Polaris (NCC-80001)

While research and development activities typically occur on starbases and outposts within Federation territory, sometimes the greatest discoveries are made amongst the stars. This is the mission of the Polaris Squadron.

USS Polaris

Odyssey-class • NCC-80001 • Polaris Advanced Research Squadron • Fourth Fleet • Managed by FADM James Neidlinger

The USS Polaris is an Odyssey-class heavy explorer that serves as the flagship of Polaris Squadron and home of the Advanced Science, Technology and Research Activity. The Polaris is equipped with cutting edge laboratories, sensor suites, and analysis cores that give it near-parity with top-of-the-line R&D facilities, while having a degree of mobility such facilities do not have.  It is also well appointed for frontier diplomatic duties, but it has some tactical drawbacks due to its size and purpose that are augmented by Polaris Squadron’s other vessels.

The stories of Polaris Squadron are rated 2-2-2 for mature subject matter, including violence, language and sexual content.
