About

Reserves

The USS Tesla (NCC-74438) is a Nova-class Federation starship operating in the 25th Century. The Tesla currently serves in the Fourth Fleet’s Task Force 72. She is under the strict leadership of Commander Tia Dalia Savik. The sturdy little starship has seen many an exciting mission during her service to Starfleet and looks forward to many more years of service under the daring captains of the United Federation.

Originally built for small scientific exploration missions, the USS Tesla was retrofitted to survive longer more advanced scientific missions. The Tesla has just come under the command of a new captain, and both Captain and crew are navigating the complex dealings of creating a brand new working relationship. Captain Savik faces several challenges with her new crew, who she views as a band of misfits that she has been saddled with due to being a new captain, but she is determined to whip them into shape… a goal which will not be so easily achieved considering the antics of her somewhat rowdy crew.
