USS Liberty

Sagan-class • NCC-92913 • Fourth Fleet

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

Sirius Expeditionary Squadron, also known as Sirius Squadron, is a squadron centered around the Odyssey-class USS Sirius under the command of Commodore Matt Rourke, based out of Gateway Station in the Midgard Sector on the Federation’s Beta Quadrant frontier. The squadron serves two missions: the secondary mission of supporting the sector-wide responsibilities of the Gateway Station, and its primary mission as a rapid deployment force beyond Federation borders.

In its expeditionary capacity, Sirius Squadron stands ready to deploy outside 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 is capable of operating 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.

Outside of such deployments, the squadron maintains readiness in case of need, and supports Gateway Station’s operations. From its HQ, its ships pursue Starfleet’s mission to maintain regional stability through diplomatic and humanitarian operations and pursue avenues of scientific research and exploration into the former territories of the Old Romulan Star Empire. Since the escalation of tensions with the Klingon Empire and their interest in the territory of the fallen Star Empire, Sirius Squadron has been a cornerstone of protecting both the Federation border, and Starfleet’s allies in the Romulan Republic.

Rosewood had set foot on a thousand dustbowls like Tau Mervana during his Starfleet career.

The Blackbird’s bridge was a cramped compartment at the fore of the ship.
