Historical Events

• January 21st: The surviving crew of USS Cavalier (ND-626, Cavalry class), is found alive and in good health. Their recovery is a long-awaited positive media event in the middle of the postwar atmosphere of disillusionment, ambiguity and anxiety.
• A conflict erupts with the Tarn.
• The USS Verdun and USS Constantine, both Messier class, are pressed to duty against the Tarn. Both disappear: the Constantine without a trace and the Verdun until 2366.
• The last Messier to be retired, USS Braxton (CA-195), is on her way to be preserved in the recently founded Starfleet Museum when her warp drive system creates a catastrophic asymmetry and tears the ship into pieces. The skeleton crew of fifteen is killed instantly.
• The Ottawa subclass of the Hercules transports starts to receive significant warp engine upgrades.
• The last Djartanna destroyers are removed from active service.
