USS Lexington, Nebula-class

Featured in Star Trek: Lexington

Service History
The USS Lexington (NCC-30405) is a 24th century Federation Nebula-class starship operated by Starfleet.

Captain Wil Thoms has been the commanding officer of this ship since 2365. In that year, the Lexington was assigned a planetary exploration mission in Sector 028. The ship was listed on the Starship Deploy Status chart that was on display in the courtroom of Starbase 173.

Chief Medical Officer, Doctor Elizabeth Lense, has served aboard the Lexington since graduating as valedictorian from the Starfleet Medical Academy in 2365.

In 2370, the Lexington rendezvoused with the USS Enterprise-D to load supplies for transport to the Taranko colony.

In early 2371, the Lexington was refitted with four science stations, three along the starboard wall and one at the starboard side of the aft stations. Mission Ops was now the second station, followed by environmental control. Two engineering stations rounded out the aft area, while three communications stations were present along the port wall.

The Lexington fought against the second Borg invasion at the Battle of Sector 001, in 2373. After the initial contact with the cube, the Lexington's first casualty report listed 96 dead, and 22 wounded.

After the Dominion War began, the Lexington was attached to the Seventh Fleet, a Federation Alliance Fleet, and attempted to stop the Jem'Hadar in the Tyra system. Only 14 out of 112 ships survived the assault.

In 2374, the Seventh Fleet took heavy losses again, this time at Sybaron. It was only at half strength at the time they were sent to Tibor Nebula, in the Kalandra sector, where they were going to attempt cut off the Dominion.

The following year, the fleet was assigned to launch a counteroffensive against the Cardassians in the Kalandra sector. Among the vessels assigned to the fleet at the time was the USS Destiny.

Since the end of the Dominion War, the Lexington patrolled the border of charted space in the Alpha Quadrant, with Deep Space 3 as a regular rendezvous, keeping the Breen at bay.

The Lexington's assignment in 2381, after the Dominion War, was a deep space exploration mission of uncharted space between Deep Space 9 and Deep Space 3. The ship surveyed the space beyond the established border of the Alpha Quadrant after transporting supplies to the colony of Native Americans on Dorvan V.

Stardate: 58776.2 (October 11, 2381)
The USS Lexington, begins its first assignment of humanitarian aid to Dorvan V before heading to unexplored space in the Alpha Quadrant.

Charted Course of USS Lexington into Unexplored Space
The Lexington dropped off supplies, including portable matter replicators and one industrial replicator to the colony world of Dorvan V, with the end goal to help make the colony self-sufficient as part of the Cardassia Union's Reconstruction.

As representatives of Starfleet Command, the crew was to meet with the colonists and their leaders, earning the proverbial "hearts and minds" by taking 2 weeks to give Federation aid and hospitality, helping the injured, reducing radiation levels and damage, and creating new homes and infrastructures, in addition to any general relief efforts.

Cardassian space is teeming with Orions, Nausicaans, and Ferengi; they are taking advantage of the logistical chaos of these Cardassian colonies. Reports of Nausicaans enslaving colonists, Orions raiding ships, and Ferengi profiting by exploiting colonists, all are due to the desperate situation facing the Cardassians in protecting their border. The Lexington was expected to take all lawful steps necessary to safeguard the colonists through both negotiation and/or defense.
