The USS Thor is a Vesta Class, currently under the command of [[Toni Turner|Rear Admiral Toni Turner]], categorized as a multi-mission explorer. The ship was built in 2385, and is part of a recent initiative of Starfleet's to refocus on exploration and fleet-wide modernization.

ENGINEERING
Main engineering is a three-level complex that spans decks 11-13 across the length and width
of the ship. Within this area, the main warp core is centralized. The  slipstream core is also
housed here, below and aft of the main core, with restricted access on deck 13. Though
comprised of three separate decks, the central part of engineering is more of an open bay
area with catwalks allowing access to the other decks.
Enclosed rooms on the edges of engineering serve as the Chief Engineer’s office, offices for
engineering personnel as needed, and meeting rooms for teams working on specific projects.
Engineering labs and holosuites are located on the outskirts as well. Two wholly enclosed and
reinforced test bays near the forward part of the compartment serve as safe rooms for the
testing of experimental or unknown tech as needed.

TACTICAL
The Thor has an innovative new Tactical headquarters onboard, built around a three-
dimensional tactical planning system called the "War Room." This system acts as a counterpart
to the Stellar Cartography dome introduced on the USS Enterprise-D and carried through to
other ships built recently. Instead of focusing purely on cartographic display, the War Room is
a training and planning facility that provides the tactical department with simulations and
projections regarding tactical encounters. While things generally move too fast in actual
tactical encounters to utilize the room for planning, it is equipped with the ability to provide
live data projection and A.I.-assisted strategic outcome planning.
Adjacent to the War Room are the office of the Chief Tactical Officer, a two-corridor phaser
range, the ship's secondary armory, and a small briefing room for tactical officers.
SECURITY
The Chief of Security's office, the brig, and the main armory are located on Deck 3. This ship's
configuration forces all brig access through the security office with multiple levels of
protection to keep those in holding contained. Three cells have space for double occupancy. In
addition, one auxiliary cargo bay on Deck 22 can be re-configured as an emergency brig.
The hazard team and Marines deployed under the command of the Chief of Security also have
muster areas located within the security area.
The main armory is located adjacent to the security area, and has Marine guards posted at all
times. Access is restricted to senior staff. All weapons are located in secured lockers and while
a maintenance bay provides space and tools for repairing disabled weapons. Heavy ordnance
is stored here.
The Thor carries enough weaponry for all members of the crew in case of a hostile boarding
situation, although some weapons are located in the auxiliary armory and in smaller lockers
around the ship.
The auxiliary armory is located on Deck 1, adjacent to the bridge, and is also guarded by
Marines.
SCIENTIFIC CAPABILITIES
The Thor has a standard complement of science labs. Two labs located at the hull are
configured for high-level containment, and have special access to the outer hull via doors that
double as both loading and emergency blast-release.
Shuttlebay 2 also has placement that facilitates loading of materials in and out of the ship to
the science labs, and that deck has been configured with compartmentalization and facilitates
de-pressurized movement of materials.
The astrometrics and astrophyics dome are also located on Deck 10. This location is
configured for microgravity, allowing crew to work in multiple dimensions without the
confines of gravity-defined spatial orientation.

    MEDICAL CAPABILITIES
    The Thor has a larger-than-normal sickbay in anticipation of its role as a front-line ship and a
    diplomatic envoy in places where Federation medical assistance is rarely provided.
    The main treatment ward has 15 biobeds, an ICU unit with 3 biobeds, and two surgical suites.
    A quarantine unit provides safe containment for individuals with highly contagious illnesses.
    The Chief Medical Officer's office is located in sickbay, while the ship's counselor's offices are
    located outside sickbay, but adjacent.
    A state-of-the-art EMH program enables even more capacity, and is able to access most areas
    of the ship via holoemitters.
    MARINE CAPABILITIES
    Two teams of Marines are stationed aboard the Thor, working closely with the Security team,
    as well as the Engineering department in a Hazmat/Rapid Response capacity.
    The main office for the Marines, including their Mess Hall and other muster areas, are located
    on Deck 19. They maintain a separate armory for their weapons in this area, as well.

Introduction

Thor is the mighty, hammer-wielding god of the ancient Norse mythology of Earth. He is associated with thunder, lightning, storms, oak trees, and strength. Thor was upright in character but fearsome to his enemies. He protected mankind with a magic hammer, Mjölnir, which always struck its target and returned to Thor's hand. Like the ancient deity for which it is named, the USS Thor is tasked with protecting the Federation and its allies. Her Starfleet crew are the model of strong character and the mighty ship inspires fear in her enemies.

The USS Thor, a Vesta class multi-mission explorer, was officially launched on stardate 239406.23 under the command of Rear Admiral Toni Turner on a mission of scientific exploration and defense of Federation worlds and allies in and around the Duronis Sector and Typhon Expanse.

In 2397, with Starfleet's mission on Duronis II complete and the Laudeans of that world set to become Federation members, the Thor was reassigned away from the Duronis Sector under the command of Fleet Captain Aron Kells.

History

The USS Thor was commissioned in 2385 and was part of an initiative to refocus on exploration and fleet-wide modernization. The Thor was designed to be a testbed of new designs, technologies, and ideas of ship layouts. Because of constant redesigns and changing mission profiles the Thor took nearly ten years to go from assembly-line to the first official crew.

A series of recent events have caught the attention of Starfleet Command that resulted in the order to finalize the Thor and make her space worthy. These events include the War of Shadows, hostilities with the Romulan Empire and Zalkonian Suzerainty, the near destruction of the USS Thunder-A, and technological advancements that have made exploration of the Typhon Expanse possible. The USS Thor was officially commissioned under the command of Rear Admiral Toni Turner in hopes of further exploring the Typhon Expanse. While turning an eye to exploration, Starfleet also recognizes that the threats against Federation worlds are myriad. The defensive and combat capabilities of the ship have therefore been refitted with cutting-edge technologies that ensure it is able to defend itself, the people of the United Federation of Planets, and its allies.

In May of 2399, the USS Thor investigated lost contact with a Federation research outpost in the Gamma Quadrant. While in orbit of a planet the ship was hit in the antimatter feed port by an unknown plasma based weapon and was nearly destroyed.
