Millions of eyes watched the skies the morning the NASA shuttle Challenger, with it's seven person crew, lifted off to begin a new era in exploration through education. It's demise 73 seconds after liftoff can only be characterized not only as a loss of life but a loss of a dream for a brighter future.

That vision for a brighter future continues 397 years to the day of that tragic loss, with the commissioning of the Akira class starship USS Challenger. Her mission will be to inspire, to teach and to learn as we honor those who've gone on before us and seek to bring possibilities to those we come after us.

The Challenger's capabilities far exceed it's battle hardened exterior, to a crew of individuals who aspire to uphold the values of Starfleet and the desire to "see what's out there". The Borg, The Dominion, The Romulans...these are entities that the crew have faced, they will rely on their rememberances to help guide them as the future unfolds before them.
