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. | 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. | 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.

In May of 2399, the USS Thor [[Ragnarok (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. After crashing to the planet's oceans, the Thor was mostly flooded, with major damage to her hull and the loss of both nacelle. Through significant effort and sacrifice of her crew, as well as the assistance of another Federation starship, the Thor was saved from sinking, returned to space, and towed back to Federation dockyards for total repair and refit. | |||
