In 2396, Sentinel was activated in the Gamma Camelopardalis system in the wake of [[Astrofori One]]'s destruction by the [[Tholians]] at the [[Battle of Astrofori One]]. It salvaged the previously destroyed {{USS|Minerva}} and {{USS|Stalwart}} and attacked the hundreds of Tholian ships that had remained in the system, further adding them to its arsenal. Sentinel also created a field of tetryon radiation that enveloped the entire system, disabling warp travel.

It salvaged the previously destroyed {{USS|Minerva}} and {{USS|Stalwart}} and attacked the hundreds of Tholian ships that had remained in the system, further adding them to its arsenal. Sentinel also created a field of tetryon radiation that enveloped the entire system, disabling warp travel and preventing large starships such as the {{c|Sovereign}} {{USS|Pioneer}} from [[Task Force 105]] from entering.


Due to its extensive experience operating in a region of tetryon radiation, the {{USS|Veritas}} was dispatched by Starfleet along with {{USS|Solaris}} to investigate the sudden disappearance of Tholian signals from the system and soon encountered Sentinel. After losing the ''Solaris'' in an early skirmish, the ''Veritas'' crew with the help of Tholian survivors were able to locate Sentinel's control facility and destroyed it by capturing ''Minerva'' in a graviton field and launching it into the planet's surface like a missile. With its control center destroyed, Sentinel's activities in the Gamma Camelopardalis system ceased.
