The ''Garuda'' is currently assigned to the [[Menthar Corridor]], a region of space between the [[Cardassian|Cardassian Union]], [[Breen|Breen Confederacy]] and [[Tholian|Tholian Assembly]], via a special arrangement with the Cardassian Union's ruling Detapa Council. Her primary mission is that foundational goal of the Federation -- to seek out new worlds and new civilizations -- and to explore the furthest reaches of the Alpha Quadrant. As a ''Galaxy'' class starship, the ''Garuda'' is a deep space science and exploration vessel, designed to run missions for long periods of time without support; it is a single-ship exploratory taskforce. | ||

What new and diverse wonders does the Menthar Corridor hold? Will relations with the Cardassians continue to improve? Will the presence of the ''Garuda'' lead to better relationships with the reclusive Tholians and the aggressive Breen? What of the new species and new civilizations the ''Garuda'' might discover, including the [[Kubarey]], the [[Myr Luuk]], and the [[Community]]? And what, perhaps most importantly, of the ancient Menthar and the Alliance of extinct races associated with the region, the races who once built wonders and carved out great empires in the stars? The ''Garuda'' and her crew are certain to find out -- as they explore beyond the reaches of known space. | What new and diverse wonders does the Menthar Corridor hold?

Most recently, the Garuda has undergone a change of hands as Captain Cassandra Egan Manno was promoted to Fleet Captain. Captain Aron Kells once more took a command post and is now in charge of a ship, on which about half the crew served under his other self. The construction of the new space station, [[Astrofori One]] adds to the plethora of changes as the ship and crew now call this new station their home base. | |||
