USS Discovery-A: Difference between revisions

The primary support vessel of the StarBase 118 Ops crew is the [http://memory-alpha.org/en/wiki/Akira_class Akira]-class USS Discovery-A. Like her predecessor, the Discovery-A is the protector of StarBase 118 and is a multi-role craft. She can engage in combat and fight just as well as any starship; take her crew to foreign worlds for scientific research; act as a mercy vessel for a doomed planet; or carry diplomatic envoys to their destination.

After several grueling missions in which she was never fully repaired due to time constraints, the Discovery met her end in 2382 when she succumbed to terrorist attacks of an unknown origin. Dozens of devices with their own cloaking shields were planted throughout the ship and caused massive power spikes in the grid. The saboteur eventually made his/her way to Engineering and critically damaged the warp core. After a massive evacuation which resulted in no loss of life, the Discovery exploded as her warp core went critical.
