In 2391, Ren was posted to the [[USS Atlantis]], an exploratory and diplomatic vessel based at [[Deep Space 26]] in the distant [[Par'tha Expanse]]. Away from the Federation, this region of space is only partially explored. The Expanse is dense in natural anomalies, providing a challenge to any navigator.
In 2391, Ren was posted to the [[USS Atlantis]], an exploratory and diplomatic vessel based at [[Deep Space 26]] in the distant [[Par'tha Expanse]]. Away from the Federation, this region of space is only partially explored. The Expanse is dense in natural anomalies, providing a challenge to any navigator.


During Atlantis' first mission, transporting Telnoth Kylon Haerin, Grenushi ambassador from Uzoka 3, to peace talks between his people and the Krayav of Uzoka 4, Ren was instrumental in finding a way through the unnavigable Par'tha Expanse, testing his flight abilities to their limit. Atlantis was able to arrive on time for its diplomatic delivery to Uzoka 4, far across the Expanse from Deep Space 26. Along the way, Ren helped acclimate [[Rover]], a sentient cloud being from the Jenatris Cloud, to life among bipeds.

[[USS Atlantis]] was ordered to return to [[Deep Space 26]] to receive a new mission directive. On a shuttle test flight/practice run, Rennyn, Commander Marcus Dickens and Commander Rode Mitchell discovered a secret EJS base in a field of asteroids and space debris, but the EJS did not engage. Along the way, the Atlantis crew grew sick with a flu-like virus. When crew members began to die, it was discovered that a toxin was artifically bound to the virus, threatening the life of anyone with iron-based blood. Rennyn, among those affected, was one of the first to grow violently ill. He was nursed through the worst of the flu by [[Sovak]], but continued to be infected by the toxin.

When Dr. Shar'Wyn Foster developed a cure, Ren volunteered as test subject. The crew recovered in Gwen Gardener's pool party themed therapeutic holodeck program Decon Tiki, where Ren showed signs of euphoria as a result of the treatment. Later, he unfairly blamed Tarsii Asmara for his role in sabotaging the ship and crew, and Sovak's resulting life-threatening injuries from wild animals on the planet's surface where Atlantis took refuge. Rennyn piloted Atlantis from the planet's surface through a team of EJS ships, held at bay by Mitchell, Scott and Terpes in shuttles, and flew the ship safely away from danger.

As an afterparty to their promotion ceremony, the crew of Atlantis was invited to a carnival and circus holoprogram designed by Gwen Gardener, set up in an extra-large makeshift holodeck on Deck 42 of Starbase 26. The program was corrupted by an EMH who had merged with the memories of Lt. Shryker, and the crew were trapped inside the deck, changed into fairytale characters, and forced to go on a quest to save Princess Gwen Gardener. Ren became a version of the Terran fairy tale Pinocchio, known as Renocchio. Because he was mostly honest in wanting to escape the terrifying program, Ren's nose never grew all that much.

Following this mission, Ren was awarded the Good Conduct Ribbon and the Legion of Merit. He was asked to take on Operations functions on the bridge in addition to his helm and navigation duties, making him HCO Officer and Flight Officer.

Atlantis was dispatched to investigate an outdated Starfleet signal coming from the unexplored Norlian Nebula. Rennyn worked with Ensign Daro Conti to install the new PANIC Room, the Par'tha Expanse Navigation Control center. This area of Atlantis provides a way to incorporate advanced sensor data to enhance navigation in the unpredictable Par'tha Expanse, allowing Atlantis a greater freedom of movement within the Expanse. Conti's invention of swarming self-replicating navigation probes allowed Atlantis to find its way into the Norlian Nebula. Once inside, Atlantis discovered the USS Christopher Pike, a ship missing since 2299. Rennyn shuttled away teams to the Pike aboard Atlantis' aeroshuttle, the Tiger Shark, since transporters would not work in the nebula. Alone aboard the Tiger Shark, Rennyn found a survivor of the Pike, Lt. Barbara Tarch, sneaking aboard from Pike, looking remarkably unaged. As Atlantis negotiated with similarly time-displaced Romulans, as well as an inundation of Pike survivors and mysterious rifts in time and space, Ren kept calm and got the away teams home safe to Atlantis. He later worked to help create a chroniton shield to aid in Atlantis' escape, and used the PANIC Room and Conti's probe swarm to find safe paths for all the ships to exit the time rift into their own times. Atlantis flew to safety, and Rennyn set course for DS26 and a little R&R.

During shoreleave, Rennyn was assigned to take a diplomacy course with [[T'mani]], Federation ambassador to the Par'tha Expanse, as a consequence of his loss of temper when Tarsii Asmara was suspected of foul play. Ren lost the padd containing his assigned coursework, but, following a madcap chase full of red herrings, Ren, assisted by Daro Conti, found the padd and completed his assignment.

The Atlantis was next asked by Starfleet Command to leave the Par'tha Expanse for the first time since its relaunch. The ship reported to the Outpost Bravo in the Piktar System, an arm of Prometheus Station. Following reported incidents related to the [[Prometheus Incident]], Outpost Bravo's communications went silent. When Atlantis arrived to investigate, they discovered the ice planet Piktar I was crumbling, taking the Outpost with it. Rennyn's team discovered a secret underground lab facility, where a genetically modified Terran codenamed Elsa was discovered to be unable to control her power over cold and ice. The team was rescued from the collapsing planet by USS Atlantis, but not before Rennyn got the Tiger Shark stuck below ground, and suffered his third concussion in several weeks in the collapsing facility.

Arriving back on Atlantis, with Elsa in cryostasis, Ren discovered that Rover had solidified into a hard, porous purple rock. The Cloud Dancer was seemingly dead. Ren theorized that their distance from the Jenatris Cloud had lead to Rover's death, but another theory stated that the young cloud was in a natural chrysalis phase.

{{Citation|Pilot's Sextant|239201.01|USS Atlantis|An award both named and shaped after an old Earth navigational tool, the Pilot's Sextant is given to those Helm officers who have proven themselves to be the best of the best. From finding a safe route home to flying an emergency atmospheric landing, pilots who have earned the right to this award know the importance of staying focused, and puts their ability to make spectacular maneuvers at the service of their ship and its mission.}}
{{Citation|Pilot's Sextant|239201.01|USS Atlantis|Lt. Rendal Rennyn has been an asset to the group ever since he joined, bringing up not only his own character development but also staff task. It didn't take long for him to find ways to explore the duty he's performing as HCO of the Atlantis. There we've seen him in many aspects, from just driving the ship to running a runabout, as well as performing his task even when under the weather. More than that, he has shown us skills and made us "see" what the ship was doing with his descriptions of his work as Helm officer. He even pointed out things that we usually take for granted, such as how comfortable and dynamic the chair of the Helm officer on an Intrepid can be! He shows great knowledge and has provided fun and intense moments for us to enjoy while maintaining the dynamics of a starship. His description of navigation through uncharted regions of space is breathtaking, while maintaining a certain degree of technical validity and coherence. It is the perfect combination of logical technological explanation and elegant prose, and for this he deserves the Pilot's Sextant. Congratulations, Lt Rendal Rennyn!}}
