The '''Invicta Expedition''' | The '''Invicta Expedition''' was a deep space expedition that ran from 2392 to 2395, exploring and charting the vast [[Menthar Corridor]]. | ||
==History== | |||
The Invicta Expedition was one of four such deep space exploration missions launched in 2392 by the [[United Federation of Planets]], at the direction of Federation President Nan Bacco to recapture the spirit of [[Starfleet]]'s early five-year missions of the {{c|Constitution}}. | |||
While each ship of the expedition was commanded by its own CO, the commander of the expedition itself was Fleet Captain [[Aron Kells]], who maintained his office on the expedition's flagship, the {{c|Cardiff}} {{USS|Invicta}}. The ''Invicta'' was accompanied by four support vessels: the {{USS|Garuda}}, the {{USS|Mercury}}, the {{USS|Tiger|A}}, and the {{USS|Syracuse}}. The ''Invicta'' departed on its mission from [[Astrofori One]] in the Menthar Corridor, heading farther out into the frontier, away from the Federation and [[Cardassian Union]]. | |||
After three years of operation and several crew rotations, the expedition concluded in 2395. | |||
