Commissioned in 2392, it is one of the first Dakota-class vessels. The Dakota is the evolution of the [[Cheyenne class]], but upgraded to reflect nearly three decades of technological development. Weapons, defensive systems, engines and sensor suites have all been upgraded to serve effectively in a variety of roles. The Dakota class is designed to provide Starfleet with a multi-mission capable platform. Described as the workhorse of the modern fleet, it is capable of carrying out diplomatic and exploration missions. with a minimum of support. While not as powerful as a combat vessel such as the [[Sovereign class|Sovereign]] or [[Achilles class|Achilles]] classes, it is capable of providing effective support in the defense of Federation interests, and is capable of defending itself from potential threats that can sometimes come from exploring the unknown. | Commissioned in 2392, it is one of the first Dakota-class vessels.

On stardate 239602.05 the Dakota Class ship was engulfed by an unknown nebula, causing inertial dampers to fail. The damage to the ship was severe: several hull breaches across the ship, one of the four nacelles had exploded, ship's systems were failing and malfunctioning. Most of the original crew were killed and others critically injured. | |||
Survivors, including a part of the [[USS Gorkon]]'s crew are faced with the difficult task to defeat a warp core breach, defend themselves against aggressive crab-like creatures, and find a way to stop spreading an infectious disease, while fighting for their own lives until help arrives. | |||
After being rescued by the [[USS Yarahla]] on stardate 239603.21, the '''USS Njörðr''' was towed to the nearest shipyard where a team of Starfleet Engineers would have to determine what was salvageable of the heavily damaged ship. | |||
