 '''2390s'''
-After the conclusion of her refit in early 2394, the Astraeus was assigned to Commander Victor Yeager for her shakedown cruise.  Thus far, the cruise has proved problematic, with the ship having to put back into spacedock often in order to repair problems and rewire systems.  But the work is gradually being completed, and Starfleet hopes to have the ship ready for deployment by the beginning of 2395.
+After the conclusion of her refit in early 2394, the Astraeus was assigned to Commander Victor Yeager for her shakedown cruise.  Aside from the usual minor to moderate severity bugs that need to be worked out during a refit, things were proceeding normally - until Commander Yeager decided to attempt to show off the capabilities of his new ship by attempting to break the mass limit of [[The Shoals]].  This attempt was a failure, and the Astraeus ended up stranded and unable to form a warp field.  The [[USS Veritas]] came to her rescue, stopping pirates from taking her over.  This came at the cost of several Starfleet lives, and severe damage to the Astraeus.  In the aftermath, Commander Yeager was court-martialed and stripped of his rank, and the Astraeus put back into spacedock around Cait for repairs, and to have a skin of ablative armor installed at the insistence of Commander [[Mei'konda]].
+Around stardate 239606, Admiral [[Joseph Washington]] gave command to now-Captain Mei'konda Delano.
