USS Eagle: Difference between revisions

The [[Intrepid Class]] starships marked a change in course for Starfleet away from building very large, elaborate starships and toward building smaller, more efficient vessels. One of a series of newer and more compact ships, the Intrepid Class was designed to be a fast multi-mission starship primarily intended for exploration, survey, and courier missions. A fast vessel with advanced sensing and research capability, the Intrepid class makes for an effective exploratory platform, while at the same time carrying sufficient armament to act as s small agile combat vessel.  Several important advances in Starfleet technology mark the development of the Intrepid class. One of the most important features of the starship is the variable geometry warp nacelles, which allow an adjustment of the warp field to maximise its efficiency, as well as to minimise any negative effects on the fabric of space. Utilising this cutting edge technology results in a vessel that can be flown at extremely high speeds with a significantly smaller power source than other ships of comparable size. Another design breakthrough in the Intrepid Class is the inclusion within a protected backup chamber of a series of components that would allow for the assembly of a spare warp core. Should the main core be lost for some unforeseen reason, a replacement could be constructed by the engineering crew without having to replicate all the components.

The Intrepid Class pioneered the systems that would allow a starship to make routine planet fall. Previously unheard of in starships, the ability to land and take off again with minimum system impact is being incorporated into a series of vessels, thanks in large part to the advance made and lessons learnt in the flight of the Intrepid class. The most advanced computer systems available are at the heart of the Intrepid Class ship. The computer uses bio neural gel-packs that incorporate synthetic neuron analogs in a nutrient gel medium. This arrangement mimics organic neurons, allowing the packs a processing protocol akin to what happens in a humanoid brain, speeding data functions and improving overall computer operations.

The Eagle has spent several months undergoing an almost total refit to bring the Eagle up to and beyond it's Intrepid Class, the extra space from redundant cargo holds was replaced by sophisticated sensor equipment and shield generators as well as torpedo storage and a larger aft shuttle bay..  

[[Taboo, Daydan|Captain Taboo]] is a dynamic unpredictable officer who has throughout his career demonstrated a flair for getting out of trouble as fast as he got into it..  When asked why he joined Starfleet he said simply, to "find his place" and "to make a difference..."  His Command and Leadership style has been questioned by many of starfleets senior officers expressing concerns of loyalty and suitability. Captain Taboo has served on many ships in the fleet, the [[Kodiak]], [[Steadfast]], [[USS Independence|Independence]], [[Resolution]] and at the [[Embassy of Duronis II|Embassy on Duronis II]] and finally the [[USS Constitution-B]].  As a Science Officer, working his way up though the ranks the hard way he was shocked to be offered the chance to be the First Officer at the Embassy on Duronis II, from that point on he knew his goal was to some day command his own ship.  With a background in Intelligence gathering his skills have made him a valuable member of the fleet taking advantage of his expert reading skills in in both Empathy and Telepathy. Taboo's loyalty to his Ship, Crew, Betazed and the Nature of the Universe is unquestionable..  Perhaps together, the Eagle and Captain Taboo can at last make a difference.
