The USS Darwin was part of the original task force sent into the Ithassa Region to establish the Starfleet Presence. Primarily a transport, equipment and supply vessel.

It was scheduled to rendezvous with the USS Independence and conduct a survey mission of the Igloo Cluster when it ran across and was attached by the Grendellai. All hands were lost. It was set up to use as bait to lure other Federation vessles into the vicinity, on the premise the starship would be attacked by two Grendallia vessels.

When the Independence arrived, it marked the first engage between Starfleet and the Grendallia. Once the Independence crew were able to drive off the "dog-men", an away team was sent to ascertain what happened. On board the Darwin, the team found an unknown Romulan device along with a strange mix of both Federation and Romulan crew. On further investigation, it was determined the ship itself was a hybrid of Romulan and Starfleet technology along with a device no one was able to ascertain its purpose, attached to the warp core in Engineering.

On the run, the remaining Romulans began setting off a series of explosives aboard the Darwin until it could no longer sustain itself. A warp core breech prompted the USS Independence to beam off the crew and vacate the area when the Darwin exploded.
