Changes: SS Hokule'a

Revision as of 19:42, 26 July 2014

The SS Hokule'a was a Terran DY-500-C (sub)class starship that was in service in the early 22nd century.

In 2102, Captain Melinda Snodgrass was the commanding officer of this ship. In that year, the Hokule'a was launched from Earth on a mission of deep space exploration in the region of space between the sectors 184/02 and 185/38. (TNG: "Up The Long Ladder", okudagram)

The name of this ship type was mentioned in a list of ships that were launched from Earth, with destinations in or near to the Ficus sector, between the years 2123 and 2190. This list was displayed on Jean-Luc Picard's desk monitor in his ready room aboard the USS Enterprise-D. A legible version of the okudagram first appeared in the reference book, Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Continuing Mission. The list became legible to viewers with the remastered episode.

Hokule'a (Star of Joy) was the Polynesian name for the star Arcturus. This was the zenith star of the Hawaiian Islands.

In the Star Trek Encyclopedia, the USS Tripoli was a member of the conjectural Hokule'a-class starship.

-== Background ==
-The name of this ship appeared on an [[okudagram]] that appeared on Picard's desk monitor, and was not verbally referenced on screen. A legible version of the okudagram appeared in the reference book ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Continuing Mission]]''.
-''Hokule'a'' means "star of gladness" in the Hawaiian language. The [[Federation]]'s ''Hokule'a''-class [[starship]] class, devised by the ''[[Star Trek Encyclopedia]]'' carried the ''Hokule'a'' name, as well, into the [[24th century]]. The {{USS|Tripoli}} is stated by the ''Encylopedia'' to be a member of this class.
