Changes: USS Hera

Revision as of 16:24, 13 January 2008

The USS Hera was a Federation starship that was in service during the 24th century.

In 2370, it was under the command of Captain Silva La Forge, with a crew of over 300 that consisted mainly of Vulcans. During a routine courier run operating out of Deep Space 3, the Hera mysteriously disappeared.

A massive search mounted by the USS Excelsior and the USS Noble failed to discover any trace of the ship. The ship was believed lost and a memorial service was later held for the crew on Vulcan (TNG: "Interface")

The cause of the Hera's disappearance is never revealed on-screen; however, Chakotay speculated that Federation ships which vanish under similar mysterious circumstances may be victims of the effects of chaotic space. (VOY: "The Fight")

Background

According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia, the Hera was a Template:ShipClass starship with the registry NCC-62006.

Like the Hera, the USS Intrepid and USS T'Kumbra also had predominantly Vulcan crews.

The USS Hera may have been named after the Greek goddess.
