2306.Q1
The spotlights illuminate the proud "USS
Miracht", black lettering in sharp relief on the pearly white hull. The shuttles with the crew are steadily arriving, their shapes flitting in and out of view beyond the bony ribbing of the San Francisco Fleet Yards drydock. Nearly half a kilometer in length, over two millions tons of mass, the Excelsior-class is one of the mightiest vessels in the known galaxy. In the hands of the right crew, she had no equal.
Federation Councillors from Tellar Prime and every Tellarite colony were on hand to witness the relaunch of the ship that bore the name of the homeworld. For once they seem hardly argumentative at all. Instead the delight at knowing that the Explorer Corps will be carrying this name to distant stars in friendship has them feeling overwhelmed.
Between you and Vice Admiral Sousa the ceremony is conducted with ponderous care, preserving the gravitas of the moment and letting the Tellarites soak it all in. But soon the time comes and the ship pulls away from the drydock, ready to take on the stars.
