U.S.S. Brahe NCC-3821 (Myriad)
Construction on the Federation Starship Brahe, a Kepler class[1] transport (a variant of the Ptolemy class), was authorized by the Star Fleet Appropriation of Stardate 3840[2] and commissioned circa 2189.[3]
Commanded by Captain Peter Sullivan,[4] on Reference Stardate 1/9301 (January 2193),[5] the U.S.S. Ajax NCC-547[2] suffered a catastrophic matter/antimatter explosion, which vaporized the ship. What debris remained took the form of an artificial comet, which was discovered by the Brahe. "If you ask me," Captain Sullivan reported, "it had something to do with that new dilithium converter assembly. That's such a critical component in new starship design, and one that should have been tested more, that, well, I'm afraid we haven't seen the end of trouble from this 'miracle' crystal. ... I don't believe there's ever been an artificial comet produced before; I'm only sorry it was such a tragedy that caused this one. In memory of the lost Ajax and its crew, I recommend that this new mini-comet be named after the ship."[4]
