U.S.S. Mundy (FASA)
The Federation Starship Mundy was an Aakenn class freighter. On Reference Stardate 2/1309 (September 2213), the Mundy was found adrift near Starbase 21. The vessel's onboard life support systems were operating, but there were no crewmembers aboard. The bridge showed signs of a struggle, but nearly all computer files had been lost and there was no recorded data to reveal what had happened. The last entry from the captain's log, from about four months earlier, made no mention of any emergency or possible danger. When the cargo hold was breached, it was found to hold millions of live tribbles, living on the food produced by a synthesizer that had somehow been left on.[1]
The "Tribble ship," as it came to be called, was towed to Starbase 21. There, investigators learned that the ship was stolen two years earlier. The mystery remained unsolved until RSD 2/2205 (May 2222), when two of its crewmembers were found in a nearby asteroid cluster, where they somehow were missed when search parties checked the area for survivors. They revealed that the ship was boarded by a band of renegade Klingons who, when they discovered that the cargo was tribbles, became so enraged that they killed the captain and senior officers, and stranded the crew on the asteroid.[1]
