Luna-class • NCC-80109 • Task Force 17

The USS Callisto is a Luna Class starship, known for its advanced exploratory capabilities, assigned to Taskforce 17. The sleek, state-of-the-art vessel is equipped with a sophisticated sensor array and enhanced warp drive, designed for deep-space exploration and scientific research. Its primary mission is to investigate and study burgeoning telepathic lifeforms and phenomena, a niche field in the frontier of space exploration.

The ship’s crew is a mix of fresh talent and seasoned officers, all handpicked for their unique skills and specialties. The crew is diverse, bringing together experts in telepathic sciences, exobiology, and psychology, alongside engineers and tactical officers who ensure the ship’s readiness for any unforeseen challenges.

The Callisto’s mission is not without its dangers. The telepathic phenomena it studies can be volatile, and the lifeforms it encounters are often unpredictable, ranging from fledgling species just beginning to develop telepathic abilities to ancient, powerful entities. The crew must navigate these encounters with a combination of scientific curiosity, caution, and diplomacy.

The ship’s missions often require long periods away from established Federation outposts, making the crew highly self-sufficient and adaptable to the challenges of deep-space exploration.
