Bravo Fleet
USS Polaris (NCC-80001)
While research and development activities typically occur on starbases and outposts within Federation territory, sometimes the greatest discoveries are made amongst the stars. This is the mission of the Polaris Squadron.
USS Polaris
Odyssey-class • NCC-80001 • Fourth Fleet
The USS Polaris is an Odyssey-class heavy explorer that serves as the flagship of Polaris Squadron and home of the Advanced Science, Technology and Research Activity. The Polaris is equipped with cutting edge laboratories, sensor suites, and analysis cores that give it near-parity with top-of-the-line R&D facilities, while having a degree of mobility such facilities do not have. It is also well appointed for frontier diplomatic duties, but it has some tactical drawbacks due to its size and purpose that are augmented by Polaris Squadron’s other vessels.
The stories of Polaris Squadron are rated 2-2-2 for mature subject matter, including violence, language and sexual content.
Polaris Advanced Research Squadron
Polaris Squadron is a mission unit under the command of Fleet Admiral Allison Reyes, Director of the Advanced Science, Technology and Research Activity, and Rear Admiral Alex Grayson, Commander of Archanis Sector Operations, that operates under the dual mandate:
- Through the Advanced Science, Technology and Research Activity (ASTRA),
fuel Starfleet’s innovation engine through discovery, investigations and interactions on the frontier. - Under the Archanis Sector Operations Command,
revitalize the Archanis Sector through infrastructure investments and regional diplomacy.
The flagship of Polaris Squadron is the USS Polaris, an Odyssey-class heavy explorer that hosts the Advanced Science, Technology and Research Activity, and the headquarters of Polaris Squadron is Archanis Station, a Canopus-class starbase from whence sector operations of the Archanis Sector are managed.

USS Polaris
Spring 2385… Smoke filled the bridge as superheated plasmas met chilled atmosphere, and sparks flew as a console exploded somewhere behind. A crewman cried out in pain, but the lieutenant in the center chair didn’t turn. The enemy was dead ahead, and that was all that mattered. “Starboard [...]

Montana Station, USS Ingenuity, USS Polaris and USS Serenity
It’d been two weeks since they stole away from the Polaris in the dead of night, and two days since anyone said a word. For the three tucked aboard the runabout Calvera, the silence was comfortable. It was normal. It was the thing that filled the moments in-between, whether racing the vastness of [...]

Wispy clouds whirled and blue seas sparkled, lit by the cool blue gleam of the young Herbig Ae/Be star flickering 6.7 AU away. By the wall clock, it was the dead of the night, but space was a curious thing. It was always bright, if you had the right frame of reference. Standing center on the wide [...]
