Beginnings of 2020 - Star Trek: Stepping Into Something New

 Star Trek: Stepping into Something New

12 August 2420

Starbase 604 filled the screen as the shuttle approached.  Ensign Andrew Kelvin looked for the ship he was posted to. “There it is,” the pilot, T’Laris, said.

 

Kelvin saw it, a mid-sized ship. “USS Manitoba. Wow!”

 

“It is impressive. USS Manitoba NCC 121545. Tasmania class, 450 meters long, 12 decks. Capable of reaching the Large Magellanic Cloud within a year at its highest sustainable Slipstream speeds.”

 

That was unlikely Kelvin thought.  “But we’re going to explore a lot closer, right?”

 

“That’s right. We’re chasing up on reports of distant human settlements,” T’Laris answered.

 

 

Aboard the Manitoba, Lieutenant T’Laris entered the Bridge. It was her first exploratory mission.
