The USS Antarctic is a Galaxy-class Federation starship that in operation during the latter half of the 24th Century. It has served as the command of Captain Alan MonRoe for most of its service life, and is of one of the earliest batches of Galaxy class starships to be built.

History

Construction and Launch

The Antarctic had its keel laid at Utopia Planetia Fleet Yards in orbit of Mars in 2361. Construction was supervised by Commander Thy'lin Ketral, a senior engineering officer who worked with the Starfleet Corps of Engineers at Utopia Planetia for over fifteen years before retirement two yers after the completion of the Antarctic, upon which he also served as chief engineer. Many of the methods used in its construction were refined methods that had been tested on construction of the Enterprise-D and USS Galaxy, with the various issues encountered with those earlier vessels' construction already known.

In 2364, the neural parasites which had infected Starfleet Command gave orders through Admiral Quinn for the production on the Antarctic to be rapidly increased, and to be placed under the command of Commander Garel, who was to be promoted to captain. These orders were overturned after the parasite infiltration was halted by Captain Picard of the Enterprise, and construction continued on the original schedule.

The Antarctic was commissioned under the command of Captain Saros in 2365.

Service

In 2371, Lieutenant Commander Benjamin J. Byrne was recruited to the crew as its first officer by Captain MonRoe, joining the crew after a period of time stationed at Starfleet Headquarters, Earth. The Commander left the ship's crew in 2373 to take command of the USS Hendrix after the declaration of war with the Dominion.

The Antarctic was known to have served Starfleet for the full span of the Dominion War, and emerged from the end intact, unlike many other ships during the war. Lieutenant Commander Byrne returned to the ship as its first officer after the war's conclusion until he was once again given a command of his own in 2378. Captain MonRoe considers him a close friend.
