The USS Horizon, is a newly commissioned Excelsior II-class heavy cruiser, built as a modern replacement for the long-serving Excelsior-class cruiser. Designed with many well-tested technologies, the Horizon and all of its sister ships were intended to replace the Excelsior as Starfleet’s standard ship-of-the-line, handling routine duties and patrols alongside the Reliant-class light cruiser that it complements.
Operational History
Currently stationed at Earth Spacedock, the Horizon is yet to set out on her maiden voyage while the captain and her crew take on some much-needed R&R and transfer personnel after their recent mission in the Delta Quadrant forcing the USS Atlantia to return home for a much-needed refit.
The Event Horizon
Aptly named for its location at the outermost sections on the port side of deck seven, The Event Horizon, run by an eccentric Bolian by the name of Serindra Dott, is the sole dining and event lounge on the ship excluding the captain's private dining lounge and serves as the primary location for large social gatherings, formal events and dining.
Two sets of doors, one set each on the starboard bow and stern side, are the only ways into or out of the establishment. Situated on the opposite side of the room from the six large port-facing windows sits the bar capable of accommodating an average capacity of 125 persons, with a maximum capacity of 175. The bar, with its modular design, can easily be stowed away to allow for live musical entertainment or theatrical performances in addition to providing increased room in emergency situations such as evacuations or large-scale medical incidents, thanks to its independent environmental control system.
Whilst configured for normal operation, and thanks to its equipped holographic emitters, a waterfall fountain serves as the centrepiece and easily configurable flora decorate the outer perimeter based on the event taking place.
Serindra prides herself in promoting The Event Horizon's round-the-clock accessibility thanks to her dedicated staff.
