USS Blythe (NCC-12114) is a California-class utility cruiser assigned to Fourth Fleet. The Blythe was equipped as a science support variant of her class, with science-teal markings on the hull and significant interior space devoted to science labs and probe storage.
First Commission
The Blythe's crew included a sizeable science department, half of whom were civilian scientists from the Romulan Free State. As part of the diplomatic efforts of Task Force 17, the joint crew was engaged on a long-term mission to explore lasting peace between the Federation and the Free State by working together in the pursuit of knowledge.
Relishing in exploratory research of the social sciences, the Blythe's crew of archaeologists and anthropologists often took the slow road, following in the footsteps of explorers and cruisers discovering new civilizations.
Second Commission
After the events of the 250th Frontier Day in 2401 the USS Blythe was brought into active service again. This time the Blythe dawned red colours and served as a support vessel for the deep space operations of Task Force 17.
