The USS Majestic is a Sovereign Class explorer, currently serving as the flagship of the Fourth Fleet's Task Force 86 under the command of Captain Erill'Yun Mek. Permanently based at Starbase 86, the Majestic is tasked with carrying out border security operations in and around the volatile region of space known as The Triangle. As Task Force flagship, the Majestic is also frequently deployed on diplomatic and ceremonial missions. For this reason, the ship's reputation precedes it within Klingon Empire, Romulan Free State, Romulan Star Empire and Romulan Republic space.
Design and Construction
A seventeen year old spaceframe, construction of the Majestic was completed more recently than many other ships of her class. Her keel was laid during the closing stages of the Dominion War, representing the beginning stages of Starfleet's efforts to regroup and rebuild. At this point, the Sovereign Class had already been in service for six years. As a result, many initial design problems with the class had been identified and successfully ironed out. Improvements to tactical systems were key, along with upgraded scientific research facilities and peace-time enhancements to an already comfortable crew living situation. The latter caught the notice of then Fleet Captain Ciffao Tharc. An upwardly mobile officer, tipped for a flag rank, Tharc was able to oversee the final stages of the Majestic's construction before positioning herself to take command. The ship's dedication ceremony took place in the April of 2382 at the Devron Fleet Yards, causing many to remark that she is truly "native" to the region of space in which she operates.
