| Third in the lineage of vessels to bear the name, the '''USS ''Hathaway'' NCC-92904''' ([[Sagan Class|''Sagan''-class]]) is a highly versatile, state-of-the-art exploration vessel widely considered to be one of the most advanced starships in the service of the Federation. The immediate successor to the [[Nebula Class|''Nebula''-class]] USS ''Hathaway'' lost during exploration operations in the Gamma Quadrant, the current iteration is fresh out of the shipyards at [[Starbase Bravo]] and is currently assigned to [[Task Force 17]] under the command of [[bfms_char:49898|Captain Vasoch Gor]].
| |
|
| |
|
| Looking to make a name for themselves in the annals of history, the crew are a mixture of fresh-faced youngsters excelling in their fields of study, and wily veterans looking for an opportunity to cement their legacies. With the ship currently operating out of [[Deep Space 17]] in the [[Typhon Frontier]], she is tasked with exploring an area of space ripe for scientific exploration and missions of a first-contact nature.
| | '''Atlantis Squadron''' is a 2-ship formation based in the [[Thomar Expanse]] beyond [[Deep Space 47]]. The squadron's primary duties are deep space exploration along the trailing edges of the [[Cardassian Union]] and providing support to the Cardassian Union in the face of [[Breen Confederacy]] aggression. With both starships being explorers and therefore capable of a wide variety of missions, the squadron is an adaptable formation well suited for the wide range of situations such long-range explorers encounter. |
|
| |
|
| =Into the Expanse=
| | The squadron is commanded from USS ''Atlantis'' by Captain Theodoras, spearheading exploration and diplomatic missions. Atlantis Squadron is assigned to [[Task Force 47]], with a remit for exploration and first contact missions. |
| ==2401 - Into the Expanse==
| |
| With her construction and subsequent shakedown cruise complete, a skeleton crew transferred ''Hathaway'' from [[Starbase Bravo]] to [[Deep Space 17]], where a new commanding officer was appointed by [[bfms_char:45331|CAPT Romaes Anjin]], TFXO for TF17. After a hiatus which saw him take leave on multiple worlds, a chance encounter saw the Tellarite, [[bfms_char:49898|Vasoch Gor]], re-evaluate his choice to leave Starfleet. Negotiations with Romaes saw the man rewarded for his years of dedication and experience with his first permanent command aboard ''Hathaway''.
| |
|
| |
|
| However, a number of weeks into this new assignment, a mysterious figure arrived aboard ''Hathaway'', citing information regarding a conspiracy within Starfleet's highest offices.

|
| ==Commanding Officer Lineage== | | ==Composition== |
| In the time since her construction, and prior to the assignment of Captain Gor, ''Proxima'' has been privileged to have three commanding officers overseeing her tours of duty, and one Captain of Engineering overseeing her construction.
| | ===USS ''Atlantis''=== |
| | [[File:Sovereign1.png|thumb|right]][[USS Atlantis|USS ''Atlantis'']] is a [[Sovereign Class|''Sovereign''-class explorer]] and the flagship of the squadron under the direct command of [[bfms_char:26791|Captain Tikva Theodoras]]. A considerable vessel on its own, ''Atlantis'' is the heavyweight of the squadron in terms of tactical and engineering capacity, with her scientific versatility lagging behind her younger sister ''Republic''. ''Atlantis'' is charged with leading the way in deep-space exploration along the trailing edge of the Thomar Expanse, securing diplomatic ties with new powers discovered and working to assist in maintaining or settling the Cardassian/Breen cold war that is brewing over the Expanse and its treasures. |

| | [[File:Republic.png|thumb|right]][[USS Republic|USS ''Republic'']] is a [[Constitution III Class|''Constitution III''-class explorer]]. A powerful exploratory platform, harkening to the days of Starfleet's golden era of exploration discovery, what ''Atlantis'' lacks in scientific versatility ''Republic'' more than makes up for and then some. Her primary purpose is concurrent exploration work alongside ''Atlantis'' and has a similar mission statement to the larger vessel. When operating together she acts as ''Atlantis''' escort vessel and with her higher top speed is capable of interception and scouting duties as well. |

| |
| With 24 decks, the ship has hundreds of rooms and locations that serve a variety of purposes for the crew. Some of the more notable locations include:
| |
| | |
| ==Bridge==
| |
| [[File:AtlantisBridge1.jpg|left|thumb|Main Bridge; command center for the USS ''Hathaway'']] | |
| A reflection of the time period she was created, the [[Sagan Class|Sagan-class]] polished steel and cool metal fixtures of the bridge aesthetics bring back memories of years gone by, her design blending modern technological advancements with the nostalgia of eras long gone. It is a functional, yet aesthetically pleasing facility designed in a similar vein to the rest of the ship. Her greatest feature is a wide-angled window which fills the forward bulkhead. This window has holographic projectors built into the rim, giving it the ability to function as a more traditional viewscreen. It can also be used as an emergency evacuation hatch, with forcefields being lowered until replaced by a large, external bulkhead.
| |
| | |
| Dominating the heart of the command center, three command chairs made of red leather sit atop the central platform, surrounded by rails and steps to the lower levels of the bridge. As is tradition, the center seat and its controls are reserved for the commanding officer, or any directly appointed officer in command during her absence. To her right, the executive officer and, to her left, a third seat is generally reserved for the use of the ship's Counsellor, Chief Medical Officer or any official or dignitary the Captain sees fit. All three of the chairs have built-in controls on the armrests, enabling the occupying officers to conduct their duties with unprecedented access to a wide variety of ship systems.
| |
| | |
| At the foot of the stairs directly ahead (or to the side) of the command platform, two angled consoles serve as duty stations for operations (port) and flight operations (starboard). A few feet from each, two stand-alone consoles provide auxiliary station access for any purpose required (such as communications, environmental control, mission operations etc). On the port side bulkhead, three large stations dedicated to tactical operations provide access to the ship's defensive and offensive systems, whilst the starboard bulkhead is dedicated to the various science departments on the ship.
| |
| | |
| Aft of the bridge, there are two additional consoles behind the command platform designated for medical use (port) and engineering (starboard), allowing the engineer on duty access to the same engineering systems as in main engineering itself, including access to environmental controls, propulsion systems and the warp core. Central to the aft bulkhead, open access is granted to the observation lounge, which is sealable by emergency bulkheads and forcefields.
| |
| [[File:AtlantisBridge1.jpg|right|thumb|Observation Lounge; a meeting place and workspace.]]
| |
| ==Observation Lounge==
| |
| A beautifully designed room, the observation lounge matches the aesthetic of the rest of the ship, with polished alloys and cool metals as the material of choice during construction. The room is dominated by a large table with holographic controls which is particularly useful for briefings and has seating for up to 10 officers. The Captain traditionally sits closest to the wall-mounted display on the starboard bulkhead. There are several shelves with ornaments and models of previous ships called ''Hathaway'', as well as the original [[Constellation Class|Constellation-class] ship plaque. An additional door provides access from the port bulkhead.
| |
| | |
| The observation lounge operates an open-door policy and, in the absence of a more traditional ready room attached to the bridge, the Captain often uses the observation lounge as a workspace so that they do not have to return to their quarters.
| |
| | |
| ==Strategic Operations Suite - StratOps==
| |
| [[File:AtlantisBridge3.jpg|right|thumb|Strategic Operations suite, or StratOps]]
| |
| Most notably, and an exciting feature for inclusion, the bridge has been set back a short distance to allow for an additional facility. Separated from the rest of the bridge by two steps and a railing, the new Strategic Operations suite (known colloquially as StratOps) allows the crew to deal with any scenario that may arise in their mission, without the need to access more specialised facilities around the ship unless absolutely necessary or appropriate. Missions are routinely monitored here, and additional personnel from across the ship may be assigned on a needs basis, such as additional medical or science personnel when evacuating a colony or dealing with an anomaly; security may be beefed up from here in the event of a tactical scenario such as an intruder alert or boarding action; intelligence, strategic operations and command analysts are likely to use the space to provide relevant departments with up to date information in ever-changing scenarios. On the back wall, the obligatory Master Systems Display (MSD) is present, but this is a fully customisable display, capable of hundreds of functions, including operating as a reduced viewscreen for mission operations. Most significantly, the space allows for the crew to react to an evolving situation without the need to retreat to the observation lounge.

| *''Main Article: [[User:Kai1701E/Proxima/Auxiliary_Craft|Auxiliary craft deployment aboard ''Proxima'' ]]
| |
| | |
| As a Sagan-class starship with four shuttlebays of varying size, ''Hathaway'' is capable of housing a large contingent of auxiliary craft. The deployment and organisation of such craft has always been at the discretion of the commanding officer, and as such, Captain Gor has used ''Hathaway's'' mission profile to reduce the number of personnel shuttles and runabouts to make room for a squadron of [[Starfighters#Valkyrie-class_fighter|Valkyrie-class Starfighters]] in the lower shuttlebays. Codenamed the ''Hellhounds'', this small squadron is capable of conducting a range of operations in support of ''Hathaway's'' main mission objectives.
