Antares is the brightest star in the constellation Scorpius, the name meaning "Rival to Ares," literally "the anti-Ares" in Greek ("Ἀντάρης"), because of its reddish appearance similar to that of Mars from Earth.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antares</ref> The position of the star in Scorpius lends the ''Antares'' its crest: a scorpion.
 
On Earth, ''Antares'' was the name of three auxiliary cargo vessels supporting the Navy of the United States of America.<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/USS_Antares</ref> Antares was also the name of the lunar lander of Apollo 14<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_14#Spacecraft</ref>, a mission of that nation's nascent space arm, NASA, and the name for a system of expendable launch vehicles<ref>https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Antares_(rocket)</ref> in the early 21st century. Three other Federation starships and two starship classes have previously borne the name ''Antares'':

''Antares'' was one of the first ''Intrepid''-class starships ordered during the initial production run. With delays caused by the loss of ''Voyager'' and the Dominion War, she was not actually launched and commissioned until 2379.

The ''Independence'' led a key role in the Battle of Izar after the impostor's discovery, bringing reinforcements in at a critical juncture.

After over twenty years of service, ''Antares'' was laid up at Avalon Fleet Yards in 2400 for a comprehensive mid-life refit. [https://www.deviantart.com/wild-endeavour/gallery/83745120/uss-wayfarer-deck-plans Changes included expanding the medical section and adding a large recreation facility at the aft end of decks five and six.] Mainly, this refit restored all of her systems to launch-new condition and prepared her for a new chapter under the command of Captain Noah Armstrong. ''Antares'' was assigned to Arcturus Squadron and began exploratory operations in and around the Talvath Cluster in early 2401.
 
Antares was reassigned as a support vessel for Olympia Station on Stardate 2401.7.

History

The Lost Fleet

The Independence came under the command of Ramius Vornar in 2389, and was assigned to a formation under the command of Fleet Captain Jericho that eventually became Endeavour Squadron in 2401. This formation took part in the defence of the Deneb Sector against the Dominion Lost Fleet that year, participating in the liberation of the Izar system. During the campaign, it was discovered that Commander Ramius had at some point been replaced by a Changeling infiltrator. The Independence led a key role in the Battle of Izar after the impostor's discovery, bringing reinforcements in at a critical juncture. With the invasion's end, the crew of the Independence were dispersed, and the ship reassigned.
