'''USS ''Atlantis''''' might not be the newest of the [[Argonaut Class]] starships but she is currently the furthest from home, having recently come under the command of Commander Tikva Theodoras and assigned to the Delta Quadrant. Their mission is Starfleet's truest calling - to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to bold go where no one has gone before!

'''USS ''Atlantis''''' is one of the newest [[Sovereign Class]] starships constructed for [[Starfleet]] and assigned to the [[Fourth Fleet]]'s [[Task Force 47]] under the command of [[bfms_char:26791|Captain Tikva Theodoras]]. A product of the Beta Antares Shipyard, she features the latest in technological innovations and systems that have been incorporated into the modern design of ships of her class. With Task Force 47's remit of exploration in the [[Thomar Expanse]], she is well suited to provide tactical support for elements of the task force when required.
 
==Design and Layout==
While a modern built starship, the latest iteration of the ''Atlantis'' maintains design elements and aesthetics of the overall design generation. Her modern functionality exists just under a veneer of twenty-year-old design sensibilities, giving the ship a built-in classic feel.
 
[[File:AtlantisBridge1.jpg|left|thumb|Bridge of the USS ''Atlantis'']]Her primary bridge has taken lessons learned from the original [[Sovereign Class]] starships and made valuable improvements to remedy early teething issues with workspace and workflow design. In a throwback to another prior generation, the arch behind the command seats replaces separate free-floating consoles to the rear and either side of the center seats that had been first introduced on the early ships of the class. This removal of obstacles and centralisation of the primary Tactical station opened up the bridge, giving it an easier flow and roomier feel.
 
With further enhancements to key systems and movement of components elsewhere within the bridge module, space to the rear of the bridge has been made available to dedicate the volume to an expanded missions operations area. This multi-function space can be repurposed for any given task or situation, allowing for enhanced responsiveness and collaboration between on-duty department heads and command staff.
 
Normally this space remains configured for systems oversight and damage control, with the primary monitor defaulting to a Multifunction System Display, but as with all large monitors aboard ship, can be quickly reconfigured for a variety of tasks. It would not be uncommon during long transits for this space to be repurposed for survey work or control of the ship while the bridge itself might be used for simulation training of junior officers. Flight operations, crisis management, scientific research and many other pursuits can and will find themselves here at some point.

===The Captain's Mess===
[[File:Captainsmess.png|thumb|right|The Captain's Mess]]Compartment Deck Five Forward was by original design set aside as the captain's mess aboard ''Atlantis''. Within quick succession, the compartment and two smaller adjacent ones were redesigned to give the senior officers of the ship a relaxed social space that wasn't the ship's main lounge. Never a terribly populated locale, as interaction with the crew as a whole is encouraged, it does serve as a nice retreat whenever needed.
 
While typically the purview of the senior staff, department heads and their assistants, from time to time junior officers and crew members are invited to The Captain's Mess as an informal recognition, extended by either the captain or their department head. This would coincide with the presence of whoever extended the invitation, so turning down a chance to sit with the captain for drinks in a lounge with restricted access is not an invitation lightly turned down.
 
===The Keys===
The Keys are ''Atlantis''' first new totem. Replicated as a joke by Commander MacIntyre prior to the ship's commissioning, they are a simple set of three keys, purpose yet to be clarified, accompanied by a Starfleet delta. They've been adopted by the crew as the unofficial symbol of the watch, changing hands each shift or whenever control of the conn changes.
 
It is commonly accepted that the keys should never leave the bridge proper, not even to the captain's ready room. Rumours and dire predictions have circulated around the ship about what would happen in such a situation, from the breakdown of the ship to a sudden warp core detonation. Luckily for the more rational members of the crew, nothing bad has come of the multiple situations wherein senior officers have discovered they'd left the bridge without handing over the keys.

===First Contact===
TBC
''Atlantis''' first mission within the [[Delta Quadrant]], aside from contact with the Krenim Imperium and a Hirogen hunter, involved a species known as the Tarelans, a pre-warp civilization in midst of it's own early space-race. The two major powers of the world of Tarela, the United Republics of West Torin and the Monarchy of Krem, both had developed space programs, with the Monarchy having an outpost on their moon when ''Atlantis'' arrived, but the United Republics having a slightly more developed program with reusable landers and seemingly high-capacity heavy lifters coming into service.


Originally intending to observe the world in secret, recording the landing of a United Republics lander on the surface of the moon, Telrin, the ''Atlantis'' was spotted by keen eyed astronauts using just their eyes as a point of light, prompting military and civil astronomers to search for the ship, forcing them to withdraw away from Tarela and halt all planetary observations. With communication attempts from the local superpowers confirming they'd been spotted, Captain Theodoras committed a potentional Prime Directive breach to send a message to Tarela, reusing their own sent messages, informing them they would depart, but offering a message of hope for them. From where they sent the message the crew of the ''Atlantis'' also left a calling card so only later would explorers from Tarela be able to get to the stellar body and recover the artefact - a steel slab containing the location of the [[United Federation of Planets]], the name of the USS ''Atlantis'' and the names of the crew aboard at the time they left the Lauren system.

"Ad iter te audacter committe."
    —Abandon yourself boldly to the journey. - Ship's Dedication Quote


USS Atlantis is one of the newest Sovereign Class starships constructed for Starfleet and assigned to the Fourth Fleet's Task Force 47 under the command of Captain Tikva Theodoras. A product of the Beta Antares Shipyard, she features the latest in technological innovations and systems that have been incorporated into the modern design of ships of her class. With Task Force 47's remit of exploration in the Thomar Expanse, she is well suited to provide tactical support for elements of the task force when required.

Design and Layout

While a modern built starship, the latest iteration of the Atlantis maintains design elements and aesthetics of the overall design generation. Her modern functionality exists just under a veneer of twenty-year-old design sensibilities, giving the ship a built-in classic feel.

Bridge of the USS Atlantis

Her primary bridge has taken lessons learned from the original Sovereign Class starships and made valuable improvements to remedy early teething issues with workspace and workflow design. In a throwback to another prior generation, the arch behind the command seats replaces separate free-floating consoles to the rear and either side of the center seats that had been first introduced on the early ships of the class. This removal of obstacles and centralisation of the primary Tactical station opened up the bridge, giving it an easier flow and roomier feel.

With further enhancements to key systems and movement of components elsewhere within the bridge module, space to the rear of the bridge has been made available to dedicate the volume to an expanded missions operations area. This multi-function space can be repurposed for any given task or situation, allowing for enhanced responsiveness and collaboration between on-duty department heads and command staff.

Normally this space remains configured for systems oversight and damage control, with the primary monitor defaulting to a Multifunction System Display, but as with all large monitors aboard ship, can be quickly reconfigured for a variety of tasks. It would not be uncommon during long transits for this space to be repurposed for survey work or control of the ship while the bridge itself might be used for simulation training of junior officers. Flight operations, crisis management, scientific research and many other pursuits can and will find themselves here at some point.

The Captain's Mess

The Captain's Mess

Compartment Deck Five Forward was by original design set aside as the captain's mess aboard Atlantis. Within quick succession, the compartment and two smaller adjacent ones were redesigned to give the senior officers of the ship a relaxed social space that wasn't the ship's main lounge. Never a terribly populated locale, as interaction with the crew as a whole is encouraged, it does serve as a nice retreat whenever needed.

While typically the purview of the senior staff, department heads and their assistants, from time to time junior officers and crew members are invited to The Captain's Mess as an informal recognition, extended by either the captain or their department head. This would coincide with the presence of whoever extended the invitation, so turning down a chance to sit with the captain for drinks in a lounge with restricted access is not an invitation lightly turned down.

The Keys

The Keys are Atlantis' first new totem. Replicated as a joke by Commander MacIntyre prior to the ship's commissioning, they are a simple set of three keys, purpose yet to be clarified, accompanied by a Starfleet delta. They've been adopted by the crew as the unofficial symbol of the watch, changing hands each shift or whenever control of the conn changes.

It is commonly accepted that the keys should never leave the bridge proper, not even to the captain's ready room. Rumours and dire predictions have circulated around the ship about what would happen in such a situation, from the breakdown of the ship to a sudden warp core detonation. Luckily for the more rational members of the crew, nothing bad has come of the multiple situations wherein senior officers have discovered they'd left the bridge without handing over the keys.
