The USS Constitution (NCC-91700) is a Constitution III-class Federation starship and was the prototype for the class. The Constitution is an explorer and was launched in 2400. Initially she remained at the San Francisco Fleet Yards undergoing reviews and tests on her new systems. Though others of her class had been launched, the Constitution played the role of test-bed until mid-2401. After the fiasco at Frontier Day, Starfleet decided to send off with a permanent captain and crew.
Captain Horatio McCallister was given command of the ship by Fleet Admiral Luke Duncan and ordered to join the Odyssey Squadron. McCallister had previously command the USS Bellerophon and was interim captain on the USS Triton. As both of these vessels suffered heavy damage from the events surrounding Frontier Day, those crewmembers who had survived and were available were assigned to the Constitution.
