The USS Nestus is a Raven class corvette assigned to the Fourth Fleet, operating out of Starbase 72. Specialist social sciences teams from the starbase are rotated onto the Nestus on a mission-by-mission basis. Equipped to venture on missions of a month or less, the Nestus comfortably accommodates a variable crew of 10 to 20.
Since 2399, the Nestus and her interim crews has been commanded by Commander Taes on archaeology and anthropology missions. With an etymology dating back to a mythological river god, the USS Nestus serves as a winding link between lakes of mystery and the oceanic depths of undiscovered knowledge. Be it missions of exploration, research or diplomacy, the crew of Nestus seeks out the undefined bonds that hold civilizations together.
Operational History
Storm in a Teacup
On her first mission in 2400, the USS Nestus conducted an anthropological study into Federation emergency management through the experiences of Eldflaugar lunar colonists, who were displaced from their homes by the Century Storm. The colonists were relocated to the planet Haven by the USS Gheryzan and the crew of the Nestus embedded in the Gheryzan's relief efforts to begin observations of the survivors of Eldflaugar. As survivors were canvassed for their informed consent to participate in the study, the crew's anthropologists began ethnographic interviews to understand the survivors current and ancestral experiences of coping through disasters.
Mission logs from the Nestus note several irregularities to the mission, including the discovery of leading questions in the ethnographic interview and Commander Taes taking the Eldflaugar leaders on an orbit of Haven in one of the Gheryzan's shuttles without a documented flight plan. Following a thorough audit of the study, the crew of the Nestus was able to complete their anthropological survey with the blessing of the Eldflaugar. All of the gathered data was delivered to a science team on Starbase Bravo for further study.
