|
|
A Merced class starship relates to a Federation ship from the sci-fi series Star Trek.
Merced class starships:
- U.S.S. Trieste - registry number NCC-37124
- The Trieste was stationed near Starbase 74 and was unable to render assistance when the Enterprise-D was hijacked by the Bynars in 2364. The Trieste was some 66 hours away at the time.
- Data served aboard the Trieste prior to his assignment to the Enterprise-D. During Data's tour of duty on the Trieste, the ship once fell through a wormhole.
- The Tieste was named for the bathyscaphe in which oceanographer Jacques Piccard (for whom Captain Picard was named) explored Earth's marianas in the 1960s.
