USS Aephas

The USS Aephas was a Federation science vessel in service in the 2260s.

In 2269, the Aephas was under the command of Commander Mahmud al-Khaled, late of the USS Lovell, and many of its crew were former members of the Lovell as well. That year, the Aephas provided support and resupply for the planet Cantrel V, and was in orbit when an alien ship attacked the Tài Shan colony.
