USS Odyssey (NCC-71832)

The USS Odyssey (NCC-71832) was a Galaxy-class Federation starship in service during the 24th century. By 2370, the Odyssey was under the command of Captain Declan Keogh.

In 2370, the Odyssey assisted the USS Enterprise-D and USS Constitution in preventing non-corporeal "demons" from spreading their evil influence throughout the galaxy. (TNG novel: Possession).

A few months later, the Odyssey docked at Deep Space 9 to help establish a Bajoran farming colony on Bajor's second moon. While on the moon, the Bajoran terrorist Orta unearthed the second Malkus Artifact and began using the device to disintegrate his enemies. After stealing the DS9 runabout, USS Rio Grande, the Odyssey managed to stop Orta's plans. (DS9 novella: "The Second Artifact", The Brave and the Bold).

Following this incident, the Odyssey was assigned a patrol of the Demilitarized Zone. However, she was forced to return to DS9 when news reached the station that Commander Benjamin Sisko and Quark had been taken prisoner by the Jem'Hadar. The Odyssey entered the Gamma Quadrant along with a complement of three runabouts from DS9. Shortly after, the small task force was engaged by the Jem'Hadar. Following the rescue of Commander Sisko and his team the task force began to withdraw, but the Odyssey was rammed by a Jem'Hadar Attack Fighter which instantly destroyed the starship. (DS9 episode: "The Jem'Hadar").
