The USS Aldebaran was a Nebula-class Federation starship in Starfleet service in the 24th century, named for the star system at Aldebaran.
History[]
In 2374, the Aldebaran was part of the Task Force sent to retake the Setlik system from the Dominion. (SCE eBook: War Stories, Book 1)
In 2376, Aldebaran, under the command of Captain Robison, was assigned as a support vessel to Deep Space 9 while the station and its usual support vessel the USS Defiant underwent a major refit.
Just a few days into the posting at DS9, the Aldebaran was destroyed in battle against a trio of rogue Jem'Hadar vessels who had hoped to re-ignite the war with the Alpha Quadrant. (DS9 - Avatar novel: Book One)
The wreckage of the Aldebaran caused the Bajoran wormhole to open every few hours. Jake Sisko used the wreckage to sneak into the wormhole on the Venture, a small craft that he acquired from Quark. (DS9 - Avatar novel: Book Two)
