The USS Ganymede[3] (NCC-80107[1]) was a 24th century Federation starship, a Luna-class science vessel in Starfleet service from the 2370s decade. (TTN novel: Sword of Damocles, "Titan Fold-out")
Service history[]
Namesakes[]
Like all Luna-class starships, the Ganymede was named after a moon in the Sol star system. In this instance, Ganymede. In turn, these were named after Human mythology from the history of the planet Earth. (TNG novel: Greater Than the Sum)
A Starfleet vessel named USS Ganymede (NCC-18451) was active by the year 2364. (TNG episode: "Conspiracy")
Active service[]
The first batch of Luna-class starships entered service in the year 2379. The Amalthea, Callisto, Europa and the Io were also named after moons of Jupiter. (TTN novel: Taking Wing, "Luna Class Concept Notes")
By the year 2380 of the First Splinter[4] timeline, Starfleet had sent its Luna-class science vessels on missions of exploration, including the Ganymede. (TTN novel: Sword of Damocles, "Titan Fold-out")
In the year 2380, the Ganymede was exploring the rimward half of the Gum Nebula near the Orion Arm in the Beta Quadrant, while the USS Titan explored the coreward half. (TTN novel: Orion's Hounds)
The Ganymede and USS Titan were paired off to explore a similar area of the Gum Nebula, but the Ganymede had to return to the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards due to damage. The USS Charon replaced the Ganymede on this mission. Unfortunately, the Charon was lost two months later at Orisha. (TTN novels: Sword of Damocles, Over a Torrent Sea)
In February 2381, Admiral Masc reminded Captain William T. Riker of the swap between Ganymede and Charon. (TTN novel: Over a Torrent Sea)
By 2386, the Ganymede was re-tasked from its mission in the Gum Nebula and replaced by the USS Proxima. (TTN novel: Sight Unseen)
In 2401 this ship's position near the Spacedock was seen in a display graphic aboard the USS Titan-A. The ship was later involved in the Frontier Day celebrations that went awry after its younger crew was assimilated by the Borg Collective through a signal transmitted through Jack Crusher. (PIC Episode: "Võx")
