The USS Shanessa (NCC-9005) was a Federation starship, a Thomas Paine-class class IX frigate starship that was in service to Starfleet in the 24th century.
Construction of the Shanessa was completed on reference stardate 2/9107, in the latter part of the 2350s decade. This vessel was commissioned at one of the two shipyards that produced Paine-class vessels, either Deneva Shipyards or Gibraltar Shipyards.
