The USS Tubman (NCC-1757-B) was a 24th century Federation starship, a Constellation-class exploratory cruiser in service to Starfleet in the 2360s decade.
Service history and disposition
In the year 2366, the Tubman was assigned to visit Mariposa, to follow up on the actions taken there by the crew of the USS Enterprise a year earlier. However, the leaders of the newly formed United Ficus Colony did not welcome these visitors. (SCE eBook: Out of the Cocoon)
By 2368, the Tubman-B was reassigned as a training vessel. The ship had a run-in with Catarr brigands while on a training cruise in that year. (TNG comic: "Wet Behind the Ears")
- Though there is no direct connection between the two stories, it is presumed the same ship is referenced in both due to the closeness of their timeframes.

Background
The depiction of the Tubman on the J.K. Moore cover art for "Wet Behind the Ears" shows a standard Constellation-class starship configuration as seen onscreen in canon, but the interior art shows the vessel has a different warp engine configuration, similar to the Constellation-class ships shown in FASA RPG reference: Star Trek: The Next Generation Officer's Manual.
