The USS Zheng He (NCC-150) was a Federation starship, a Daedalus-class science vessel in Starfleet service in the mid-23rd century. Captain Bridget McKinnon was the ship's commanding officer. (STO - Agents of Yesterday mission: "In the Shadow of Cestus")
Service history and disposition
In the year 2270, the Zheng He conducted mineralogical research in the Edren system, together with the Gorn Hegemony. The Hegemony and the Federation shared the system and its resources when it was created out of nowhere by the Metron Consortium. Captain McKinnon contacted the USS Pioneer when the ship arrived in the system to support the research. Doctor Ward led the research on Edren IV's surface. When a Gorn ship exploded in the planet's orbit, the Gorn suspected foul play by the Federation and became hostile. Ward and the researchers were taken hostage. The Zheng He was no match for the Hegemonial presence in the system. McKinnon asked Pioneer's CO to help rescue them. The Pioneer's investigation led to the revelation that the Romulan Star Empire had caused the destruction of the Kulshedra-class battleship. Gorn and Starfleet subsequently joined forces to fight the attacking Khenn-class cruisers and Vas Hatham-class birds-of-prey. (STO - Agents of Yesterday mission: "In the Shadow of Cestus")
Zheng He was lost some time prior to the year 2273. (TOS novel: Ex Machina)
