These are the voyages of the Starship Lexington. Its five-year mission: to explore strange new worlds, uncover the ruins of ancient civilisations and understand their technology.
A century later, in 2371, Lexington’s namesake is assigned to join a new initiative to explore the Shackleton Expanse on the far side of the Klingon Empire. A series of discoveries display a remarkable similarity to those discovered in 2269, but there are indications that the civilisation that left them may not be extinct.
Stardate, 48127.2. Arriving at Narendra Station to take up her new assignment, U.S.S. Lexington hardly has time to pick up some new crew members, before heading out to rescue a missing team of scientists.
Stardate, 48127.5. Lexington has found the missing vessel, but her crew are actively helping a pre-warp society avoid a cataclysm. The Prime Directive may not apply to civilians, but it does put a Starfleet crew in an awkward position.
Stardate, 48198.3. When Captain Adred resigns his commission and disappears in the middle of the night, the crew suspects foul play. However, their mission must continue, as they deliver supplies to a remote station, under a strict new commanding officer.
Stardate, 48213.1. Escaping from the lift shaft, Lexington’s away team aids in disaster recovery, fights nefarious pirates and discovers what really caused the explosions.
Stardate, 48321.4. Lexington uncovers the tragic story of neighbouring worlds that appear to have been obliterated by simultaneous asteroid impacts.
Stardate, 48625.7. While escorting a convoy to a remote science outpost, MupwI’ has suffered damage to her warp drive, leaving Lexington to defend against a horde of pirates alone.
Stardate, 48673.4. Sent to assist with the evacuation of a team of archaeologists from a system in danger of imminent destruction, Lexington is nearly caught in the catastrophe herself.
Stardate 48942.6. Captain Konin and his senior officers attend a briefing concerning the archaeological discoveries made so far and the potential of a new site close to the Romulan border, before being sent to take a closer look.
Stardate, 48964.5. Captain Konin leads the entire Starfleet flotilla back to Candidate Three, in an attempt to secure the Ancients’ advanced technology against the Romulans and find out what is really going on.
Stardate, 48965.2. Lexington and Bellerophon attempt to aid Assessor Tredik in saving the vulnerable Tilikaal from the planetary collision, while Thunderchild keeps the Romulans from interfering.
