The USS Rosenante is a starship currently serving in the Starfleet of the United Federation of Planets. The ship was launched in 2408, and at the time was the only ship of the Rosenante Class. She is currently assigned to the 52nd Fleet. Her Original design was as a privateer, and she was initally to be deployed by Admiral Doenitz to be used against those that opposed him. However the vessel could not be deployed before the end of the Federation Civil War. As a result the Rosenante was captured at Utopia Planitia immediately after the Battle of Sector 001. She has since been refitted and reclassified as a long-range Explorer. Her original designs specifications were part of the controversial Chimera Directive. The vessel's core design encompasses 28 decks. USS Rosenante Deck Plans are available to those with appropriate security clearance.

The crew of the USS Rosenante is considered to be one of the most diversely crewed ships in the fleet. The Officers who serve aboard her come from a wide variety of backgrounds and worlds, each bringing their own unique perspectives and experiences to the overall performance of the ship. There are personnel both old and new aboard ship who all strive together to overcome the challenges and risks that the universe throws at them. They are explorers, lovers and warriors all dedicated to the betterment of the United Federation of Planets and it's principles.

The Rosenante is currently undertaking a 5-year survey mission in Sector 6309, which is considered strategically crucial for the potential expansion of the United Federation of Planets. This mission is reminiscent of the 5-year survey missions conducted by the Constitution Class starships of the 2200's.

Captain's Log Supplemental

Things have been moving along normally since we left the Kozani shipyards. We have been extra vigilant in watching for the spontaneous plasma field storms that caused us such trouble recently, but we have also been certain to continue with our survey of sector 6309.
Recently we detected a freighter at long range scan, which appears to be unmanned. As the vessel has since been identified as the SS Lalo, a ship which was stolen by a group of separatists, we have decided to investigate.
However, it does not appear that we are the only Starfleet vessel in the area, as we have now also made contact with the USS Boudicca. I have to ask myself what strange auspices are aligning here for two of the core ships of the 52nd fleet to come together at a single seemingly abandoned vessel as the Lalo. I hope that we can get to the bottom of the mystery, sooner rather than later.
