The world that was selected was [[Tiren III]]. The planet was inhabited by the [[Tirensu]] a [[humanoid]] society at the preindustrial era of their cultural development. This would normally not be allowed, but the presence of a Scientific Observation Station on the planet commanded by [[Rank| Lieutenant Commander]] [[Erika Marks]] allowed close oversight of the time spent planet side.
==History==


Several members of the ship's crew took advantage of the time on the planet's surface. Some of the crew selected an oceanfront area, where they enjoyed some sand and sun.


Another group scaled the planet's largest mountain under the guidance of [[Baylon Trinin]]. The same group also undertook some hunting and other outdoors activities including some skiing and base jumping.
The Bluebird class was designed for Starfleet to fulfil the need for confidential material and communiqués that could not be transmitted by subspace communication to be carried securely and safely. Up to this point ships like the modified Defiant Pathfinder had been used to fore fill this vital courier role. The Bluebird class was a cheaper and reliable option to bolster the small number to Defiant Pathfinders.  


A small number of the ship's crew set up minor camp sites on the planet where either small groups or couples could spend time together. Some of these were romantic little getaways.
The Bluebird class took technology and designs that had been incorporated into small ships like the Defiant, Nova and Sabre Classes. The Bluebird class four nacelles design means that it has the ability to cover a distance of 50.5 light years within six days which is the equivalent to Warp 9.982. This distance is achieved by alternating or (Bouncing) the twin matter-antimatter reaction cores and nacelle pairs. This has lead to the phrase of “ Core Bouncing”.  


In one instance, [[Darla Wright]] imaged local wildlife and was actually the first to catalog several species.
The Bluebird class dose not have a large cargo capacity as compared to other courier. Due to this it was fitted with two sets of twin isolinear processing cores which gave the Bluebird class a capacity of 500 megaquads. This meant that the Bluebird class carries confidential data rather then materials.
As well as the computer cores the Bluebird class carries the most up to date sensor package and weapons. This is due to the highly confidential information that the    class was out fitted with weapons and armour more suited for larger ships. They also have a squad of marines on board whose purpose is to keep the ship and its contents secure.


After 14 standard days, the Hades returned from a medical relief mission and the crew were removed from the planet after they carefully removed all traces of their existence, so as to not provide any unexpected technological or cultural contamination to the Tirensu.
In the early 2414, Starfleet looked at overhauling the Bluebird class. The USS Road Runner was chosen as a test bed vessel. Its refit and over haul was extended to incorporate the changes that Starfleet command wanted to incorporate. They wanted to incorporate a surveyor role into its small frame. With the speed and large data storage capacity it was a more cost effective then upgrading larger vessels. The ship’s long range sensors were upgraded along with its hull, warp engines and impulse engines. The Roadrunner’s computer core was also expanded and a Super-intelligent Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tactical Mission Advisor was integrated into the system.

History[edit]

The Bluebird class was designed for Starfleet to fulfil the need for confidential material and communiqués that could not be transmitted by subspace communication to be carried securely and safely. Up to this point ships like the modified Defiant Pathfinder had been used to fore fill this vital courier role. The Bluebird class was a cheaper and reliable option to bolster the small number to Defiant Pathfinders.

The Bluebird class took technology and designs that had been incorporated into small ships like the Defiant, Nova and Sabre Classes. The Bluebird class four nacelles design means that it has the ability to cover a distance of 50.5 light years within six days which is the equivalent to Warp 9.982. This distance is achieved by alternating or (Bouncing) the twin matter-antimatter reaction cores and nacelle pairs. This has lead to the phrase of “ Core Bouncing”.

The Bluebird class dose not have a large cargo capacity as compared to other courier. Due to this it was fitted with two sets of twin isolinear processing cores which gave the Bluebird class a capacity of 500 megaquads. This meant that the Bluebird class carries confidential data rather then materials. As well as the computer cores the Bluebird class carries the most up to date sensor package and weapons. This is due to the highly confidential information that the class was out fitted with weapons and armour more suited for larger ships. They also have a squad of marines on board whose purpose is to keep the ship and its contents secure.

In the early 2414, Starfleet looked at overhauling the Bluebird class. The USS Road Runner was chosen as a test bed vessel. Its refit and over haul was extended to incorporate the changes that Starfleet command wanted to incorporate. They wanted to incorporate a surveyor role into its small frame. With the speed and large data storage capacity it was a more cost effective then upgrading larger vessels. The ship’s long range sensors were upgraded along with its hull, warp engines and impulse engines. The Roadrunner’s computer core was also expanded and a Super-intelligent Artificial Intelligence (AI) Tactical Mission Advisor was integrated into the system.
