The USS Enterprise has arrived at Deneb IV. We have taken up orbit alongside the USS Hood (Excelsior-class) -- which was awaiting our arrival, and have begun transferring our final crew aboard, including our new first officer, Commander William Riker, and our assigned chief medical officer, Commander Beverly Crusher. For a large part of the day, we also had a surprise visit from retired Starfleet admiral, Leonard McCoy, who wanted to tour our state-of-the-art medical facilities before the USS Hood left orbit.
As of an hour ago, the USS Hood has departed Deneb IV, leaving the USS Enterprise-D, and her full crew, to complete our diplomatic mission with Deneb IV’s native Bandi. Mission operations are likely to begin tomorrow morning, during Alpha Shift.
