USS Callisto

The USS Callisto was a Federation starship that was in service with Starfleet in the mid-24th century. In 2364, this starship was commanded by Seth Goldberg.

In that year, on stardate 41607.9, this starship received an order from Vice Admiral Maxwell Headroom of the Starfleet Planetary Geosciences Division. According to this order, the Callisto had been assigned a mission to the planet Gamma Argus II. The parameters of this mission included a cultural evolution study and, at the discretion of the captain, an initial first contact. Under the terms of this first contact scenario, Captain Goldberg would be acting as an agent of the United Federation of Planets. The captain was to acknowledge this order on subspace com net security code 045, code 100 alpha.

This starship was following up on a mission taken earlier that year by the USS Mustang, and would be joined in the system by the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D). This latter ship had been ordered to the system by Admiral Gregory Quinn of Starfleet Operational Support Services.

At the end of that year, Data read the order received by the Callisto from Starfleet and several others to investigate claims of a conspiracy among the highest members of Starfleet Command.
