Ship's Motto quoted from the Declaration of Independence by Thomas Jefferson


The USS PROVIDENCE is the second ERICSSON-class starship to be built. Originally commissioned as the USS MARCO POLO, the ship was renamed to replace the INTREPID-class PROVIDENCE after its untimely destruction. The most noteworthy systems include a holographic cloaking device, greater use and efficiency of holographic technology, multi-layered regenerative shields, metaphasic shields, and a matter-to-anti- matter conversion generator (MAM Convertor), making fuel resupply almost perpetual.

The USS PROVIDENCE is classified as a Long-range Scout that is equipped for long-term, long-range missions. The types of missions that this class starship usually perform includes scientific surveys, mapping, first-contact, and scientific missions.

This starship typically houses a compliment of about 60 persons, but the normal crew can be supplimented by more than 40 holographic crewmen as needed.
