U.S.S. Neptune

The Neptune was a Defiant class Federation starship. In 2376, the Neptune was commanded by Captain Landwaring and was the flagship of Task Force Javelin, which was sent to locate the source of the Genesis Wave. The Neptune was last heard from in the Boneyard, where it discovered a derelict shuttlepod.^[1] The Neptune later arrived, derelict and abandoned, at Myrmidon. Commander Beverly Crusher of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-E took a skeleton crew over to the Neptune, where they were infected by an unknown life form, which caused them to attack Myrmidon. The Enterprise transported the crew back aboard, and the Neptune was destroyed by the Genesis Wave.^[2]
