They didn't get far with their experiments before the Borg attacked the ship. These were the members of the crew on the Niger after the Borg destroyed the Endeavour.Įarly in 2381, the Endeavour was sent to a sector adjacent to the Azure Nebula to test a new sensor system intended to better detect quantum filaments, with the aid of several civilian scientists. The only sensors working were the proximity detection system in the primary hull and part of the prototype quantum subspace sensors which allowed the crew to track warp trails.Įverything else about this craft was base-line standard for the Danube-class Runabout line of space craft. By the time the USS Theurgy encountered the Runabout, this recode was incomplete rendering most of the Niger's sensors useless.

This actually required a rewrite of most of the sensor code since the original had trouble accounting for the inherent instabilities in the quantum realm. Personally programmed by Marlee Hailey so that the Runabout could understand the new sensor information being fed to the LCARS. The space craft also utilized a modified version of the standard LCARS Operating System. This however was not the case as the upgraded sensors were not completed so the science stations were left inactive. These were intended to be connected to the multi-mission pod to be used to configure the sensor package on the fly for the duration of the experiment. The Niger was also configured to operate as a science vessel, containing four science stations in the aft modular compartment. It was designed to work in conjunction with the primary sensor suite located in the main hull to amplify the quantum subspace signature of quantum filaments, an astrophysical phenomenon that had proven quite hard to detect normally and quite dangerous to starships.
Though by the time that the USS Theurgy encountered the Niger, this package was incomplete. The Niger featured a multi-mission module in the 'roll bar' that contained a prototype quantum subspace sensor package. A two person transporter was at the rear of the cabin, with swappable mission modules aft of the cabin. The Danube featured a front cabin for the crew of pilot, co-pilot/navigator and two mission specialists. This vehicle was designed to accomplish four main missions the ability to perform rapid response scientific expedition transportation, the ability to act as an orbital or landed temporary operations base for science missions, the ability to transport intact experiment and cargo modules, and the ability to perform tactical missions such as intelligence gathering, covert insertion/extraction of personnel, and disruption of threat activities where feasible. The Danube-class Runabout was first commissioned in 2363. When the Endeavour was destroyed by a Borg cube in late February of 2381, her crew decided to trace the origin from whence the Borg had come, and even though its communication systems were damaged in the destruction of the Endeavour, the crew had faith that they might encounter another ship and warn them about the pending Borg thread to the Alpha Quadrant. The USS Niger was a modified multirole interstellar craft stationed aboard the USS Endeavour.
