USS Kansas (NCC-30608)



The USS Kansas (NCC-30608) was a Galaxy-class Federation Starfleet starship in service in the 2350s.

History
The Kansas was commissioned in 2357. Like her counterpart the Enterprise, she was the fifth Federation starship to bear the name Kansas. In 2360 Lieutenant Typhuss James Halliwell is assigned to the USS Kansas as science officer.

In 2371 Typhuss is assigned to the USS Voyager as science officer, Typhuss leaves the USS Kansas after 11 years.

The Gamma Quadrant mission
In 2371 the USS Kansas's mission was to meet the USS Yorktown at Deep Space 9 for final crew members and personnel before continuing on to the Gamma Quadrant for it’s mission of exploration. While at DS9 Captain Walker received his final orders via Commander Benjamin Sisko. The standing orders were primarily exploration and the Kansas was only to fire in defence and only if communications were unavailable. Captain Walker relayed the orders to his ship and departed DS9 and entered the wormhole officially starting its first mission into the Gamma Quadrant.

Final week in the Gamma Quadrant
The Kansas came under attack from a Jem'Hadar attack ship, while retrieving one of her long range shuttles. The Kansas managed to destroy the ship after hails were ignored by the Jem'Hadar. Due to extensive damage on the star drive section, Captain Walker gave the order to return to the wormhole. The Kansas arrived at DS9 requesting permission to dock at one of the upper pylons Captain Sisko agreed. But due to the increased threats of Founder infiltration, the crew of the Kansas was subjected to blood screenings and phaser sweeps of the saucer section before the ship was allowed to dock. Walker gave his report to Starfleet Command via subspace.
