U.S.S. Newgrange

The U.S.S. Newgrange represents three decades of engineering advancements and technological innovation. A joint project between the Starfleet Science Academy and the Vulcan Ni’Var Science Institute, this magnificent vessel boasts a revolutionary refracting light-wave system, channeling excess energy from its nacelles and forming that energy into light waves. These light waves are then narrowed and focused into a superheated laser, capable of piercing even the hardest geological surfaces. Named after its design inspiration in Ireland, Earth, the Newgrange is the first step towards expanding the Federation’s mining technology into the 24th century.
