==History==
===20304240304.22===
USS Copernicus GSC - 9035 was launched under automatic computer control from Starbase Alpha, .On Stardate 20304240304.22 it detected an incoming Borg vessel, and Star Fleet designation 'wedge'was initiated. Using the sensor array, the Borg bio-neural frequency was detected and jammed. Disruption of Borg Collective on the vessel was immediate and complete. Channel A channel was opened to USS Titan CL - 2007 and USS Agincourt CA - 1412. Orders , and orders to destroy inactive Borg ship were sent . At battle completion, automatic control returned the ship to assigned docking position and receivedsystems were placed in standby.
At battle completion, automatic control returned vessel to assigned docking position and systems placed in standby.   ===20401240401.15===
After being upgraded at Star Base Alpha, the USS Copernicus was ordered to bring [[Linden, Jeffrey |Admiral Jeffrey Linden]] to Star Base Bravo.
Then the ship under [[Lanael, Ysiadina |Captain Ysiadina Lanael]] took the ship to an unexplored sector with a registered Class O and Class Q planets. Captain Ysiandia took a team to the Class O planet while [[Syntranos, Darsyn |Commander Darsyn Syntranos]] took a team to the Class Q planet. A sentient species known as the Zshe was found on the Class Q planet. The Commander’s team also found that mining equipment had been set up on the planet by another species, the Dopterians: whom possessed familiar appearances to Ferengi, and apparently morales morals and interests. The Dopterians were mining latium latinum from the Class Q planet which were was severely hurting the native Zshe.
In the mess of trying to deal with the Dopterians, an incident involving Lieutenant Tor-ith Cateil evolved into a full on battle. As it turned out, a A Cardassian warship had entered the system and began to move moved in to attack the Copernicus. All away teams were called back to the vessel, but Captain Ysiandia Lanael’s shuttle was destroyed on the return trip, leaving Commander Syntranos in command.
When the Copernicus engaged the Cardassian warship, the Federation vessel’s shields were nullnil. The crew learned that the the Cardassians had somehow obtained their shield modulation frequency. Medical, lead led by [[Jal, Kinziri| Lieutenant Commander Kinziri Jal]], was able to sustain treat the large amount of injured crew members effectively. Once the The Chief Engineer, Lieutenant Rillith, indicated that the ship was dead in space , and the Cardassians began to board.
Lieutenant Karl Brackett, and Lieutenant Ferguson were able to keep the ship from falling into Cardassian hands before Commander Syntranos ejected the remaining boarding parties into space.
Able to restore some power to the ship, Commander Syntranos ordered the ship to scrape the enemies shields, which ended up furthering the Copernicus’ damage but destroying the Cardassian vessel.
===240409.25===
Repaired and refit once more, [[Godard, Elisa|Captain Elisa Godard]] was the new Commanding Officer, and the ship sent to investigate a nebula where a Borg transwarp conduit had been located. The Copernicus entered the warp conduit but was violently ejected out of it into the Magellanic Cloud, damaged and partially disabled. At this point, [[Avark|Lieutenant Commander Avark]], Chief of Security, discovered a Cardassian saboteur aboard who was eventually captured and put into the brig. The COS relieved himself of duty after he began to feel unwell, and a parasite was eventually discovered that led to erratic behaviour.
===20409A large asteroid was than on approach to the Copernicus. Unable to avoid its path, the ship fired on it. The asteroid shell fizzled away and revealed an alien vessel which fired upon the Copernicus. The ship was not destroyed, merely drained of energy before leaving.25===
Repaired The Cardassian saboteur managed to escape containment and refit once morecaused trouble on the ship, including the ship is given to death of Lieutenant Commander Avark’s lover: Lieutenant Junior Grade Susan Caffery. [[GodardVinzz, ElisaShard|Captain Elisa GodardMidshipman Shard Vinzz]] was able to bring the Cardassian to Security and sent to investigate a nebulae where a Borg transwarp conduit had been locatedseal him in the brig. The Copernicus enters Later, the warp conduit but is violently ejected out of it into Cardassian was somehow beamed from the Magellanic Cloud, damaged and partially disabled. At this pointbrig to Holodeck 1 using Avark's codes, where he was engaged in melee combat by [[AvarkTrem, Imrix|Lieutenant Commander AvarkImrix Trem]] (head of , the ship’s Security) discovered a Cardassian saboteur aboard and was in the process of finding themchief Engineer. HoweverBoth were wounded greatly, but the Chief Medical Officer and First Officer, Lieutenant Commander Munroe and Commander Prolog. Munroe was put into stasisCardassian died of his wounds.
A large asteroid Strange things began to happen on the ship including delusional behaviour from several personnel. [[Lacey, Ariana|Lieutenant Commander Ariana Lacey]], CSO, shot Crewman Smith and was than on approach relieved of duty. In a chase at the Computer core, Commander Lacey injured two more crew members before attempting to shoot the Captain. The shot missed, and hit the computer core causing a catastrophic malfunction and subsequent explosion: severely injuring Captain Godard. Then Lieutenant Commander Avark was arrested, and newly appointed Lieutenant Junior Grade Shard Vinzz was left in command of Security for a short time while the Copernicusparasite was removed and Avark put back into command of Security. Unable The alien vessel managed to avoid its pathfire a purple beam at the Copernicus, they fired on itand Lacey was abducted from the bridge. The asteroid shell fizzles away and revealed an alien vessel which fired upon then retreated and the Copernicusfollowed it to a nearby planet, swarming with other alien ships of the same kind. However, they ignored the Copernicus, and an away team was dispatched to the planet where Lacey had been taken. The team were put through a gladiatorial 'alien Olympics.' Lacey was retrieved. Eventually the ship was not destroyed, merely drained of energy before leavingable to return home thanks to Ensign Abaa who was able to engineer the conduit to bring them home.
The Cardassian saboteur, managed to escape containment and caused trouble on the ship, including the death of Lieutenant Commander Avark’s lover: Lieutenant Junior Grade Susan Caffery. [[Vinzz, Shard|Midshipman Shard Vinzz]] was able to bring the Cardassian to Security and seal him in the brig. Later, the Cardassian was somehow beamed to Holodeck 1 where he engaged [[Trem, Imrix|Lieutenant Imrix Trem]], the chief Engineer. Both were wounded greatly, but the Cardassian died of his wounds===240512. 22===
Strange things began to happen on the ship: [[LaceyThe Copernicus, Ariana|Lieutenant Commander Ariana Lacey]]along with Titan and Yeager, CSOwas tasked to explore and catalogue a hidden system with just over 100 planets to analyze, shot Crewman Smith and the Copernicus was relieved of duty. In a chase at assigned the Computer core, Commander Lacey injured two more crew members before attempting mid-system to shoot the Captaininvestigate. The shot missed, and hit After being given temporary command of the Computer Core causing a catastrophic malfunction and subsequent explosion: severely injuring Captain Godard. Thenship, Lieutenant First Officer Commander Avark was arrested and newly appointed Lieutenant Junior Grade Shard Vinzz was left in command of Security Avark’s biotic implants malfunctioned causing him to lose consciousness for a short time before several minutes. An away team led by Commander Ariana Lacey was abducting from sent to the bridge and Avark put back into command of SecurityBotticelli homeworld--an previously unregistered species. After gladiatorial games for Lieutenant Commander Avark, delusional problems Crowhurst was picked for Lieutenant Tremthe vacant CTO position, and at least two murders on the ship they were able to return home thanks to Ensign Abba who was able to engineer the conduit to bring them homeLieutnant Tru resigned from Medical.
Chaos struck the Copernicus and allies almost simultaneously. The Yeager was lost to sensors and communications. Commander Lacey’s away team also fell out of communication, and more shuttles were lost from sensors or comms. Commander Avark was killed by a malignant virus created by Crewman Smith. Commander Avark, however, was stored in Holographic form. The Titan suffered from minor communication problems as well as some navigational issues.
Captain Godard ordered all ships to return and a full tactical analysis of the situation. The consensus was to retreat from the system. After finding the Yeager smashed into the pieces, the survivors were rescued and the remaining ships returned to [[Starbase Alpha]]
===20512240802.2203===Klingon activity was detected in the Vigo System. In a rushed attempt to find answers, the Copernicus was sent to investigate. Captain Elisa Goddard departed for a personal mission and First Officer [[Jackson, Areack|Commander Areack Jackson]] was placed in command. Towards the end of the mission, newly arrived [[Dys, Gloria|Lieutenant Commander Gloria Dys] became First Officer as Godard was not to return.
The Copernicus, along with Titan and Yeager, are tasked to explore and catalogue a hidden A Klingon space station was found in the Vigo system with just over 100 planets to analyze. The Copernicus was assigned Science department deduced that the Klingons were creating artificial wormholes, but had not harnessed the mid-system ability to investigateeffectively control them. After being given temporary command of the ship, First Officer The Klingon Base Commander Avark’s biotic implants malfunctioned causing him to lose consciousness made a request for several minutesthe Copernicus’ help as the unstable wormhole was in danger of ripping apart their station. An away team lead by Commander Ariana Lacey was sent to help the Botticelli homeworld--an unregistered species. Lieutenant Commander Crowhurst was picked for Klingons, but the vacant CTO position, team and Lieutnant Tru resigned from Medicalthe Klingons were dragged through the wormhole unexpectedly.
Chaos struck The away team was transported to a desert planet--but the Klingons would not reveal any information about the Copernicus wormhole terminus and allies almost simultaneouslywere uncooperative. The Yeager Firing a probe into the wormhole, the Copernicus was lost able to sensors find and communications.

The Titan suffered from minor communication problems as well as some navigational delemeaspermanent vegetative state.
Captain Godard ordered all ships En route back to return and a full tactical analysis of Starbase Charlie, the situation. The consensus crew was waylaid due to retreat from a photonic entity which trapped the systemcrew in a holographic World War II Earth simulation. After finding the Yeager smashed into the pieces the survivors were rescued and the remaining ships returned to [[Starbase Alpha]]
===240809.13===
While searching for a new Commanding Officer to fill the gap of the now resigned Captain Elisa Godard, [[Dys, Gloria|Commander Gloria Dys]] was installed as Acting Captain. [[Ander, Lee|Lieutenant Commander Lee Ander]] was made Acting First Officer, promoted from CMO.

This mission was to test a whole new crew. Most officers, and even enlisted were transferred and replaced. [[Elswin, Brett|Lieutenant Brett Elswin]], Lieutenant Seth Harting, [[Korbel, Julio|Ensign Julio Korbel]],[[Wood, Misty|Lieutenant Commander Misty Wood]], [[Brackett, Lideah|Two away teams lead by Lieutenant Commander Lideah Brackett]], Lee Ander and [[Fields, Jane|Lieutenant (Junior Grade) Jane Fields]] replaced are sent to individual potential-dilithium mining sites.

A Klingon space station is The Away Teams found in the Vigo system. The Science department makes the deduction that the Klingons have been creating artificial wormholes, but have planet was not harnessed uninhabited as first thought. Both away teams came into contact with two separate species: the ability to effectively control them[[Nakai]] and [[Joran]]. SurprisinglyBoth species lived on their homeworld of [[Kryn'tor]], but the Klingon Base Commander Joran had made request for little contact with their technologically naïve counterparts the Copernicus’ helpNakai.

En route back to Starbase CharlieAfter receiving their new Commanding Officer, [[Stewart, Stovon|Captain Stovon Stewart]], the crew is waylaid due Copernicus along with the USS Drake rushed to aid emergency evacuations and rescue operation from a photonic entity colony on the planet [[Tekna]], which traps had erupted in devastating tectonic activity that was ripping the planet apart. The ships first made a detour to the Troligan Waystation to gather other civilian ships to aid in the evacuation of the plant's population. [[Dys, Gloria|Commander Dys]], now first officer, led an advanced party to Tekna in the runabout Pegasus. Undefended, the Pegasus was attacked by two Cardassian ships and boarded. USS Dauntless arrived on the scene, also en route to help with the Tekna situation, and picked up the Pegasus distress signal, rescuing the runabout crew in a holographic World War II Earth simulationbut not before one Security fatality.
The Dauntless now arrived to aid the Copernicus. The two sjips proceeded to help the colonists of Tekna with what could only be described as ‘fire lizards’ that were terrorizing the planet, emerging out of huge fissures in the earth. All efforts to evacuate the planet were cut short when the planet entered into a catastrophic meltdown and the surface opened up in flame and swallowed what was left of the colonies. The planet surface then returned to normal but with all traces of the colonies erased. Commander Dys requested for Star Fleet to put the planet under quarantine after the Science department theorized it to be a sentient planet, reacting to the mining operation from the colonists with the violent tectonic activity, and effectively purging itself of the alien presence. Though some colonists were evacuated from the planet, millions died and the operation was a great tragedy.

===20809The Copernicus is assigned to research an unexplored system, Gamma Cephei. The mission began well, and initial scans met with interesting results. Before any real information could be gathered, a fleetwide emergency was declared and the Copernicus was diverted to [[Tellar]]. Temporal anomalies were plaguing key Federation homeworlds, to the extent that when the Copernicus arrived on the scene they could no longer recognize them.13===
While searching for a new first officer to fill the gap of the now resigned Captain Elisa Godard, The [[Dys, Gloria|Commander Gloria DysTerran Empire]] had taken place of Star Fleet and the Copernicus engaged in verbal negotiations with the Empire while two ships - the Tallahassee and Poseidon, modulated subspace beams to close the temporal anomaly and restore the situation - with all returning to normal after the rift was installed as Acting Captainclosed. [[AnderLater is was found that the temporal anomaly was exploited by a species called the Grath from a alternate universe, Lee|Lieutenant Commander Lee Ander]] is made Acting First Officer at and they were using this timeto enter our timeline with hostile intentions.
A new M-Class world believed The ship continued its journey to be uninhabited becomes Gamma Cephei. An away team was beamed down to collect samples. Unexpectedly natives were encountered on the Copernicus’ new mission targetplanet, but with no sensor readings showing sentient life. This planet lays within The away team discovered that the natives were humans who had put aside their advanced technology in the borderlands between Federation to live a simple life from several generations earlier. The natives kidnapped [[Brooks, Daniel|Lieutenant Commander Daniel Brooks]] and Romulan space[[St. A outpost or large installment on Vrain, Elspeth|Lieutenant Elspeth Saint Vrain]], who were held captives for a short time before rescue. After that the crew decided to leave the planet could not only mean potential protection from future incursion, but also access and the humans to large swaths of dilithium and latnium deposits as confirmed by the USS Cooklifestyle they had chosen.
Two away teams lead by Lieutenant Commander Lee Ander and [[Fields, Jane|Lieutenant Jane Fields]] are sent to individual potential-dilithium mining sites. Soon after their dispatchment, the Copernicus had begun to run into targeting troubles. Unable to get a lock or sensor reading the away team let alone the entire planet the mother-vessel was left helpless to assist===241010. 04===
MeanwhileCaptain Stewart resigned his commission, the Away Teams found that the planet was not uninhabited as first thought. Both away teams come into contact with two separate species: the [[Nakai]] and [[JoranHawk, Jaden|Commander Jaden Hawk]]took command. Both species lived on their homeworld of [[Kryn’torFields, Jane|Lieutenant Commander Jane Fields]]was promoted to Commander and First Officer, but the Joran had little contact with their technological naïve counterparts the Nakai. The away teams had planned to stay to initiate further communication with the natives but were forced due to pull out with the presence of a Romulan warbirdCommander Gloria Dys being kept at Star Base Alpha over temporal transgressions.
The Copernicus was assigned to explore the Typhon Expanse. Upon entering the Expanse, crew members reported seeing Romulans and officers in earlier forms of uniform from decades earlier. A thirty-year old Romulan Warbird attacked the vessel with boarding parties. Captain Hawk set the ship to self-destruct, and this made the Romulans retreat.
Next a battle ensued. Looking to be on the losing side, the Copernicus ejected its auxiliary warp core. In the midst of the battle the core explosion knocked the vessel out of the expanse and out of the temporal loop in which it was stuck. Apparently the warbird and apparitions were all from the past, stuck in the temporal anomaly.

The Copernicus engaged in verbal negotiations with the Empire while two ships--the Tallahassee and Poseidon modulated subspace beams to close the anomaly.  Captain Stewart decided to finish the mission, and the ship continued its journey to Gamma Cephei. An away team was beamed down to collect samples. Natives unbeknownst to the Copernicus’ sensors greeted the away team. The away team discovered that the natives were humans who had put aside their advanced technology to live a simple life several generations earlier. The natives kidnapped [[Brooks, Daniel|Lieutenant Commander Daniel Brooks]] and [[St. Vrain, Elspeth|Lieutenant Elspeth Saint Vrain]], who were only held captives for a short time before rescue.

[[Fields, Jane|Lieutenant Commander Jane Fields resides as first officer, due to Commander Gloria Dys being kept at Star Base Alpha. The Copernicus is assigned to explore the Typhon Expanse. Upon entering the Expanse, the ship underwent critical crew failure. Crewmembers reported seeing Romulans. This caused paranoia with some of the crew. Before they knew it, a thirty-year old Romulan Warbird attacked the vessel with boarding parties. Captain Hawk knew that they would take over the ship and set the ship to self-destruct. For an unknown reason this made the Romulans retreat.  When they returned next a battle ensued. Looking to be on the losing side, the Copernicus ejected its auxiliary warp core.

The Captain’s transporter pattern is lost during transport which tot the surface to make the first contact. The Terranovans deny any involvement, but the Captain (Jaden Hawk) was kidnapped and tortured by the Aquanoverrans, who shared the planet with the Terrannovans, and were largely displeased with the Federation’s arrival.
To avoid breaking the Prime Directive, the away teams were recalled after rescuing the Captain, and the Copernicus sent to Starbase Charlie.

However, top senior staff learn that the mission is the tracking aimed to track and detainment of detain a terrorist cell lead by former Star Fleet Officer: Thomas Shaw/Paul Vice.  The Copernicus approached the planet, hiding in a nearby nebula to mask their approach. At this time, the Admiral reveals his plan to several more officers, still keeping it tightly closed.  Captain Hawk, and Admiral Wueste beamed to the planet without adequate security in order to infiltrate the terrorist lab, where they found and acquired a bioweapon that the terrorists were working on. Concurrent to this, the Copernicus came under attack by the terrorist. [[Fields, Jane|Commander Jane Fields]] commanded the vessel and its defense. Suffering only moderate damage, the ship was able to defeat the terrorists, but at the price of letting the cell leader, Paul Vice, get away.   ===21212.17=== The USS Copernicus is sent to go find the USS Wright, which has become long overdue for check in with Star Fleet Command. The vessel founds the USS Wright caught in an asteroid belt with no possible way of escaping under its own systems. Commander Hawk ordered a complete evacuation of the ship after finally coming into contact with the derelict vessels CO, Captain McDowell. During the evacuation, the Copernicus science team discovered several asteroids around the Wright and Copernicus were holographically disguised shard ships. Setting the self-destruct on on the Engineering section of the Wright. The rest of the crew escaped on the vessel’s saucer section. The self-destruct was in hopes of destroying the shard ships, but only ended up making the vessels retreat. The Copernicus was able to tow the Wright’s saucer section back to Starbase Alpha.  
The Copernicus approached the planet, hiding in a nearby nebula to mask their approach. Captain Hawk and Admiral Wueste beamed to the planet without security (much to the objection of the First Officer and other department heads) in order to infiltrate the terrorist lab. There they found a bioweapon that the terrorists were working on. Concurrent to this, the Copernicus came under attack by the terrorists. [[Fields, Jane|Commander Jane Fields]] commanded the vessel and its defence. Suffering only moderate damage, the ship was able to defeat the terrorists. On the planet.

After a twoHawk ordered self-month long journey, destruct to be set on the ships arrives at Engineering section of the Zaniah system. The unknown system ended up as a prize, containing an advanced civilization on its third planet. Much Wright to destroy the crew’s surpriseshards, while the planet contacted them. As if prophesied, the President rest of the planet knew Wright crew escaped on the nameship’s saucer section. First Officer, and class of Commander Fields, strongly objected to this hostile action against the ship shards, as well as her Captain’s namethey had not initiated any aggression and were apparently simply observing. From initial thoughtsHawk ignored the objection and went ahead, but the crew suspects previous Federation intervention on self-destruct did not destroy the planetshard ships and they simply retreated. As thought, scans confirmed their worries finding extensive Federation power signatures across The Copernicus was able to tow the planetWright’s saucer section back to Starbase Alpha.
Upon transport to the planet, the away team found themselves at a rather nice banquet, although protected by heavily armed guard. The away team found that not all of the planet’s populace was as welcoming to their visit as the Planetary President was. However, at that moment all was for not; after a bright flash engulfed the planet, the Away Team could not contact the USS Copernicus for in fact the ship was not there. The away team deduced that the planet was facing some sort of temporal displacement===241407.25===
In orbitUnder [[Fields, Jane|Captain Jane Fields]] as the Copernicus encountered Commanding Officer, after a much earlier version of two-month long journey, the planet, with ship arrived at the technological advancements of around 20th Century Earthunexplored Zaniah system. In The third planet contained an effort to establish communication with the away teamadvanced civilization, and inexplicably the FO, [[Roland, Mick|Commander Mick Rolland]] sent the shuttle Xenon to investigateplanet contacted them using Federation protocols. The shuttle came under attack by Zaniah fighters, but President of the planet knew the crew was transported back to name and class of the Copernicus letting as well as her Captain’s name, and claimed that their ancient prophecies had predicted their arrival. Scans found Federation power signatures across the shuttle descend into planet and it seemed as if there had been extensive influence by the atmosphereFederation on their society and technology.
On ZaniahThe Captain led a team to the planet to uncover the mystery. A state banquet was laid on for their arrival, the although protected by armed guards. The away team investigated found that not all of the planet’s populace was as welcoming as the ‘prophecy’ of their occurrence planetary President, and some military personnel seemed openly hostile and found sceptical about the shuttle Xenon in 'prophecy' coming true. The crew had indeed landed amid a political situation and one of their historical museums. Using this the away team found generals initiated a temporal device located inside coup on the president at the planetbanquet. Before the away The team could take measures were forced to stop flee with the President, not before an officer was killed. A bright flash engulfed the machineplanet, rebels against and the current government attackednatives continued as if nothing was unusual, forcing them to retreat back to but the Away Team could not contact the USS Copernicus and Starbase Alphaindeed it was no longer reading as in orbit. The away team deduced that the planet was facing some sort of temporal displacement.
In orbit, the Copernicus now saw a much earlier version of the planet, with the technological advancements of around 20th Century Earth. In an effort to establish communication with the away team, the FO, [[Roland, Mick|Commander Mick Rolland]] sent the shuttle Xenon to investigate. The shuttle came under attack by Zaniah fighters, but the crew was transported back to the Copernicus letting the shuttle descend into the atmosphere.
On Zaniah, the away team investigated the ‘prophecy’ of their occurrence and found their own shuttle Xenon in one of the historical museums - being the lost shuttle the Copernicus had sent to actually rescue the team. It was evidently aged by time but still functional, and they used the sensors on the shuttle to locate a temporal device below them inside the planet. The Copernicus had picked up the same power signature and chroniton emissions, and sent another team to investigate the device. It was not of native construction, but matched Devidian designs, and in a state of disrepair and malfunctioning, causing the temporal jumps through an unfortunate interaction between it and unusual emissions from the local star. The team were able to repair the machine. This caused another temporal flash, but one that restored the timeline on the planet so that the Copernicus was able to beam everyone out including the planetary President who was now in need of protection. Captain Fields negotiated a settlement between the rebels and the President, and was able to convince the former by beaming the rebels to the ship - showing that the crew were in fact who they claimed to be, from the Federation and not some 'actors' working for the President. The time machine was now reading as dormant and had clearly now broken permanently, so the planetary time shifting was at an end.
