USS Monitor (NCC-61826)

The USS Monitor (NCC-61826) was a Nebula-class Federation starship that was in service during the latter half of the 24th century.

In 2366, the Monitor was dispatched to the Romulan Neutral Zone in order to counter a possible Romulan sneak attack originating from a supposed cloaked Romulan base on Nelvana III. (TNG: "The Defector")

The following year, the Monitor patrolled the Romulan Neutral Zone, along with the USS Berlin. (TNG: "Brothers", et al.)

The Monitor was destroyed by a warp core breach in 2370.
