USS Accord (NCC-1842)

USS Accord (NCC-1842) is a Soyuz-class starship (Star Trek: Accord, Star Trek; Avenger) in service in the 23rd and 24th centuries.

Launched in October, 2256, along with other Soyuz-class starships, it would be lost nearly seven years later while on a classified mission. One of its command bases during this time was Starbase 25.

In April of 2292, the Accord, lost for 30 years, was found by the Federation-class dreadnought USS Konkordium. There was major damage to all systems, but the spaceframe remained intact. The logs made it clear that attacker "was a) more advanced (but not much) and b) no one [the Federation had] encountered before." Months later, Starfleet Intelligence deduces that the same civilization that attacked Accord had attacked the perimeter action ship USS Arauca in 2289.

Over 14 months later, after refit at Ohio Orbital Shipyards, the Accord began its alpha shakedown cruise. It is commissioned in the fall of 2293, with Captain Anbinder taking formal command of Accord. Accord is then launched for a "beta" shakedown cruise with all crew except its marine strike group.

In July, 2294, a contingent from the Accord, conveyed aboard its shuttle Hammarskjold, attended the funeral of a former shipmate (Star Trek: Avenger: "Belonging") at Starbase 29.

May, 2295: A wargames exercise between the fighter squadrons of Space Station Shadowstar, USS Lexington, USS Avenger, and the Accord is scheduled. Other ships, including USS Thagard, are to be present as observers. A task force of Tholian vessels attempts to attack the station, but is thwarted. The exercise is rescheduled to October.

June, 2295: Accord makes formal contact with ch'Rhailan, a colony of Romulan Unificationist refugees.

In 2296, two officers from the Accord traveled to Shadowstar Station for a ceremony (Star Trek: Shadowstar Station: "Pomp and Circumstantial Evidence").

An Accord officer from the 2290's or 2300's (prior to 2308) goes back in time to 1978 to prevent the assassination of Harvey Milk of San Francisco. The officer's shipmates pursue him and prevent him from interfering with the timeline (Star Trek: Shadowstar Station Timeline; Star Trek: Accord: "City on the Edge of California").
