USS Oraidhe

The USS Oraidhe was a Federation starship, Galaxy-class, commanded by Captain. It was named for the mountain Oraidhe on Trill.

The Oraidhe was assigned to negotiate in a civil war on 11 Lacerti in 2369, followed by half a year of patrol duty on the edge of Federation space. She then spent six months en route home, only to be sent to join the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-D) and the USS Marignano in the Great Rift. There the entire crew's neural energies were "eaten" by the intellivore creature.

The Enterprise towed the vessel to Starbase 44, where she was later recommissioned with a new name and new crew was assigned. ( : Intellivore)
