USS Dauntless (NCC-80210)

The USS Dauntless (NCC-80210) is an Intrepid-class Federation starship in service during the 24th century.

The Dauntless was commissioned in July 2379. Commander Aaron Wright took temporary command until the Dauntless was assigned to the Kursican sector in April 2380. At that time Captain Leza Astar, a joined Trill, took command from Starbase 535.

Her first captain was Leland Bell. Dauntless joined the Seventh Fleet in that year. She was involved with several skirmishes with Romulan warbirds, and held her position until Starfleet ships could come to her aid. This action earned her a Unit Citation.

Dauntless was nicknamed the "Seeing Eye." Captain Bell retired in 2372 and Robert Wright became commanding officer.

During the Dominion War Dauntless fought at the Battle of Tyris, the Second Battle of Deep Space Nine, the Battle of Goralis and the Operation Final Assault.

At Tyris she earned her second Unit Citation and battle honours by assisting the USS Lionheart rescue some heavily damaged Akira class vessels from Cardassian attack. Dauntless earned her third and final Unit Citation in the Battle of Cardassia Prime.

After the war she was assigned to the Maelstrom to study the Vesuvi cloud. The star of Vesuvi erupted, killing Captain Wright. The Dauntless' executive officer assumed command.

Sometime thereafter, the Dauntless fought against a Cardassian rebellion and her captain and crew were assigned to the USS Sovereign. During the rebellion she was heavily damaged and was evacuated before her hull collapsed.
