Revision as of 04:59, 21 November 2014

The SS Mariposa (NAR-7678) was a 22nd century DY-500 class colony ship, from Earth, owned by OCC. The vessel took its name from the Spanish word meaning butterfly. The Mariposa was of UN registry. The ship was loaded and launched from Earth's Baikonur Cosmodrome on November 27, 2123. Gross vehicle mass was 3,000 metric tons.

Mission

At the time of launch, the Mariposa was transporting two groups of settlers on a colonization expedition to the Ficus sector, a destination that was not made entirely clear, at least according to Starfleet Research during the 24th century. The first group of settlers were Irish Neo-Transcendentalists, who set up a low-tech colony on the planet Bringloid V. The second group was a collection of technology savvy scientists, destined for the planet Mariposa, located half a light year away from Bringloid V.

Bringloid V was successfully colonized first, but when the Mariposa began its planetary descent to the planet Mariposa, the ship's hull was breached and only five of the original colonists survived. The survivors used cloning to build the society of the Mariposa colony. Both colonies were forgotten on Earth, as no missions were recorded in or near the Ficus Sector at the time. Over two centuries later, in 2365, Bringloid V sent out an SOS and both colonies were found. (TNG: "Up The Long Ladder")

-As ''Mariposa'' was the name of both the ship and the final destination planet. It is not clear which was named after the other. The captain of the ship was stated to be one of the colonists to planet Mariposa.
+The name of the first officer and chief engineer were derived from this okudagram that appeared in ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Continuing Mission]]''.
-The SOS was used by the [[European Hegemony]]. It is possible that only the Irish colonists were affiliated with this alliance.
-There is a discrepancy between dialog and the [[okudagram]]. Picard orders up a list of all "Earth deep-space launches from 2123 to 2190 with the destination in or near the Ficus sector" and sees no launches to Ficus. The okudagram in contradiction reads seven launches to Ficus sector from that time period. Even the ''Mariposa'' is listed as one of two colony ships.
-Legible versions of the okudagrams referenced here appear in ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation - The Continuing Mission]]''.
