Revision as of 16:27, 8 June 2024

Polaris Squadron is a multi-mission unit within Fourth Fleet Operations under the command of Fleet Admiral Allison Reyes (Director, Advanced Science, Technology and Research Activity) and Rear Admiral Alex Grayson (Commander, Archanis Sector Operations).

The flagship of Polaris Squadron is the USS Polaris, an Odyssey-class heavy explorer that hosts the Advanced Science, Technology and Research Activity, and the headquarters of Polaris Squadron is Archanis Station, a Canopus-class starbase from whence sector operations of the Archanis Sector are managed.

Mandate

Advanced Science, Technology and Research Activity

The Advanced Science, Technology and Research Activity (ASTRA) is a specialized, cross-functional unit intended to fuel Starfleet’s innovation engine through discovery, investigations and interactions on the frontier; additionally, it provides rapid response support for critical non-traditional events from biological threats to spacetime anomalies where its specialized compliment of scientists, engineers and analysts may be particularly suited. ASTRA's primary operations are based off the USS Polaris, and ASTRA also maintains facilities on the smaller USS Ingenuity for situations where the Polaris is otherwise occupied or less suited. Additionally, a fixed laboratory on Archanis Station provides support for long-term research activities.

Fleet Admiral Allison Reyes serves as the current Director of the Advanced, Science, Technology and Research Activity, which is then further divided into four research units:

Astrophysics and Exotic Sciences Unit
Unit Lead: Commander Luke Lockwood, Ph.D.
Research related to stellar and planetary phenomena, including astrophysics, subspace mechanics, temporal mechanics, stellar cartography, geochemistry, minerology, seismology, etc.
Medical and Biological Sciences Unit
Unit Lead: James Henderson, M.D., M.P.H.
Research related to humanoid and non-humanoid life, including ecology, biology, zoology, botany, etymology, medicine, anatomy, pathology, toxicology, bacteriology, etc.
Cultural and Psychological Research Unit
Unit Lead: Lieutenant Lisa Hall, Ph.D.
Research related to the development, culture and perspectives of alien species, including anthropology, archaeology, agronomy, psychology, negotiation, historiology, etc.
Technology and Engineering Research Unit
Unit Lead: Commander Cora Lee
Research related to Federation and foreign technologies, including propulsion, weapons, shields, sensors, communications, digital systems, synthetic lifeforms, etc.

Archanis Sector Operations Command

The Archanis Sector Operations Command is a logistics and support unit tasked with providing operational, diplomatic and engineering services to the Archanis Sector. The headquarters for sector operations is Archanis Station, a Canopus-class starbase in orbit of Gorion VII in the Meronia Cluster, and the USS Pacific Palisades provides a cruiser-scale mobile platform for the Corps of Engineers detachment.

Rear Admiral Alex Grayson serves as the current Commander of Archanis Sector Operations, which is then further subdivided into several units tasked with specific purposes as it relates to Starfleet's renewed investment in the sector:

Headquarters Command
Commander: Captain Elsie Drake
Responsible for logistical support and coordination of assets operating within the Archanis Sector.
Archanis Corps of Engineering Detachment
Commander: Commodore Amit Agarwal
Responsible for the sector revitalization and infrastructure build out within the Archanis Sector.
Archanis Diplomatic Mission
Charge d'affaires: Ambassador Michael Drake
Responsible for diplomatic affairs with colonies in the sector and with neighboring powers.
