Namesake

There are several figures in Greco-Roman mythology with the name Pallas, the most notable of them being a companion of the Greek goddess Athena named Pallas who Athena accidentally slew and then took up as a name for herself, as Pallas Athena, and the youth Pallas, who was referenced in the Aeneid as a youth whose death spurs Aeneas on to kill Turnus. This vessel's namesake is the former, the goddess Athena, especially through the name of the dwarf planet 2 Pallas in the Sol System.

History

Built at Avalon Fleet Yards, Pallas was launched in 2401.
