USS Ampere

USS AMPERE

Union Explorer – Survey Vessel named after a French Terran Scientist (Pre Astro)

The USS Ampere is a lightly armed Beagle Class 500 meter Explorer.

Manufactured by DeNoir Ship Yards at Ross 128 Torus in 4899. It was further specialized and equipped at New Wurgus with the strongest shields possible. Almost 60 percent of Vessel Volume is dedicated to the shield systems. The Ampere and her 14 sister ships serve as Science and transport vessels assigned to Galaxy Core Station and part of the Wurgus initiated Galaxy Core research project.

The Ampere has the distinct honor to reach closer to the center of the M-0 Galaxy than other Union Vessel (or any other known Vessel) and collected data and took matter and energy samples.

(Even to the science of the 51st century, the conditions and the exact make up of the Galaxy Core is a mystery. )

The Ampere reached within 100 light years of the actual core and the shields were severely strained.
