Brief History
The USS Jacinta was commissioned in June 2379 at Utopia Planetia Shipyard in orbit around Mars. The Jacinta was placed under the command of Captain Tiroll who took the ship out on it's shakedown cruise. The Jacinta's shakedown cruise didn't get off to a good start as the ship lost warp power just two after leaving drydock thanks to a a fault in it's warp core. This set back forced the Jacinta to limp back to drydock where it was laid up for 2 months as it's warp core was rebuilt from the ground up. Following the rebuild of it's core, the Jacinta was put through it paces by the review team at Utopia who conducted extensive tests on the rebuilt drive that lasted close to a month, before the team approved the Jacinta as once again being space worthy. Captain Tiroll took the Jacinta out on it's second shakedown cruise which the Jacinta completed without any further difficulties.
With it's shakedown and engine problems behind the Jacinta was assigned to the Seventh Fleet where it filled the role of a scout & patrol vessel. The Jacinta served in this role for several months as it often patrolled the Breen Border with the rest of the Seventh Fleet's Task Force 8. After it's tour with the Seventh Fleet the Jacinta was reassigned to one of Starfleet's scientific divisions where the Jacinta was used to chart nebulas inside Federation space. The Jacinta continued to serve Starfleet in a scientific capacity until December 2380 when it docked at Deep Space 12 to tkae on supplies for a charting mission in the Gamma Quadrant. At this time command of the Jacinta was transferred from Captain Tiroll to Commodore Kimberley Harper who had been tasked with commanding the Gamma Quadrant mission. After taking on it's supplies the Jacinta set off for the Bajoran Wormhole and crossed into the Gamma Quadrant.
The Jacinta spent five months in the Gamma Quadrant before it returned to Federation Space. Once back in Federation space the Jacinta returned to Earth for R&R and a resupply. Following it's resupply the Jacinta was reassigned to the Cardassian Border where it is assisting the Cardassian Government.
