Background[]

Apocrypha[]

The Ship Recognition Manual, Volume 1: The Ships of Starfleet, published by Last Unicorn Games after losing their Star Trek license, classifies the Andromeda-class as an explorer which entered service in 2362. The sourcebook also lists the USS Kalvos (NCC-68924) as being a ship of this class.
