			== History ==
			The Minotaur was commissioned in 2371 with construction completed in 2372. However, during the initial testing phase, the ship encountered some minor difficulties with its engines, requiring additional repairs and adjustments. As a result, the Minotaur had to spend an additional six months in space dock to address these issues and ensure optimal performance.

			Finally, in 2373, after the necessary modifications and repairs were completed, the Minotaur underwent its final shakedown cruise. This comprehensive test and evaluation period allowed the crew to thoroughly assess the ship's systems, ensuring everything was functioning as intended and that the vessel was ready for active service.

			Following the successful shakedown cruise, the Minotaur was officially put into service and assigned its command crew. Under the leadership of Commander Torm Shol as the Commanding Officer and Lieutenant Commander Amber Cross as the Executive Officer, along with Operations Officer Gerhard "Pip" Kalbfleisch and Artificial Intelligence Ara Volans, the command crew took charge of the Minotaur and embarked on their mission to explore and investigate unexplained phenomena.
