As we enter the final month of the year, we’re pleased to announce that after a lot off work from it’s new lead, SFCQ2’s Director off Fleet Operations has given the green light to a new unit being formed under the leadership of returning member Boyd Halliwell.

Introducing the USS Artemis!

Revealed first on our primary members group, Facebook’s Starbase Europa, Admiral Mitchell introduced the fleet to the new ship and it’s Captain;

Attention All Hands, All Commands.
Priority Message from Director of Operations:
Gentlebeings: Ladies, Gentlemen and Others, Officers and Enlisted,
With a supremely competent support staff in post, it is a rare moment that requires DOPS to descend from the Top Floor, but there are some tasks that I reserve for myself: Tonight, I am pleased to have two pleasant duties to perform.
Most importantly, effective Stardate 74915.06 – 00 hours, December 1st in the old money – Lieutenant (JG) Boyd Halliwell is assigned as Commanding Officer, U.S.S.(P) Artemis, NX-79206. Upon accepting his assignment, Mr Halliwell is authorised to clear moorings and begin Shakedown Cruise.
Further, I have upon my desk a recommendation from the Commanding Officer of the Sovereign, recommending Mr Halliwell’s Immediate promotion in recognition of his dedication and hard work. Under normal circumstances I would say that getting your first command is reward enough, but this is 2020 – when rules are bent in creative ways. So congratulations, LIEUTENANT Halliwell, you are hereby elevated!
Now, Godspeed and Good Luck, we will watch your journey with interest.
DOPS Out.
Having a clear idea of his proposal soon after re-joining SFC, and working alongside Sovereign’s Piers Drinkall during his pilot scheme off the Command Training Program, we’re proud to see the planningg over the past few months take shape and become the home of SFC members in Liverpool, North Wales and beyond.

CREW TRANSFERS

Founding members that have joined in the building process have already began to transfer and should receive an official confirmation from Admin via email. Members that fall within the catchment of Artemis within Liverpool, North Wales and neighbouring areas will receive a formal invite to transfer by email.

If you’re in the catchment and want to transfer but haven’t received instructions, please either email Admin directly  or submit a transfer request through the Account Section of the Membership Hub.

If you’re not a member of SFC and wish to join the opportunity to take part in the new unit, you can sign up today! Visit our Enlistment page to find out more or join.

BOLDLY GO!

From all of us at the Admiralty Board and SFCQ2, we wish Boyd and his new team at Artemis the best of luck as the crew enter their shakedown cruise. We all look forward to watching the crew grow over the next six months towards their official confirmation!

Congratulations to all, and Godspeed!

Engaging 2025: A Fleet Survey!

Following a landmark year and a new drive to refresh fleet services starting with the website revamp to close the year, we're in constant review mode to make sure that our systems and services are working for everyone within Q2. Despite January seemingly lasting three times as long as normal this year, we've already had a great start with Tesla and Proxima heading into their first away missions of the year, and new opportunities arsing from a temporary change of command on the Churchill and two new members on board the new Fleet Support Group. So we want to make sure that with a great start to the year, we keep that momentum going! The past few years have been difficult from lockdowns to social changes and other things we wont get into! At times we've all felt a little […]

A Fistful of Connections

Connected universe on screen have been a bigger deal now more than ever before now that one of the most popular, the Marvel Cinematic Universe, has embraced Marvel's diverse history before it was it's own singular media empire. Shared universes have always been a bit of a cool thing to see on screen whether it was a subtle one such as Michael Keaton reprising his Jackie Brown role as Ray Nicollet in Out of Sight, to spin offs such as Frasier bringing in the old Cheers gang, there's a novelty to seeing the fictional worlds interconnect with each other from time to time.. For Star Trek's divergence to telling a story about another crew, the shared universe began with unsubtle hints that this was the same universe as Kirk's adventures with DeForest Kelly in aged make up as retired Admiral […]

[Q2&A] The Academy

It's become a thing of legend that Star Trek fans are the type of fans who like to know the details. All the details. It's a stereotype that's been enhanced by our own fandom. We had the Nitpickers Guide series. We had Technical manuals. We had fans writing to production staff to ask how transporters worked. In turn we had the infamous 'Get A Life' sketch and tributes to the fandoms from news pieces of people doing jury duty in uniform to shows like Futurama introducing the Star Trek church (in a rather affectionate nod!).

New Year, New Site!

After months of planning and a few mentions here and there, we're as surprised as anyone that after planning a newly refreshed site for 2025, we made it in time without anything going wrong! Reviewing 2024 we've been plotting, planning and organising in the background ahead of a huge push for 2025 to revive some administrative energy and while a new site may seem like it's last on (very long) a list of priories, a new look to match the energy we wanted to go into 2025 with was a big task to get the ball running.   On the front end, we've kept things roughly the same with only a few minor tweaks. Posts will still be split between two main sections. On Screen will be host to ongoing production news reviews, including the ongoing Retro Review feature and […]
