All posts for the day June 7th, 2024

Welcome to the official website of the USS Excalibur NCC-26517. The USS Excalibur is a correspondence chapter of STARFLEET TASK FORCE 31, based out of Portsmouth, Rhode Island.

As a correspondence chapter, we are quite free in our capabilities to support our community, but that comes at a cost of direct contact with each other. However, by serving as a correspondence chapter, we are proud to have members from several states. At present, we have members from the US states of South Carolina, North Carolina, Florida and Rhode Island. Several members have performed hundreds if not thousands of hours of community service collectively each year. Feel free to have a look around, and again welcome to the USS Excalibur!

In the more realistic world, we are a correspondence chapter.  This means that we do not officially meet in person.  All chapter business is held through correspondence, generally by email.  We are presently assigned to the Rhode Island sector of Task Force 31 Sector Fifteen.  The majority of our members participate as regular Fleet while others participate in the Task Force 31 MACOs.

As a member of Task Force 31, you may contact the ship’s captain through the contact form in the “Contact Us” page. The captain will provide you with instructions on how to join Task Force 31 and the USS Excalibur. You may also join Task Force 31 by using the link to the right which will provide you with information on how to join Task Force 31. At any rate, we would love to have you aboard. Please continue reading to learn more about the USS Excalibur.

The USS Excalibur is registered under the vessel registry NCC-26517 as an Ambassador-Class Exploratory Cruiser. As an exploratory cruiser, our assignment is to continue the mission of exploring strange new worlds and seeking out new life. As such, we participate primarily in deep space exploration, first contact missions and charting. It is our mission to go where no starship has been before and bring that information back to Starfleet Command.

We are always looking for new and exciting things to do as a chapter of Task Force 31, so please contact us if you would like more information about how to join the USS Excalibur or Task Force 31.
