Designed for short-term missions of science and exploration. Features advanced sensor arrays.

The Nova Class starship is a tier two ship. It requires 75 Schematics to produce.

The most prominent Nova-class starship is the U.S.S. Equinox NCC-72381, commanded by Captain Rudy Ransom. It was discovered stranded in the Delta Quadrant by U.S.S. Voyager in 2375. (See Star Trek: Voyager episode "Equinox" (5x26).)

With 50 schematics available as a reward for choosing the Section 31 faction in Episode 5 - Ethical Alternatives, and with multiple missions that offer Nova class Schematics as a rare reward , the Nova class is probably the most accessible Tier 2 starship in the game that players can earn without requiring dilithium to purchase.

The elite level of Mission 1: Family Squabble of Episode 3 - From On High can drop 3x Nova Class Schematic. This is the mission with the highest potential schematic-to-chroniton ratio (0.25) for standard reward Nova Class Schematics in the game.

In addition to two Battle stations slots for crew, the Nova Class has two built-in Battle Action powers:
