(Star Fleet Technical Manual) Arcturus was commissioned in 2282. It was often the testbed for developing sensor technologies. It had two different commanding officers before a refit ca. 2286.

n11:abstract

The USS Arcturus (NCC-1807) was a Constitution-class (Tikopai-subclass) heavy cruiser active in Federation Starfleet service during the 23rd and early 24th centuries. (Star Fleet Technical Manual) Arcturus was commissioned in 2282. It was often the testbed for developing sensor technologies. It had two different commanding officers before a refit ca. 2286. The reference to two different CO's is meant to reflect the existence of chapters named Arcturus in different Trek fan organizations ca. 1985. One --with the registry NCC-1985 -- was led by Dave Herrmann in Wisconsin (Starfleet Communiqué 10), the other by Myron Rumsey in upstate New York. Along with its sister ships, Darion and Vena, Arcturus obtained vast amounts of information about Klingon activities while under the guise of various scientific expeditions. (Ships of the Star Fleet, vol. 1 [revised]) Arcturus 's third commanding officer, a Captain Johnson (who had transferred from the dreadnought Ascension), was known for being a cautious and by-the-book commander. Johnson's executive officer, Artemis Ne'vah, was one of the rare Orions to attain command rank at the time. During a benchmarking run of sector 631516 in 2287, the ship underwent an unexplainable incident when it went missing for eighteen hours. Arcturus served as escort for a pair of transport/tugs in February 2288. (Star Trek: Avenger: "As Others See Us"). Later that year, it would conduct a historical survey in the Shish-ak-bab system. (Star Trek: Avenger: "Operations Log - USS Avenger") During Operation Blackjack, the commander of Arcturus in a parallel universe, Admiral Wilhelm Genser, nearly succeeded in assassinating Captain Johnson and other key senior officers. (Star Trek: Shadowstar Station: Operation Blackjack) Captain Johnson transferred to an administrative post at the end of Arcturus 's five-year mission and was succeeded by his exec, with the chief science officer, Lieutenant Commander Raab, moving up to the XO position. In 2293, Arcturus conveyed several diplomatic missions from their homeworlds near the Federation/Klingon border to the Khitomer Conference. (Star Trek: Shadowstar Station: "Journey to Camp Khitomer") For several years following that mission, Arcturus was on escort duty for settlers of the New Colonies in the Triangle. (Star Trek: Accord) During a refit in 2297, Arcturus was outfitted with large passive-sensor platforms attached to its secondary hull, along with a dedicated matter/antimatter reactor for additional systems. She was decommissioned in 2310. (Star Trek: Malverne: At Gamma Hydrae)
