Yonada

• Generational ship dispatched from Fabrina to Lorina upon the discovery of the coming supernova of that world's primary (TOS: "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky"; TOS Novel: Ex Machina)
  • Departed c.8000 BCE upon invitation by the contemporary Shesshran civilization (TOS: "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky"; TOS Novel: Ex Machina; TNG Novel: The Buried Age)
  • Arrived 2270 (TOS: "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky"; TOS Novel: Ex Machina)
• Named for the Fabrini word for "hope" (TOS Novel: Ex Machina)
• Constructed from a hollowed-out asteroid shell approximately 325km in diameter around a spherical core 307km in diameter, held in place by supports camouflaged as tall mountains (TOS: "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky"; TOS Novel: Ex Machina)
  • Core constructed of asteroid collapsed on itself via shaped antimatter explosions and coated in a layer of diamond, resulting in a sphere with density nearing 400 g/cc, in order to provide artificial surface gravity of 0.86g, near-identical to gravity of Lorina (TOS Novel: Ex Machina)
  • Formerly directly inhabited, but by 2260s all Fabrini had relocated to below the surface (TOS: "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky"; TOS Novel: Ex Machina)
• Propelled by fission-based thrusters (TOS: "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky"; TOS Novel: Ex Machina)
• Malfunction in thrusters resulted in Yonada entering a collision course with Kachissat until returned to its proper course through uneasy cooperation with crew of USS Enterprise (TOS: "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky"; TOS Novel: Ex Machina)
  • Fabrini descendants were by then unaware of the status of Yonada as a vessel rather than a planet (TOS: "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky"; TOS Novel: Ex Machina)
  • By 2260s, under the control and governance of the Oracle (TOS: "For the World is Hollow and I Have Touched the Sky"; TOS Novel: Ex Machina)
