USS Almagest
The USS Almagest (NCC-91870) was a Sutherland-class Federation starship in service to Starfleet during the early 25th century.
In 2401, the Almagest joined a Starfleet armada assembled to confront an unknown Borg ship that emerged from a spatial anomaly. The ship was briefly compromised when the Borg Queen began assimilating the USS Stargazer and obtained its command codes. After an understanding was reached with the Queen, the Almagest joined the Borg in a coordinated effort to deflect a massive energy burst from a newly forming transwarp conduit.

Part of the Borg-controlled fleet
Later that year, the Almagest participated in Frontier Day celebrations near Sol Station. Along with the rest of the fleet, it was seized by the Borg Collective after its younger crew were assimilated by a Borg signal transmitted via Jack Crusher. (PIC: "Vox")
The name and registry of this ship was first provided by Dave Blass, [1](X) who reaffirmed it for the "Võx" episode. [2]
The ship was presumably named for the Almagest, a 2nd century astronomical treatise.
