The Iscandar interstellar communication spacecraft Scheherazade, code-named Amaterasu by the United Nations Cosmo Navy, was an Iscandar interstellar spacecraft for intergalactic travel.
History[]
In 2199, the Scheherazade carried Sasha Iscandar to Earth so that she could give the Earthlings the Wave-motion Core, a central component in the Wave-motion Engine. The ship was supposed to meet with two UNCN operatives on Mars, however, the hull was damaged when it entered the red planet's atmosphere, and Sasha lost her life in the process. The message capsule was safely retrieved, but Scheherezade exploded while landing.[2]
Notes[]
- Scheherazade is named after the eponymous protagonist of One Thousand and One Nights.
