The Niger was a modified multirole interstellar craft stationed aboard the USS Endeavour.

Features
The Danube class Runabout was first requested in 2363. This vehicle was designed to accomplish four main missions; the ability to perform rapid response scientific expedition transportation, the ability to act as an orbital or landed temporary operations base for science missions, the ability to transport intact experiment and cargo modules, and the ability to perform tactical missions such as intelligence gathering, covert insertion/extraction of personnel, and disruption of threat activities where feasible.
The Danube features a front cabin for the crew of pilot, co-pilot/navigator and two mission specialists. A two person transporter is at the rear of the cabin, with swappable mission modules aft of this.
The Niger features a multi-mission module in the 'roll bar' that contains a prototype quantum subspace sensor package. Though by the time that the USS Theurgy encountered the Niger, this package was incomplete. It was designed to work in conjunction with the primary sensor suit located in the main hull to amplify the quantum subspace signature of quantum filaments, an astrophysical phenomenon that has proven quite hard to detect normally and quite dangerous to starships.
The Niger was also configured to operate as a science vessel, containing four science stations in the aft modular compartment. These were intended to be connected to the multi-mission pod to be used to configure the sensor package on the fly for the duration of the experiment. This however was not the case as the upgraded sensors were not completed so the science stations were left inactive.
The space craft also utilizes a modified version of the standard LCARS Operating System. Personally programmed by Marlee Hailey so that the Runabout could understand the new sensor information being fed to the LCARS. This actually required a rewrite of most of the sensor code since the original had trouble accounting for the inherent instabilities in the quantum realm. By the time the USS Theurgy encountered the Runabout, this recode was incomplete rendering most of the Niger's sensors useless. The only sensors working were the proximity detection system in the primary hull and part of the prototype quantum subspace sensors which allowed the crew to track warp trails.
Everything else about this craft is base-line standard for the Danube Class Runabout line of space craft.
