The USS Telesto was a 24th century Federation starship operated by Starfleet.
Upon graduating from Starfleet Academy in 2369, Vivian Martin was assigned to the USS Telesto, where she served until the starship's destruction in the Second Battle of Chin’Toka in 2375.
In 2372, the Klingon Empire dissolved the Federation/Klingon Grand Alliance. At the end of the Klingon Chancellor Gowron’s time limit to withdraw from the Archanis sector, Klingon fleets pushed into the region, and the USS Telesto and another starship found themselves caught between two Klingon battlecruisers while gathering the members of an expedition on Goetia. During the battle, Vivian Martin was injured and her roommate was killed by Klingon warriors who had beamed into their quarters while they were scrambling to don their uniforms. Martin has little memory of the event save for suffering a stab wound from the Klingon’s bat’leth, and the panicked screams of Zayah as her vision faded to blackness.
During the ceasefire in 2373, the Telesto remained to assist with recovery efforts in the devastated regions of the Archanis Sector and assist Federation medical teams with various diseases which afflicted survivor groups. While assisting in the recovery efforts, Vivian Martin published a paper based off of this work titled “An Analysis of Epidemics Considering Interstellar Warfare as a Vector of Transmission”. This paper would lead to several others which began to spread into the realms of bioterrorism and viral warfare, especially in regards to possible solutions to the Fermi paradox, which would earn her attention steadily closer to the limelight in biological fields.
During the Dominion War, the Telesto only participated in minor engagements and skirmishes during the war until the Second Battle of Chin’Toka in 2375. Within minutes of the opening engagement, the Telesto became one of the 311 other allied starships to be mercilessly destroyed by the newly revealed Breen forces. The Telesto’s commanding officer did not survive, but Vivian Martin was one of the fortunate few to get to the escape pods in time.
(It is not been revealed what class of starship the USS Telesto was, but since it spent much of the Dominion War in rear echelon duties it was likely an older starship such as a Centaur, Constellation, Miranda, or Rigel class.)
