The starting sim date is 58806.27. The ship has just been certified ready and Ops Chief Lektar is on board  to welcome newcomers and hand out quarters and duty assignments.

On the morning of 58806.28 the XO came aboard and was greeted by Lektar.

The ship launches on 58807.11 for its shakedown flight, giving the crew two weeks to come on board and get settled. So any posts with new crew coming aboard should be dated between those two dates. Anyone needing help with stardates check the main site under Other or Rules and Guidelines area of the forum, or ask for help.

Please check other posts on the Forum to be sure your arrival date doesn't conflict with another post.
