The USS Boötes (NCC-67132) was a Zodiac-class Federation starship in service during the 24th century. The Boötes was a heavy participant in the Dominion War as part of the 219th Tactical Wing, Starfleet Eighth Fleet, spending the first two-thirds of the war defending Andoria and later often fought along the front lines. During the early part of 2374, the Boötes was commanded by Captain Avatha (Last Unicorn RPG: The Dominion War Sourcebook: The Fires of Armageddon). The Boötes was named for the constellation Boötes, which contains the star Arcturus.
