Probert Station, Sol Sector

The USS Sunset Shimmer NCC-61613-A, the fourth Equestria Girl-class starship, launched from Probert Station under the command of Captain Inat’p (who was first officer of the original Sunset Shimmer NX-61613, under the command of Fleet Admiral Becky Ray Shoichet) after being christened with a bottle of fizzy apple cider at the launch ceremony (which also dedicated the ship to the posthumous Rainbooms). Her sister ship, the USS Enterprise-H, watches as she departs. The Sunset Shimmer is ordered to warp to Hysperia to escort the Hysperian King Andy Billups to Earth to meet with the Federation President.
