The '''Defiant''' is a battle cruiser{{book ref|sky1|1}} and the biggest spaceship in a small, independent, nomad fleet of humans, that crashed on [[Detritus]] after being attacked by the [[Krell]].{{book ref|sky1|45}} It is said to be larger than Igneous Cavern.{{book ref|sky1|1}}
== Fleet ==
The people of the ''Defiant's'' fleet formed seperate colonies on Detritus after the ships crashed, until they were unified during the [[Battle of Alta]].{{book ref|sky1|1}} Different populations from the ''Defiant's'' fleet settled in different caverns with the marines colonizing Vici Cavern{{book ref|sky1|8}} and the crew from the Antioch settling in [[Bountiful Cavern]].{{book ref|sky1|7}} The modern populations in these branch caverns have lifestyles that are distinct from that of the population of Igneous - these differences may extend back to the original groups aboard the ''Defiant''.
Some technology, such as light-lines, survived the crash and were passed down through the generations.{{book ref|sky1|3}} Schematics of starships also survived the ships destruction.{{book ref|sky1|6}}
== Trivia ==
*Descendants of the engineers are known as the Motorskaps, based off the old words for engine crew.{{book ref|sky1|1}} It is unknown if the original engine crew of the Defiant were also known by this name.
