USS Venture (Galaxy-class)

The USS Venture (NCC-71854) was a 24th century Federation Galaxy-class starship operated by Starfleet. Its captain was a friend of Benjamin Sisko.
In 2372, the Venture led a task force under the command of Admiral Hastur to reinforce Deep Space 9 when it was threatened by a Klingon attack. Sisko offered to talk to the captain of the Venture to secure Worf a position aboard, although Worf preferred to stay on Deep Space 9. (DS9: "The Way of the Warrior")
The Venture visited DS9 again in 2373. (DS9: "Doctor Bashir, I Presume")
In 2374, the Venture participated in Operation Return, protecting the flank of the USS Defiant. The Venture was one of the first ships to arrive at Deep Space 9 after the Dominion retreat. (DS9: "Sacrifice of Angels")
The Venture saw action again later that year when it fought as part of the Federation Alliance fleet that invaded the Chin'toka system. (DS9: "Tears of the Prophets")
