Field Trip is a level 74 Federation mission in Star Trek Fleet Command in which you help the Baelosians test a new weapon prototype. It is picked up in Ceorvia at warp 3,000 but needs warp 3,500 to complete, because the testing site is in Sodonus. The heart of the mission is three test fights, against an Explorer, an Interceptor and a Battleship, each around 19 trillion strength. There is no donation. The reward is 738,000 Σ-Parsteel, 2,377,000 Latinum and 1,500 Σ-Federation Credits. It has more named fights than any other level 74 single mission, and it pays well for them.
Field Trip objectives
There are six objectives and no choice split:
- Install the Baelosian prototype on your ship. Location: Ceorvia.
- Travel to the testing site. Location: Sodonus.
- Test the Baelosian weapons against an Explorer. Location: Sodonus (enemy strength about 18.6 trillion).
- Test the Baelosian weapons against an Interceptor. Location: Sodonus (enemy strength about 19.0 trillion).
- Test the Baelosian weapons against a Battleship. Location: Sodonus (enemy strength about 19.2 trillion).
- Report back to the Baelosians on Yineriu. Location: Ceorvia.
You fit the prototype in Ceorvia and take it to Sodonus, where the three test targets get slightly tougher each time. The mission ends with a report to the Baelosians on Yineriu, back in Ceorvia.
Wo und welcher Warp
The pickup system is Ceorvia. The two warp numbers differ here: warp 3,000 to start and warp 3,500 to complete. The extra range is for Sodonus, so check that the ship you send can reach 3,500 before you install the prototype. The recommended level is 74.

Level 74 Federation missions compared
| Mission | Pickup | Warp to complete | Fights | Main rewards |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Field Trip | Ceorvia | 3,500 | 3 | 738,000 Σ-Parsteel, 2,377,000 Latinum, 1,500 Σ-Federation Credits |

| Refuge | Goviscia | 3,000 | 1 | 91,000 Σ-Tritanium, 80 15 Minute Σ-Repair Speed Ups, 900 Σ-Federation Credits |
The point changes are the same for all three. Field Trip is the only one that pays Σ-Parsteel and Latinum, and the only one that needs warp 3,500.
Tips
Treat it as a three-fight gauntlet in one system. The targets are close in strength, so a ship that beats the Explorer will beat the other two, but you will take damage across all three before you can go home.
Lost Comms also takes place in Ceorvia, so you can finish its steps while you are there for Field Trip. The Latinum here matches the total Latinum across the five-part Fracture chain at the same level.
Reputation moves toward the Federation and costs 22.8 billion Klingon Points. See Fraktionsruf und die Föderation page. The Σ resources page covers Σ-Parsteel, and the mission guide lists the other level 74 missions.
