What We Lost is a level 56 mission in Star Trek Fleet Command where Ad’otha takes you to two former Klingon Science Group test sites to show you what K’ulass has done. It starts at warp 1 and needs warp 285 to complete, with stops in Scanlon and Nalla. There are two objectives and no fights. The reward is 16.2 million Tritanium, 80 3 Hour Speed Ups and Klingon reputation, and it unlocks The Heart of Science. It is a quick story step with a solid Tritanium payout.
What We Lost objectives
Ad’otha warns you that K’ulass will do anything to advance the Klingon race, and asks you to follow and see his true nature for yourself. There is no choice split:
The first site is a barren world with radiation in its soil. Ad’otha explains that it was the Klingon Science Group’s first official project, a nuclear powered biodiversity sphere whose prototype melted down after safety measures were skipped.
The second planet has life signs but only one species left. K’ulass spliced these animals with Tribble DNA to make a self-replicating food source, and they became an invasive predator that stripped the planet of everything else. He then abandoned them. The mission ends with Ad’otha asking you to stop Project Qui’Tu.
Where and what warp
No pickup system is listed, and the mission starts at warp 1. You need warp 285 to complete it, because both objectives are out in Scanlon and Nalla. The recommended level is 56.
Since neither objective is a fight, warp range is the only real requirement. A ship that can make the trip to Nalla can finish the mission.

What We Lost and The Heart of Science compared
The two missions sit next to each other in the story, and the next one asks for a longer trip.
| Mission | Recommended level | Warp to complete | Story |
|---|---|---|---|
| What We Lost | 56 | 285 | Accompany Ad’otha to former test sites. |
| The Heart of Science | 56 | 320 | Decide the course of the KSG. |
Ad’otha’s plea to end Project Qui’Tu leads straight into The Heart of Science, where the direction of the Klingon Science Group is decided.
Tips
Any ship with the range will do. There is nothing to fight and nothing to donate, so you can send a survey or mining hull if that is what has the warp.
The 80 3 Hour Speed Ups come to 240 hours of build or research time, a useful extra on top of the Tritanium.
Watch your Romulan standing. The mission adds 2,900,000 Klingon Points but takes away 5,846,400 Romulan Points, so the Romulan loss is about twice the Klingon gain. The faction reputation page explains the tiers. Other missions at this level are on the mission guide.
