Summary

• Star Trek: Picard season 3 introduces the Fleet Museum, featuring the USS Wersching, a starship named after the late Borg Queen actress Annie Wersching.
• Annie Wersching played the Borg Queen in Star Trek: Picard season 2, and her portrayal was well-received by fans. Her death at the age of 45 was a tragedy.
• The USS Wersching joins other iconic Star Trek ships at the Fleet Museum, and its inclusion is a heartfelt gesture that honors Annie Wersching's legacy as the Borg Queen.

Star Trek: Picard season 3 introduced the Fleet Museum, and one of the starships on display is an Easter egg that honors the late Annie Wersching, who played the Borg Queen in Star Trek: Picard season 2. The original Borg Queen actress, Alice Krige, returned in Star Trek: Picard season 3 to voice her iconic cybernetic villain, although the Queen was played on set by Jane Edwina Seymour. Tragically, Wersching passed away from cancer in January 2023, just a few weeks before the premiere of Star Trek: Picard season 3.
On Twitter/X, Star Trek: Picard production designer Dave Blass shared a "brochure" of the Fleet Museum and the various starships on display curated by Commodore Geordi La Forge (LeVar Burton). Blass is proud to unveil a "special treat," the USS Wersching, "a very, very special ship" named for the late Borg Queen actress who was beloved by the cast and crew of Star Trek: Picard.

Naming an Akira Class starship the USS Wersching and giving it a place of honor in Star Trek: Picard season 3's Fleet Museum is a lovely gesture towards Annie Wersching. Her loss was deeply felt by the cast and crew of Star Trek: Picard as well as by her fans.
The USS Wersching joins several famous (and infamous) Star Trek ships at the Fleet Museum, including the USS Enterprise-D, the USS Enterprise-A, the NX-01 Enterprise, the USS Defiant, the USS Voyager, and even the Klingon flagship Kronos One, and a Romulan Bird-of-Prey.
