The USS Ulysses (NCC-66808) was a 24th century Federation Nebula-class starship the command of Captain Entebe.
In 2371, the Ulysses conducted a mission to study protoplanetary masses in the Helaspont Nebula.
Shortly after stardate 48962, Captain Sisko suggested contacting the Ulysses to support the USS Defiant respond to a faked distress call from the Federation colony on Barisa Prime.
At the time, the Ulysses was the closest starship in the sector and was twenty hours away, at maximum warp. However, due to sabotage to the communications system by a changeling inflitrator, the Defiant was unable to request assistance. (DS9: "The Adversary")
Background

Star Trek: Deep Space Nine - The Fallen features a Miranda-class starship with the same name, in service in the 2360s. William Ross served on the ship as first officer. That ship was attacked by the Cardassians and crashed on an uninhabited planet, while investigating an Orb of the Pah-wraith.
