Yonada
Yonada was a multi-generational worldship that was built in the distant past by the Fabrini when they realized that their home sun would enter a nova phase and destroy all life on their planet. Yonada was constructed out of a hollowed-out asteroid and was sent on a computer-controlled course to a habitable colony world. In 2269, the USS Enterprise encountered the worldship when it was fired upon by the automated defense systems of the Yonada.
The "surface" of Yonada
The Enterprise crew discovered that Yonada was on a collision course with the populated planet Daran V. The inhabitants of Yonada had been in space for so long that they forgot that they were on a ship. They called the ship's computer the "Oracle" and had built a sophisticated religion around it and its purpose to bring them to "the new world." The Enterprise crew helped Natira, the leader of the Yonada colonists, to understand that their world was a ship, and corrected the worldship's course to its intended destination.
