Captain Shelby T. Hobbs




     Shelby T. Hobbs ll started out as Chief Security Officer aboard the USS BRIGHTSTAR. While onboard the BRIGHTSTAR, he would make his way over to the Science Division and becoming its Chief Science Officer. While as Chief Science Officer, he would redesign the BRIGHTSTAR's ship logo. He'd later present the new design to the rest of the crew at a ship at meeting. The crew liked it so well, that it was officially adopted as the new logo for the BRIGHTSTAR.
