In reality, the U.S.S. Dauntless is not a Federation ship at all, but a clever forgery by an alien named Arturis, using particle synthesis (similar to Holograms). Hoping to have revenge against Captain Janeway and her crew for aiding the Borg in their battle against Species 8472 (in which his homeworld and people were assimilated), he forges a message from Starfleet to contain coordinates to the U.S.S.

Janeway and Tuvok remain suspicious however, and soon discover that in the original message there were no references to the U.S.S. Dauntless at all, and a flaw in the particle synthesis technology reveals alien technology during a search of Dauntless's engineering. Arturis kidnaps Janeway and Seven of Nine and reverts the ship back to its normal form, and sets a destination to Borg space as a final act of revenge. However, his plan fails when Voyager comes to the rescue, saving Janeway and Seven and leaving him to his fate with the Borg.
