Name says it all. I've been doing some research into it for a project I'm working on and the closest I can come up with was that the name is derived from an old American minesweeper from the Second World War era (but later renamed "Specter"), former Israeli fighter pilot Yiftah Spector (which meshes with the USS Rabin), and various other people with the Russian derived surname of Spector (but I doubt Starfleet would name a ship after, say, a music producer accused of murder or of a semi-famous video game developer). Anyone have a clue as to the etymology of this ship's name or other possible origins of the name? Heck, could it have been misspelled and should either be "Specter" or "Spectre?"
