Not really.The plaque for the Leondegrance (a John Eaves design that is woefully anachronistic for the time period in which it was built) also says that the ship was on a five year mission to the Lesser Magellanic Cloud, which is utter nonsense.
It could have been on a mission there as part of some sort of exchange with the Kelvan's.
You know, the people who were capable of altering the Enterprises engines so they could make the Trip to the Andromeda galaxy in 300 years.
