*[Career Event] ''USS Europa'' responded to the distress call from ''USS Shenzhou'', in the incident later known as the [https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Battle_of_the_Binary_Stars Battle of the Binary Stars], which marked the beginning of the [https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Federation-Klingon_War_(2256-57) Federation-Klingon War of 2256-57].  Ananthi was assigned to ready the Admiral's shuttle for the possibility of negotiation at a neutral site, and thus ready for immediate launch when the ''Europa'' was rammed by a concealed Klingon warship and the order to abandon ship was given.  In the chaos of resumed hostilities, she was able to string up a total of ten lifeboats before the attention of a Klingon Bird-of-Prey turned to her shuttle, and she warped out at just barely the last moment before its disruptors would have torn her shuttle apart.  No other lifeboats from ''Europa'' were recovered, and (despite a negative self-assessment of her own performance) she received a commendation.

*[Career Event] As XO of ''USS Excalibur'', attended final negotiations in the Delphic Expanse for the entry of the Xindi into the Federation.  She assisted in the foiling of an attempted bombing by the previously-unknown "Sons of Caracas" movement seeking revenge against the [https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Xindi_incident Xindi attack] over a century prior; the agitators were revealed to be working for the Orion Syndicate, in similar fashion to their interference with the second Babel Conference.
 
*Promoted to Captain of ''USS Callisto'', a ''Nimitz''-class light cruiser (reclassified from heavy cruiser in 2260) like the ''Europa'', in 2275.  Commanded two five-year tours of second-pass exploration, following up the preliminary investigations by primary explorers like the refit ''Constitution''-class.  Scheduled to take command of the ''USS Hathaway'' after ''Callisto'''s decommissioning in 2285; with delays in the Hathaway's launch, she first burned off her extensive accrued shore leave, and then took up shore duty at the Copernicus shipyards to bend her logistical skills towards "shoving her ass out of spacedock already".
