The TNG content brought us the Meridian. This is basically a Horizon lookalike that is specialized in Isogen Mining, with rates similar to the D'Vor. The protected cargo is rather small, so it is an active mining ship.
Once the ship is built, Iso-Emulsion can be refined to Iso-Resin. In addition, the special particles that are only available to alliances that have territories, can now be obtained. This unlocked more research for everybody.
4 new research nodes are also added to the Territory Research Tree, which requires Iso-Resin. Iso-Resin can be gathered from Away Team missions, however that will be going away once the arc is complete and everyone has the free ship (Per Scopely)
Mine and refine Isogen to get the Iso-Emulsion needed to level up the ship.
The ship is level locked using special components required for the Warp Drive.

Scopely also has a "Skin" refit for the Meridian that increases the refinery rates by giving additional refine chests, but it does increase the Isogen required. Considering how fast the Meridian mines, it seems acceptable. This may not be worth it for players that do not have access to all Isogen (2* & 3*).
The Meridian significantly adds to a players ability to gather and use Isogen. The above is a diagram showing how Isogen is used.
