Turn Starfleet Enterprise Off and Back on Again
Alternating Reality
(split 2233)
"Her five-twelvemonth mission: to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new life and new civilizations, to boldly go where no one has gone earlier."
The USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) was a 23rd century Federation Constitution-class starship operated by Starfleet. Launched in 2258, the vessel was officially fabricated the Federation flagship. ( Star Expedition )
In 2260, the Enterprise became the showtime starship assigned by the Federation to undergo a 5-twelvemonth exploration mission of uncharted deep space. ( Star Trek Into Darkness )
After nearly five years of service, the Enterprise was destroyed during the battle over the planet Altamid in 2263, when it was attacked by Krall and his Swarm ships. It was before long replaced past the newly-congenital USS Enterprise-A. ( Star Expedition Beyond )

Service history
Construction
The Enterprise nether construction in Iowa
The Enterprise was under construction effectually 2255 at the Riverside Shipyard, in Iowa, and launched into service from the San Francisco Fleet Yards, Earth. ( Star Trek )
Events in the movie bear witness the ship under initial construction in Iowa, but the send'south official dedication plaque lists the vessel equally being from the San Francisco Fleet Yards, indicating that – at some point prior to launch – the unfinished vessel was either transferred in that location or that the Riverside Shipyard was a branch of the San Francisco Fleet Yards.
As described in the script of Star Trek, the Enterprise was to exist "unmistakably" identifiable in the outset view of the transport, fifty-fifty though the arts and crafts was meanwhile to be not yet more than than a "skeletal frame". The send was besides to look "unformed, raw" at that phase of its development. [1]
Maiden voyage
The Enterprise gear up for launch
In 2258, the ship'due south planned maiden voyage, nether the control of Christopher Pike, was brought forward after Earth received a distress call from Vulcan while the majority of the fleet was engaged in the Laurentian system. Equally a result, the Enterprise was crewed primarily by Starfleet Academy cadets.
The Enterprise departs spacedock
The ship launched from Starbase i with seven other starships to reply to the call, including the USS Farragut, the USS Truman, and the USS Hood. However, its departure was delayed considering helmsman Hikaru Sulu forgot to undo the external inertial dampener, which actually saved the ship subsequently it arrived before long after the rescue fleet had been destroyed past the Romulan mining ship Narada.
The Enterprise warps into Nero'due south mess
The Enterprise proved to be no lucifer for the technologically-advanced missiles of the Narada. Fortunately, Nero recognized the Enterprise as the vessel that Spock served on. He chose not to destroy the Enterprise in order to let Spock to see the devastation of Vulcan.
Enterprise constitute that it was unable to contact Starfleet or to begin evacuating the inhabitants of Vulcan, as the Narada'south drill platform, while in operation, prevented communications and transporter use. Despite the sabotage of the drill platform, Nero launched a container of red affair into the planet's core, which created a singularity that acquired Vulcan to implode, killing all simply near x thousand Vulcans.
Following the destruction of Vulcan and the capture of Captain Pike, Acting Captain Spock intended to accept the Enterprise to rendezvous with the rest of the fleet at the Laurentian system, but acting First Officer James T. Kirk thought information technology meliorate to attempt to stop Nero start. A fight ensued, and Spock and then marooned Kirk for wildcat on Delta Vega, but Kirk managed to beam back on board with the help of another Spock and Montgomery Scott. Spock was forced to resign his control to Kirk co-ordinate to Regulation 619, and the Enterprise reversed grade in an attempt to intercept the Narada before it could strike Globe.
The Enterprise rises to a higher place Titan
Emerging from warp in the atmosphere of Titan, the Enterprise hid from the Narada's sensors using the magnetic distortion of Saturn'due south rings, while effulgent Spock and Kirk aboard the Romulan ship before its drill could be activated. All the same, the duo could not be rescued every bit the drill was turned on presently after their arrival. Kirk and so rescued Pike, while Spock confiscated the Jellyfish and used it to destroy the drill.
The Enterprise fires on the Narada's missiles
Spock then warped out of the system, with Nero pursuing. Spock set a collision grade, and Nero launched his remaining missiles to defend the Narada. Unexpectedly, the Enterprise then warped in, firing phasers total spread, destroying the missiles, and allowing Spock to continue. Shortly before impact, Spock, Kirk, and Pike were beamed out by Scott onto the Enterprise.
The Enterprise beingness pulled into the black hole
The impact ignited the ruddy matter aboard the Jellyfish, creating a black pigsty which caused the Narada to be stuck. When Kirk offered assistance, Nero refused, saying that "he would suffer the death of Romulus a thousand times," and that "he would rather dice in agony than receive the Enterprise's assistance."
Kirk acknowledged the refusal and the Enterprise brought all her phasers and photon torpedoes to deport on the Narada, firing on the send and diggings it to pieces, causing the massive send to collapse and be pulled into the black hole. During the try from escaping the black hole'south gravity, the Enterprise was almost pulled into the black hole also, fifty-fifty through warp. However, the transport was saved when the ship'south warp core was ejected and detonated; the resulting shock moving ridge propelled the Enterprise to safety.
Post-obit the successful mission of the Enterprise, Pike was promoted to admiral and Kirk was assigned to control the Enterprise as his relief. Kirk later chose Spock as his first officer. ( Star Trek )
Nibiru
Enterprise resurfacing on Nibiru
In 2259, the Enterprise was sent to survey the planet Nibiru when the crew discovered a volcanic eruption would render the archaic Nibirans extinct. Kirk parked the Enterprise underwater, despite Scott's protests, and this ultimately forced Kirk to expose the transport to the natives in order to ship Spock out of the volcano earlier the cold fusion device he placed detonated.
After appearing to the natives, in violation of the Prime Directive, the Nibirans drew a sketch of the Enterprise on the ground and began to worship the send equally a deity. Returning to World, Kirk was demoted, but Freeway convinced Admiral Alexander Marcus to permit him appoint Kirk equally his first officer.
Going after "John Harrison"
The Enterprise departs Starbase 1
That evening, the rogue agent John Harrison attacked Starfleet Headquarters to assassinate Marcus, only killed Motorway instead. Marcus gave a vengeful Kirk permission to take the Enterprise to Qo'noS where Harrison had fled, and burn down on his location with 72 advanced long-range torpedoes. Chief Engineer Scott protested the loading of the photon torpedoes aboard Enterprise without his hazard to examine them, offering his resignation, which Kirk accepted. Chekov was appointed as Scott'south replacement.
Enterprise and Vengeance come face to face
Kirk found Harrison on Qo'noS and had him brought to the brig. Harrison was reticent about his motives, only suggested Kirk examine the torpedoes Marcus gave him, and also gave him a prepare of coordinates, which the captain sent to Scott to investigate.
Marcus's daughter Carol and McCoy opened upwardly a torpedo and discovered it held a homo in cryogenic stasis. Harrison revealed he was Khan Noonien Singh and the torpedoes held his fellow Augments, with whom Marcus had threatened him into cooperation. Marcus arrived in the USS Vengeance and demanded Kirk mitt over Khan, but Kirk refused, intending to expose the conspiracy by bringing Khan to trial on Earth.
The USS Vengeance fires on the USS Enterprise
The Vengeance caught up with the Enterprise at warp and fired on information technology, halting information technology equally information technology arrived only outside World. Marcus beamed up his daughter before preparing to wipe out all other witnesses to his plot, just Scott, who had sneaked aboard the Vengeance at the coordinates given past Khan, temporarily deactivated its weapons. Kirk and Khan donned thruster suits to commandeer the Vengeance, while Spock ordered McCoy to remove the cryo tubes from the torpedoes.
The crippled Enterprise spiraling down to World
Aboard the Vengeance, Khan killed Admiral Marcus and demanded Spock hand over the torpedoes in exchange for Kirk, Scott, and Carol and the safety of the Enterprise. Spock, knowing Khan would renege on letting the Enterprise survive, ready the transported torpedoes to detonate in the Vengeance's cargo bay. The damage inflicted acquired both ships to hurtle to Earth: the Vengeance's engines were compromised while the Enterprise's warp cadre became misaligned, causing loss of power and propulsion. Equally the ship plummeted toward Earth, Kirk realigned the ship's warp core despite Scott's warning about the high radiation levels.
The 5-year mission
The Enterprise's refitted impulse engine and nacelle fins
In 2260, following nearly a year of repairs, the Enterprise was rechristened and refitted to get the get-go starship to embark on a v-year mission of uncharted deep infinite exploration. ( Star Trek Into Darkness )
During its five twelvemonth mission, the Enterprise made a cease at Thasus and picked upwards a supply of Saurian brandy. ( Star Trek Beyond )
In 2263 – nearly iii years into its v-year mission – the Enterprise visited the planet Teenax, where Captain Kirk was tasked with brokering peace between the Teenaxi and the Fibonans. Following that failed consignment, the Enterprise traveled to Starbase Yorktown for resupply. ( Star Trek Beyond )
Terminal voyage
The Enterprise at Starbase Yorktown in 2263
Soon afterward docking at Yorktown, the Enterprise was ordered to traverse the Necro Cloud to rescue Kalara'due south coiffure, allegedly stranded on the planet Altamid. Despite the navigational difficulties presented by the cloud, the Enterprise was equipped with the nearly advanced navigational sensors and emerged from the nebula in orbit of Altamid – immediately coming under attack by Swarm ships commanded past the tyrant Krall.
The Enterprise in the Necro Cloud
The Enterprise was unable to handle this way of attack, the transport's phasers having minimal to no effect against the swarm, the photon torpedoes proving to exist ineffective, and the shields unable to place the assaulting ships every bit threats, leaving them open to attack.
The offset assault destroyed the Enterprise's phasers and main deflector dish and, as the ship attempted to warp back to the nebula, the swarm severed its warp nacelles. The transport was and then boarded past Krall'southward drone soldiers and his henchman Manas, searching the transport for an artifact known every bit the Abronath and killing many Enterprise crew members.
Krall'south swarm overwhelms the Enterprise
Every bit Lieutenant Sulu attempted to pilot the Enterprise away from Altamid at impulse speed, Krall ordered yet another set on on the ship, this time severing the primary hull from the secondary hull. With the Enterprise critically damaged, Captain Kirk ordered all hands to evacuate and the ship'due south escape pods were launched. Even so, Krall's ships captured the pods and carried them to the surface of Altamid.
The crew abandons ship from the secondary hull of the Enterprise
The remains of the secondary hull drawing power from the impulse engines prevented the saucer from escaping until Lieutenant Uhura successfully separated the ship. However, the Enterprise had fallen into the planet's gravity well and even with impulse engines restored, could non escape. With the Abronath safely hidden away, Kirk ordered the last of his crew to human their Kelvin pods and abandon transport. The primary hull and then fell out of orbit and entered Altamid's atmosphere, crash-landing to a stop at an angle.
Kirk and Chekov return to the wreck of the Enterprise
With the crew scattered on Altamid, Kirk decided to render to the wreckage of the Enterprise and endeavour to use her scanning systems to locate the crew. Kirk, Chekov, and Kalara boarded the send through a hole in the hull and returned to the ruined bridge, where Chekov was able to restore power to the engineering panel and scanning systems. Kirk took Kalara to supposedly think the Abronath, at which point Kalara called Krall to report. Unknown to Kalara, Kirk suspected the double-cross and had Chekov employ the Enterprise's scanners to runway Kalara'south recall to Krall'south base.
The saucer of the Enterprise burns on Altamid
After the charade was revealed, Kalara and a few of Krall's drones chased Kirk and Chekov through the wreckage of the Enterprise, ultimately cornering them against one of the thrusters. Discovering the ship's thrusters to still exist primed, Kirk used a phaser blast to ignite them, causing the Enterprise to flip over.
As the ship flipped, Kirk and Chekov were able to use the distraction to escape by shooting out the span window and sliding down the saucer. The saucer flipped upside down and crashed to the woods below, killing Kalara, who was underneath it. Following the flip, the wrecked saucer was left upside down on the wood floor of Altamid, burning.
Subsequently Kalara'south expiry, Krall'southward men searched the wreckage of the saucer for the Abronath merely were unable to locate it. They retrieved the ship'due south logs while aboard the information in which inspired Krall to threaten Sulu to observe the Abronath. The Enterprise coiffure, once reunited, repaired the USS Franklin to escape and hunt Krall, abandoning the wreckage of the Enterprise on Altamid.
Subsequently Krall's defeat, the surviving members of the Enterprise crew fabricated a toast to their fallen send and were later reassigned to a new starship, the USS Enterprise-A, and continued their mission of exploration. ( Star Expedition Beyond )

Groundwork information
In the script of Star Trek, the Enterprise, in its ready-for-launch status, was referred to every bit "miraculous" and "the queen of the fleet". At the end of the script, the vessel was additionally described as "the greatest starship always built." [2]
The revised Enterprise actualization in Rihanna's video for "Sledgehammer"
For its appearance in Star Trek Beyond, the Enterprise was refitted by Sean Hargreaves. According to Hargreaves, the redesign consisted primarily of proportional modifications, including placing the warp nacelles farther apart and sweeping dorsum the warp pylons to pull the engines back from the rim of the saucer. [3]
The revised Enterprise appeared in the music video for the song "Sledgehammer", the single from Star Trek Beyond past Rihanna.
Apocrypha
The previous USS Enterprise of the alternating reality
Star Trek: Inaugural to Darkness, Issue #2 shows that the Enterprise had another predecessor after Enterprise NX-01 in the alternating reality. This send was in service since, at least, 2239, during which it was under the command of the alternate reality's Robert April ( β ), who abandoned the ship and disappeared during that same twelvemonth. The ship was then later decommissioned in 2257. According to the biography on the Star Trek movie app, Christopher Pike was appointed helm of this USS Enterprise ( β ) in 2254.
The 2013 virtual collectible carte du jour battle game Star Trek: Rivals has the USS Enterprise as card #108.
The Enterprise, or rather the alternate reality Constitution-class, is available as a playable ship in Star Trek Online with the release of the Agents of Yesterday expansion pack, via players opening in-game Kelvin Timeline lockboxes that have a chance to have the vessel within. It is known in the game as the "Kelvin Timeline Heavy Command Cruiser". Players in the game, who play starship captains in the "prime" universe, also participate in missions visiting the alternate reality, interacting with the Constitution-class ship USS Yorktown ( β ) and coiffure member 0718.
The Constitution-course of the alternate reality is significantly larger than the prime number timeline's version, and is both longer and "taller" than a prime number universe Galaxy-class vessel. In-game references state that thanks to rapid evolution of armed forces technology in the alternating reality, its weapons and other systems are comparable to those used past prime number universe starships in the early 25th-century, despite being adult over a century "earlier".
The Star Trek: Boldly Become comic serial revealed that the crew of the Enterprise went different ways while the USS Enterprise-A was beingness built. James Kirk was given temporary command of the USS Effort ( β ) with Leonard McCoy and Pavel Chekov joining him. Spock and Nyota Uhura took a leave of absence from Starfleet and were living on New Vulcan with Spock, focusing on edifice a new Vulcan Science Academy. Montgomery Scott divided his fourth dimension betwixt supervising the construction of the Enterprise-A and teaching at Starfleet University. Hikaru Sulu was promoted to lieutenant commander and assigned to the USS Concord ( β ) equally first officeholder under the command of Clark Terrell ( β ).
