The surprise attack allowed Lurin and his men to successfully hijack the Enterprise. On a mission to Ligos VII, the Enterprise was attacked by two Klingon Bird-of-Prey starships under the command of the Ferengi DaiMon Lurin. The ship spent a total of 17.4 days repeating the same interval of time. Feelings of déjà vu allowed the Enterprise crew to gather clues which allowed them to send a message into the next loop and avoid the collision. Each cycle ended in a catastrophic collision with the USS Bozeman, destroying both ships. ( TNG: ' Disaster')Īlso in 2368, the Enterprise was trapped in a temporal causality loop near the Typhon Expanse. Antimatter containment was nearly compromised fortunately, repairs were made before the ship was destroyed. The ship struck a quantum filament in early 2368, causing a loss of all power aboard ship and severe damage to most systems. It coordinated a tachyon detection grid which was used to detect cloaked Romulan ships from crossing the border. The Enterprise was the command ship in Captain Picard's ad hoc armada which blockaded Romulan assistance to the House of Duras during the Klingon Civil War. Although Romulan sabotage was initially suspected, it was later learned that undetected flaws in the hatch were responsible. The hatch malfunctioned later that year, causing extensive damage to the warp core. ( TNG: ' Family')ĭuring that refit, the starship received a phaser upgrade as well as full damage repair and a new dilithium chamber hatch. ( TNG: ' The Best of Both Worlds, Part II') The extent of the damage required a full refit at Earth Station McKinley, which lasted five to six weeks. Later, the saucer module sustained damage to its impulse drive and Decks 23 through 25 were sliced open by the enemy during the final battle over Earth. In the attempt, the deflector and warp core were overloaded, while several decks were flooded with radiation. The main deflector dish was transformed into a last-ditch energy weapon, which failed due to the assimilated knowledge of Captain Picard. Deck 36, including main engineering, was decompressed after a cutting beam damaged the engineering hull, killing at least eleven, and possibly eight more. ( TNG: ' Booby Trap')ĭuring the Borg incursion of 23, the Enterprise suffered heavy damage. In 2366, the Enterprise had traveled about ten thousand light years. ( TNG: ' 11001001')ĭuring its first encounter with the Borg, Sections 27, 28, and 29 on Decks 4, 5, and 6 were removed for analysis by the Borg. The Enterprise was returned to Captain Picard's control following the incident, and the Bynars freely accepted the consequences of their actions.

They intended to use the ship to repair the damaged computer on their homeworld. Later in 2364, the Enterprise was hijacked from Starbase 74 by the Bynars. The Enterprise received a computer refit in 2364. This was confirmed in VOY: ' Threshold', in which a shuttle from USS Voyager becomes the first craft to actually achieve warp 10. 55), the ship didn't actually achieve warp 10 or go beyond it, but it did travel at the speed of about warp 9.9999999996. ( Enterprise-D dedication plaque, first version)Īccording to Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual (p. ( Enterprise-D dedication plaque, second version) On stardate 41025.5, the Enterprise was commissioned. On stardate 40759.5, in the year 2363, the Enterprise was launched from Mars. Pierce committed suicide in the same manner, leaving a telepathic imprint in a bulkhead that was not discovered until 2370.

He killed the two officers, Marla Finn and William Hodges, then disposed of their bodies in the plasma stream.

A member of the construction team, Walter Pierce, became jealous of a former lover's new relationship. One of the ship's nacelle tubes was the site of a multiple murder- suicide while it was still under construction at Utopia Planitia. ( TNG: ' The Pegasus') In an alternate timeline, the Enterprise was the first Galaxy -class warship constructed. ( TNG: ' Booby Trap', ' Galaxy's Child') Some of the Enterprise's components were derived from technology originally developed on the USS Pegasus. Leah Brahms was responsible for much of the Enterprise's warp propulsion system design. ( TNG: ' Booby Trap', ' Eye of the Beholder') Construction was supervised by Commander Quinteros. The construction was a massive undertaking, involving thousands of people across disciplines. The Enterprise was built at Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards orbiting Mars in the Sol system. 6.4 Barash’s simulation – Captain Riker.
