Historical Events

He is the first to be elected by general election.
  • Early: USS Smith (Byrd class galactic survey cruiser) begins the first round of experimental modifications, to explore models of the cruiser-carrier concept.[2]
  • USS Sheridan (NCC-4463, Larson destroyer) is lost with all but three hands on her maiden voyage to a power system explosion that could not be contained.[3]
The loss was not dated (in the original text), but had to have occurred prior to the crash of Cromwell, a later ship, in the same year.
  • The Memory Alpha planetoid is selected, as an event during the Centennial Survey, for all the archives of the UFP's cultural and scientific knowledge. The eight-year development of the project begins.[4]
  • The plight of Uzor becomes apparent to the people of Boliax: it will be uninhabitable in less than a decade. Solar instability threatens to wipe out the entire Uzor system.[5] [6]
The date of this awareness is SFC-canon.
  • USS Skagerrak (NCC-G504, Bering class) is lost to 'therspace', after rescuing a Tellarite crew.[7]
  • After final funding for the last 26 vessels of the Larson class destroyers is procured, destroyer funds are redirected to experiments intended to address the inherent shortcomings of the single-nacelled configuration of the Syracuse family class.[8]
  • The Pershing subclass (of the Sherman class) cargo drone enters service with Star Fleet.[9]
  • USS Virgo (NCC-1572, Taurus cruiser) is lost from unknown causes while scouting in the direction of Zeta Persei.[10]
  • Having completed a multi-year refit, USS Byrd (first of her class) launches on her second galactic survey, a 13-year voyage.[2]
Presumption, based on that each of the three ships completed 2 surveys, and the Smith was the last to return from her own 13-year voyage.
  • The Constitution class heavy cruisers start receiving transporter upgrades.[11]
This occurred after 2260.
  • USS Cromwell (NCC-4477, Larson destroyer) takes refuge on Delta Canaris VI after the nacelle is ripped out and life support compromised by a relativistic-speed meteoroid cloud.[3]
  • Construction of the Mk VI Larson class destroyer begins.[3]
  • The first conversion of a Mk II Larson class destroyer to Mk VI begins.[3]
  • The third (of three) attempt at further production of the Larson class destroyer is deferred.[3]
Presumably this refers to an expansion of contracts for the present new-builds.
  • USS Pompey (NCC-506) is the first of three Siva Flight II subclass vessels to receive a second nacelle, initiating the Pompey subclass.[8]
  • The final Flight I Loknar class frigate is upgraded to Flight IA standard.[12]
  • Some older Aakenn subclass heavy transports are relegated to Star Fleet training duty.[13]
  • Six Westminster subclass heavy transports are transferred from the SMM to Star Fleet and begin modification into Abbott subclass heavy repair ships begun.[13]
  • Eight of the Coventry class strike frigates enter a yard period where they receive auxiliary deflector spires.[14]
  • The final Sulek class prospector is produced.[16]
  • The Velikovski class prospector, an improved Sulek subclass, enters service with prospectors subsidized by the Resources Division.[16]
  • Star Fleet acquires a limited number of Questor class runabouts for an evaluation period.[17]
  • The vessel selected for the "high" track of the Prospecting And Reconnaissance Integrated Scoutship (PARIS) project was put into production.[18]
  • The civilian Karekh class prospector enters production.[20]
  • The Epsilon proposal for an updated cutter class is accepted.[21]
