Encyclopedia > USS Prometheus (Star Trek)

USS Prometheus is the name of several starships in the fictional universe of Star Trek. A fictional universe is a cohesive fictional world that serves as the setting or backdrop for one or (more commonly) multiple works of fiction. ... This article is being rewritten at Star Trek/temp. ...


The first USS Prometheus (NCC-71201) was a Nebula class starship in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Second Sight".

First launched on stardate 50749.5 (2373) from the Antares Shipyards after over a decade of extensive development by the Advanced Starship Design Bureau at the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards on Mars.

The Prometheus was the first ship to be equipped with a "Tactical Multi-Vector Assault Separation" which enabled the vessel to separate into three fully independent vehicles during a battle, and reconvene and reconnect after the mission is completed. This separation is similar to the saucer separation of a Galaxy class starship which did not require the use of a Starbase to reconnect the parts of the vessel (of course that separation was designed only for emergency use and not necessarily intended for use in battle, even if the Enterprise-D's ability to do this was used for that purpose on more than one occasion). In the Star Trek fictional universe, saucer separation is the term used to describe when the saucer section on certain types of Starfleet starship disengages from the stardrive section. ...

In 2374, the vessel was properly commissioned and started testing missions before it was commandeered by the Romulan Tal Shiar. Due to the collaboration of two Starfleet Emergency Medical Holograms, one being from the USS Voyager, the ship was successful retaken by Starfleet. It was on this mission that Starfleet learned that the Voyager was not lost as previously assumed for the past four years.

Starship Modeler - USS Prometheus Kit Preview (989 words)
