Constitution-class

 
  The Constellation, under the command of Commodore Matt Decker, was heavily damaged in 2267 near system L-374 by an extragalactic planet killer weapon. The planet killer destroyed the planets in system L-374, including a planet where the crew of the Constellation had taken refuge. Enterprise personnel programmed the hulk of the Constellation to self-destruct its impulse drive inside the planet killer, destroying the robotic weapon. TOS The Doomsday Machine.

Named in honour of the U.S.S. Constellation, a sloop-of-war that fought for the Union in the American Civil War, as well as for the aircraft carrier U.S.S. Constellation CV-64. I consider the Constellation's registry NCC-1017 an error, as it was a simple rearrangement of the decal sheet from the AMT Enterprise model kit, done by people who had obviously no clue about Matt Jefferies's registry scheme. Name from dialogue. Class visually identified.

 

 

  U.S.S. Constellation

Constellation-class

 
  Prototype of the Constellation-class. In 2293, the Constellation did certification tests. Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country. In 2371, the Constellation was sent to transport the Jem'Hadar abandoned on DS9 to Starbase 201. DS9 The Abandoned. After the Starship Honshu was destroyed on stardate 51408.6, Starfleet assigned the Constellation and the Defiant to search for survivors in adjacent star systems. DS9 Waltz.

The first Constellation-class ship seen, the Stargazer, was originally planned to be a Constitution-class ship, allowing the visual effects staff to make use of the existing movie Enterprise model. The producers did not make the decision to build a new model for the Stargazer until after the episode was filmed with LeVar Burton calling it a Constitution-class ship. The choice of the name Constellation was based largely on the fact that it could be dubbed over Geordi's line since the two words are so similar. The Constellation-class was designed by Andrew Probert. Name from dialogue. According to Bjo Trimble's Concordance, the Constellations registry number is NX-1974.

 

 

  U.S.S. Constitution NCC-1700

Constitution-class

 
  Prototype of the Constitution-class. The Constitution was at Starbase 11 in 2267. TOS Court Martial. Other Constitution-class vessels like the Enterprise use schematics of the U.S.S.

Named after the Polish astronomer Nicolaus Copernicus (1473-1543), who proposed that the planets have the sun as the fixed point to which their motions are to be referred. Class visually identified. Name and NCC are speculations of the ST Encyclopedia.

 

 

  U.S.S. Cortéz

During the retake of DS9, the Cortez informed the Defiant that the Dominion fleet had broken off the fight and was in retreat. DS9 Sacrifice of Angels. The Cortéz, under the command of Captain Quentin Swofford, was destroyed while patrolling the Cardassian borders. The U.S.S. Defiant searched the area for almost six hours, but couldn't find any sign of survivors. The Cortez had a crew of 400. DS9 Far Beyond the Stars.

Nmed after the Spanish conquistador Hernán Cortéz (1485-1547), who overthrew the Aztec empire and won Mexico for Spain. I have no clue why Starfleet named a ship after such a man. Name from dialogue.

 

 

  U.S.S. Crazy Horse Excelsior-class  
  In 2369, the Crazy Horse was part of task force 3, under Captain Picard's command during an expected Borg invasion. TNG Descent, Part 1. The Enterprise-D was ordered to rendezvous with the Crazy Horse in 2370 in order to pick up Rear Admiral Erik Pressman. TNG The Pegasus.
