Launched in [[Chronology: 2154#November|November 2154]], the [[NX class]] Starship ''Columbia'' was commanded by [[Earth Starfleet Ranks#Captain|Captain]] [[Hernandez, Erika|Erika Hernandez]].<ref name="ENT79"/> Initially, Captain [[Robinson, A.G.|A.G. Robinson]] was anticipated to command the ''Columbia,'' but he died unexpectedly in [[Chronology: 2153#March|March 2153]].<ref name="ENT50"/>

''Columbia's'' launch was pushed back from June to November 2154 when problems arose with the engines, leaving the ship unable to assist the [[Enterprise NX-01|''Enterprise'' NX-01]] during an incident with a [[Romulan Star Empire|Romulan]] drone ship.<ref name="ENT89"/> Not long thereafter, [[Earth Starfleet Ranks#Commander|Commander]] [[Tucker, Charles III|Charles "Trip" Tucker III]] transferred as chief engineer from the ''Enterprise'' to ''Columbia,'' quickly solving many of the problems plaguing the ship's engines. Shortly after being launched, the ''Columbia'' was called upon to assist the ''Enterprise,'' which had been sabotaged by [[Klingons]].<ref name="ENT91"/> After solving the problems with the ''Enterprise,'' the ''Columbia'' then assisted her sister ship in recovering Dr. [[Phlox]] from the Klingon colony on [[Qu'Vat]], and engaged several Klingon warships in combat.<ref name="ENT92"/>

In late 2154, a site was finally chosen for the location of [[Starbase 1]]. Within a month, [[Tellarites|Tellarite]] and [[Andorians|Andorian]] ships joined the ''Columbia'' in bringing the first construction team to the planet; this group of technicians and engineers informally dubbed themselves the "[[Starfleet Corps of Engineers]]."<ref name="UFP150"/>

In [[Chronology: 2155#November|November 2155]], a fleet of five Romulan warbirds under the command of [[Romulan Ranks#Admiral|Admiral]] [[Mindar]] approached the [[Berengaria system]]. The ''Columbia,'' the [[Discovery NX-04|''Discovery'']], under the command of Captain [[Curtis]], and the [[Excalibur (NX class)|''Excalibur'']], under the command of Captain [[Stiles, Bran|Bran Stiles]], immediately saw that they were hopelessly outmatched. The Romulans were jamming all communications out of the system, so Hernandez ordered Stiles to retreat and warn [[Earth Starfleet|Starfleet Command]]. Two Romulan ships broke off to pursue the ''Excalibur,'' while ''Columbia'' and ''Discovery'' fought the remaining three. ''Columbia'' and ''Discovery'' were destroyed in the engagement, having bought time for as many of the base personnel to escape as possible.<ref name="UFP150"/>
