Vulcan destroyed by Red Matter[1]
Vulcan destroyed by Red Matter[1]
On Stardate 2258.42, Vulcan was attacked by the Narada, a Romulan ship from the future. Six Starfleet ships were destroyed by the Narada:[1] the U.S.S. Truman,[1] the U.S.S. Farragut,[1] the U.S.S. Mayflower NCC-1621,[1] the U.S.S. Excelsior',[2] the U.S.S. Armstrong,[2] and the U.S.S. Defiant NCC-1764.[2] The U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701 survived only because its departure from Earth was delayed, allowing Cadet James T. Kirk to warn Captain Christopher Pike of the danger that the ship faced.[1] Unfortunately, none were able to stand up to the power of the Narada's Red Matter weaponry, and Vulcan was destroyed by an artificial quantum singularity, killing billions of Vulcans in a matter of minutes.[1]
