U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-E
With the destruction of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D in 2371, the next ship off the Sovereign class production line was the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-E, to continue that venerable line of vessels.[2] The Enterprise, launched in 2372,[3] would be only the second ship in this line,[2][4] taking its place as the most advanced ship in Starfleet.[3]
Constructed at the San Francisco Fleet Yards and commissioned on Stardate 49827.5, the Enterprise, under the command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard, had substantially the same bridge crew as its immediate predecessor,[3] although Lieutenant Commander Worf had accepted a transfer to Deep Space 9 prior to the ship's launch.[5]
Note
According to "The Price of Freedom: The United Federation of Planets Sourcebook," the Enterprise was commissioned on Stardate 49027.9; this was contrary to the date given on the ship's commissioning plaque, visible on the bridge set in Star Trek: First Contact, however, which listed the commissioning date as Stardate 49827.5. The erroneous stardate from "The Price of Freedom," therefore, has been disregarded.
