The United Earth Starship Daedalus was the prototype of the Daedalus class.[1][2][3] The Daedalus was launched in 2139 under the command of Captain Monique Duvall, but was destroyed upon launch while testing an experimental ion drive system developed by Victor Brodesser in competition with Henry Archer's Warp 5 Engine.[4]

EN7 Timeline

Although it appeared to have been destroyed upon launch, the Daedalus was actually propelled to a distant part of space. Fourteen years later, the survivors of the Daedalus crew were found by the Enterprise NX-01, which had been accidentally transported over from the Prime Timeline through a rift in spacetime caused by the detonation of the ship's ion engine.[4][5]
