(The root of all realities)


The Federation Starship Ajax,[2] an Apollo class vessel,[3] saw service in the 24th century.[2] In 2327, Ensign Cortin Zweller was assigned to the Ajax after graduating from Starfleet Academy.[4]

In 2364, the Ajax was one of several Federation starships selected to receive warp drive enhancements from engineering specialist Kosinski and his aide, the Traveler; the Ajax's chief engineer noted a rise in engine effieciency, though it was later revealed that the effect was due to the Traveler and had nothing to do with Kosinski's new warp equations.[2]

The Ajax was one of 23 starships that formed part of a tachyon detection grid in 2368, when Captain Jean-Luc Picard of the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-D established the network along the Klingon-Romulan border in order to expose the Romulans' involvement in the Klingon Civil War.[1]

The following year, the Ajax performed a deep space exploration mission into Sector 21396.[5] Named for two heroes from Greek mythology who fought in the Trojan War: Ajax of Salamis and Ajax of Locris.[3]
