March
- Stardate 8130.3-8141.6 / 22 March[2]: Khan Noonien Singh and his followers on Ceti Alpha V capture the U.S.S. Reliant NCC-1864, and use it to ambush the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701, now manned by Starfleet Academy cadets on a training cruise under Admiral Kirk and Captain Spock. Following a battle in the Mutara Nebula near Station Regula I, Khan is killed and the Enterprise is severely damaged. Spock sacrifices himself to save the ship from the detonation of the Genesis Device, which Khan stole prior to the battle. Spock's body is launched into space, but lands on the newly-formed Genesis Planet.[1] En route to Earth Spacedock, the Enterprise drops off Dr. Carol Marcus at Regula I, while Dr. David Marcus and Lieutenant Saavik transfer to the U.S.S. Grissom NCC-638 to continue studying the Genesis Planet.[3]
April
- Stardate 8210.3 / 20 April:[4] After returning to Earth, Kirk meets with Ambassador Sarek, Spock's father, and the pair discover that before his death, Spock telepathically transferred his mind, or katra, into Dr. Leonard McCoy, who has been taken into custody for psychological evaluation by Starfleet Security. While Kirk and the other members of the Enterprise crew steal the ship in order to return to the Genesis Planet to retrieve Spock's body, David Marcus and Saavik find a Vulcan child on the Genesis Planet, who proves to be the regenerated body of Spock, growing at an accelerated rate. Meanwhile, the Grissom is destroyed by a Klingon bird of prey commanded by the ambitious Commander Kruge, who wants the secrets of Genesis at any cost. Marcus is killed, and Kirk is forced to destroy the Enterprise to keep it out of Klingon hands. Kirk kills Kruge in hand-to-hand combat, and he escapes with his crew aboard Kruge's ship as the Genesis Planet disintegrates around them. They take the bird of prey to Vulcan, where Spock's katra is reunited with his revived body.[3]
June
- Stardate 8390 / 25 June:[5] Nearly three months after the destruction of the Genesis Planet, Admiral Kirk and the rest of the former Enterprise crew leave Vulcan, expecting to face the repercussions of their actions in the theft and destruction of the ship. The arrival of an alien probe forces them to travel back in time to 1986 to retrieve a pair of humpback whales, as the extinct species is the only one able to communicate with the probe. In recognition of their actions, which saved all life on Earth, all but one of the charges are dropped. Kirk is reduced in rank to Captain, and the crew are assigned to the newly-renamed U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-A.[6]
August
- Stardate 8454.1 / 28 August:[7] More than two months after the incident with the cetacean probe, the Enterprise-A has nearly finished undergoing repairs to correct a host of issues discovered during the ship's shakedown. A Vulcan terrorist, Sybok, captures Paradise City on Nimbus III, taking the Federation, Klingon, and Romulan diplomats assigned there as hostages. Despite the ship's continued performance issues, the Enterprise is dispatched to the Neutral Zone to resolve the situation. Instead, the ship is seized by Sybok and his followers, who take it to a planet that Sybok believes is the mythical Sha-ka-ree, where they discover a powerful entity that claims to be God before it attempts to use the ship to escape its imprisonment on the planet. The Enterprise crew, with some unexpected help from a Klingon bird of prey, defeats the entity and retakes the ship.[8]

- ↑ Star Trek II makes it clear that there are 1000 star-days in an Earth calendar year (Carol Marcus' recording was dated Stardate 7130, and said to be a year prior to the events of the film, which began on Stardate 8130). This means that there are approximately 2.74 star-days per Earth day. Stardate 8130 was also given as Admiral Kirk's birthday, which was established in "A Quality of Mercy" (SNW) as 22 March. Given this information, the 80-star-day difference between Star Trek II and III means that Star Trek III is set 29 days later, on 20 April.
- ↑ Given the dating scheme established in Star Trek II and continued in Star Trek III and IV, the stardate of 8390 means that 66 days have passed since the events of Star Trek III, which also corresponds to Kirk's log entry at the beginning of the film, which states that "we are in the third month of our Vulcan exile." This places the events of the film on 25 June.

- ↑ Given the dating scheme established in Star Trek II and continued in Star Trek III, IV, and V, the stardate of 8454.1 means that 64 days have passed since the events of Star Trek IV. This places the events of the film on 28 August.
