NX Enterprise
The NX-01 Enterprise was the first ship in the
line of the NX class. The NX class featured Starfleet’s Warp 5 engine.
The Enterprise was commissioned in April 2151 under the
command of Captain Jonathan Archer. The engine itself was designed by Archer’s
father, Henry Archer. Henry Archer died before the engine was ready.
The Vulcans kept Earth back from exploring space, thus
the continous delays in the engine flying. The Vulcans decided to send along
T’Pol, who ended up becoming the first officer aboard Enterprise.
The ship underwent a minor refit in May 2153 before its
long-term mission into the Delphic Expanse. During this refit, the torpedoes
were upgraded to photonic torpedoes.
