The Enterprise, SNW, and Discovery Years

2151 THE EVENTS OF ENTERPRISE SEASON ONE

Sometime in the 22nd century, the existence of Lanthanites is revealed, an unusually long-lived species, including Pelia.

At least in Starfleet, neckties are still worn by officers. (Shadows of P'Jem) Trains are still in use on Earth. (Shuttlepod One) The Boy Scout program still exists. (Rogue Planet)

April. First contact with the Klingon species. (Broken Bow)

April. The first starship capable of warp five, the Enterprise, NX-01, is launched. On its first mission, Captain Jonathan Archer learns that a species known as the Suliban is in contact with someone in the future who is apparently involved in a temporal cold war. (Broken Bow -- reference made to first contact with the Vulcans "90 years ago".)

Vulcan Subcommander T'Pol is named Science Officer. Commander "Trip" Tucker is Chief Engineer. Dr. Phlox is Chief Medical Officer. Malcolm Reed is Tactical Officer. Travis Mayweather, who was raised on the "Boomer" interstellar trading ship Horizon, is helmsman. Hoshi Sato is Communications Officer.

May 6. First contact with the Axenar. (Fight or Flight)

June. Six weeks into their mission, after three weeks in deep space, the crew of the Enterprise explores their first uninhabited world -- one where pollen causes psychotropic reactions. (Strange New World)

June. Commander "Trip" Tucker becomes pregnant after an inadvertant exchange of DNA with an alien woman. It is the first recorded interspecies pregnancy involving a human and the first recorded human male pregnancy, not counting transgendered indiviuals. (Unexpected)

Enterprise makes contact with human survivors of the fabled lost colony of Terra Nova, learning that the colony was destroyed with an asteroid or comet hit the planet, releasing dangerous radiation. Colonists retreated underground. After winning their trust, Captain Archer helps the survivors move to a different continent where conditions are healthier. (Terra Nova)

The exploits of the Enterprise are followed closely on Earth since it represents a major achievement of human technology and courage. School children are particular fans, sometimes sending letters and artwork. (Breaking the Ice)

Enterprise science officer T'Pol decides to remain on Enterprise, thus ending her betrothal. While this is a violation of Vulcan tradition, she feels that her presence on Enterprise is important. (Breaking the Ice)

November. Tensions increase between the Vulcan and Andorian governments after Captain Archer helps Andorian agents unveil a treaty violating survelience station at the Vulcan monastery on P'Jem. Andorians return and destroy the facility, giving the monks enough warning to evacuate. The Vulcan government breaks off "joint fleet operations" with the Humans, ordering T'Pol back to Vulcan. In an altercation on Koridan, she saves the life of Vulcan Captain Sopek, who then agrees to speak to the Vulcan High Command on her behalf. (Shadows of P'Jem)

November 9. Enterprise confirms the existence of microsingularities, long thought by Vulcans to exist. Tucker and Reed are trapped in the damaged Shuttlepod One for several days and are near death when rescued. (Shuttlepod One)

Late 2151. Enterprise makes first contact with a species of shapechangers living on a rogue planet drifting between stars. Archer helps the shapechangers evade hunters from another world who have been killing them for nine generations. (Rogue Planet)

2152 (Most of) THE EVENTS OF ENTERPRISE SEASON TWO

Early 2152. T'Pol agreed to a mind meld with Tolaris, a member of a Vulcan group called V'tosh ka'tur" ("Vulcans without logic") by the Vulcan elders and are on a pilgrimage to explore and incorporate their emotions, to find a balance between emotion and logic. T'Pol, however, is distressed by the procedure and breaks it off. Soon after she learns that she has contracted a terminal mental condition from the mind meld. She and Dr. Phlox keep it secret because those who have the condition are ostracsized in Vulcan society. (Fusion)

March 2152. An Enterprise shuttle apparently triggers an atmospheric explosion that kills 3,600 people on a Paraagan colony. Enterprise is ordered to rendezvous with a Vulcan ship and return to Earth. Enroute, Archer is contacted by Daniels, the agent from the future who was thought killed by the Suliban (centuries later, Daniels will be known as Kovich). Daniels says the explosion did not happen in the original timeline and was caused by someone who doesn't want Archer's mission to succeed. Using Daniel's information, Archer finds a cloaked Suliban ship. A team from Enterprise boards the ship and captures three data disks that prove the accident was not the fault of the Enterprise personnel. Enterprise then flees toward the Vulcan ship. Silik is ordered to capture Archer by his boss from the future. The Suliban pursue Enterprise and order Archer to surrender, but Archer is taken to the future by Daniels. The 31st century they arrive in, however, is not what Daniels remembers. His city in the future was destroyed long ago and the buildings are crumbling. To be continued... (Shockwave)

March 2152. Silik vows to destroy Enterprise but T'Pol, now in command, invites the Suliban on board to prove that Archer is not on board. They confine the crew to quarters and question T'Pol under drugs that she is unable to completely resist. Daniels uses Archer's communicator and scanner to signal to the past and Archer gives T'Pol instructions. Trip contacts Malcolm, Hoshi and others through a doorbell circuit and they hatch a plan. Hoshi crawls through very tight access spaces to get drugs from Sickbay, then delivers the injectors to Malcolm, losing her top when it snags on something near the end of her journey. Malcolm gets to Daniel's quarters and locates the device Archer mentioned, but Siliban guards capture Malcolm and Silik acquires the device. Trip, also freed, simulates a warp core breech and the Suliban prepare to evacuate. Silik, meanwhile, uses the device from Daniel's quarters to try to signal his contact from the future. A figure appears, but it is Archer. He jumps out of the beam, the device having allowed him to return to his own time. He takes Silik captive and blackmails him into releasing Enterprise, which jumped to warp as soon as the Suliban left and is under pursuit. The Vulcan ambassador continues to push to end the Enterprise mission, but T'Pol defends her crewmates. The Starfleet command council agrees to continue the mission. (Shockwave II)

April 2152. T'Pol tells Archer the story of her great-gransmother's visit to Earth in October 1957. (Carbon Creek)

Mid 2152. The USS Enterprise encounters the Romulans, but does not see what they look like. (Minefield)

Late 2152. Archer learns that T'Pol is infected with a terminal mental condition. Vulcan diplomats learn of her condition and discriminate against her. (Stigma)

Late 2152. Archer is successful in negotiating a cease fire between Vulcan and Andorian forces on a world claimed by both of them. Archer earns grudging respect from Vulcan Ambassador Soval. (Cease Fire)

A ship appparently from 900 years in the future is found by the USS Enterprise with a dead pilot on board. The pilot's DNA is Human, but includes Vulcan, Terellian and Rigelian DNA. The ship is powered by a temporal drive and uses organic circuitry. When Enterprise activates a distress signal from the craft, a cloaked ship from the future recovers it. Enterprise discovers that Tholians are apparently working for one of the factions in the temporal cold war. The Tholians attack Suliban ships attempting to take the small ship from the future away from Enterprise. (Future Tense)

2152 (Most of) THE EVENTS OF ENTERPRISE SEASON TWO

Archer is captured and tried by Klingons for assisting a group of refugees from Klingon ocupied space. He is sentenced to the dilithium mines on Rura Penthe, but escapes. His Klingon defense counsel is also sentenced to Rura Penthe, for one year, because he protests unfairness of the course. When Archer escapes, the Klingon remains behind, determined to serve out his sentence and return to Kronos to work for reform of Klingon society. (Judgment)

January 10, 2153. Travis Maywerather's father dies on the ECS Horizon but notification does not reach Travis. Six weeks later he is able to visit Horizon, enroute to Denova Station and helps his brother, Paul, adjust to command. (Horizon)

March 1, 2153. An arctic research team on Earth discovers debris from an alien vessel, nearly a century old, buried in a glacier along with the bodies of two cybernetically enhanced humanoids. Once those beings are thawed for investigation, they come to life and abduct the scientists and a transport vessel. Enterprise intercepts the transport and by the skin of its teeth destroys the Borg, but not before a message is sent, aimed at the Delta Quadrant. (Regeneration)

The Xindi attack Earth, killing 10 million people, allegedly because Earth will destroy their home world hundreds of years in the future. Archer learn from a shadowy figure from the future that the Xindi are building an even more powerful wespon, with which to inflice an even more powerful attack on Earth. Archer takes Enterprise to the Delphinic Expanse, seven weeks from Earth at high warp, to seek out the Xindi. (The Expanse)

2153 (Most of) THE EVENTS OF ENTERPRISE SEASON THREE

Enterprises searches the Expanse for weeks, finding little trace of the Xindi, who are determined to be made up of multiple species that are somehow genetically and politically related. They learn the location of what is allegedly the Xindi home world, but find it destroyed and only an asteroid field remaining. (The Xindi)

Enterprise manages to download 90% of a Xindi database that had been taken by pirates from a destroyed Xindi ship. The data allows the crew to begin narrowing in on the Xindi. In the process, Enterprise begins to understand a series of giant artificial spheres that appears to be transforming the space of the Expanse. (Anamoly)

Enterprise visits a mining colony where part of the Xindi weapon is being built. The colony is refining kemocite for a Xindi named Degra, a humanoid Xindi who is managing the weapon project. The head of the colony, Gralik, agrees to help Archer. They sabotage the kemocite and plant a transmitter on the Xindi ship, but the ship vanishes into a portal used by the Xindi. (The Shipment)

Archer is injured when a spatial anomaly passes through Enterprise. He experiences an alternate timeline in which extra-temporal parasites inhabit his brain and prevent him from remembering anything more than a few hours old. T'Pol becomes Captain but is unable to prevent the Xindi from destroying Earth and other human colony worlds. The last 6,000 humans are lead by Enterprise to Ceti Alpha V where they hide for years from the Xindi. (Twilight)

2154 (Most of) THE EVENTS OF ENTERPRISE SEASON FOUR

Archer forms an alliance with a faction of Xindi and convinces them that they have been misled by the species from another dimension that build the spheres. Archer learns that the sphere builders plan to transform the Expanse so that they can inhabit it. The Reptilian and Insectoid Xindi remain resolute in their intent to destroy Earth, hijacking the completed weapon. They kidnap Hoshi and use drugs to get her to decode the activation codes for the weapon. Taking a Xindi shuttle, Archer and his team destroy the weapon at the last moment, as it prepares to destroy Earth. Remaining behind in the Expanse, Enterprise destroys the sphere network.

Archer is trapped on the Xindi weapon as it explodes, and is apparently killed. When Enterprise eventually returns to Earth, believing him dead, they receive no radio reply from Starfleet and a shuttle, sent to San Francisco to investigate, is attacked by World War II vintage P-51 Mustang fighter aircraft. Archer wakes up in a NAZI medical tent, apparently during World War II. the medical unit is commanded by an alien wearing a NAZI uniform. (Zero Hour)

In an alternate 1944, time traveling aliens who are the "enemy" in the temporal cold war are accelerating Nazi science in order to be able to return to the future.  Archer, working with resistance fighters in the occupied New York, and Enterprise work to stop their leader, Vosk.  They eventually destroy the time machine just as Vosk is about to travel to the future, causing the timeline to reset and Vosk's damage undone.  In the reset timeline, however, the Xindi attack still happened and millions of people sre still dead on Earth.  (Storm FrontI & II)

The Augments capture a Klingon ship and kill the crew. Dr. Arik Soong, incarcerated for his work in genetic engineering, is taken aboard Enterprise to track down Augment DNA found on the Klingon ship. The young Augments capture Soong, but he discovers that he cannot control them. They are eventually defeated and Soong returns to prison. (Borderland, Cold Station 12, The Augments)

The Vulcan people recover the Kir'Shara, a vessel holding the writings of Surak.  Archer temporarily holds the Katra of Surak. The Vulcans discover that they have wandered from the intent of Surak.  Romulans have been secretly infiltraring Vulcan, intent on reunification of their peoples, with the Romulans in control.   (The Forge, Awakening, Kir'Shara)

About this time, the "Class J Starship" comes into service, but this may be a merchant ship class, often operated by families, and not Starfleet vessels.

2200

Jonathan Archer would be 85 years old. Presumably he dies within a few years of the beginning of the new century, if he lives to die of old age.

Sometime around now, the Federation begins an ambitious project to store samples of every plant in the galaxy in a seed vault ship. (Die Trying).

2206

Birth of Amanda Grayson, future school teacher, mother of Spock, second wife of Sarek, and adoptive mother of Michael Burnham.

Starfleet receives intelligence that the Klingons are researching time travel. Section 31 develops its own research project, known as Project Daedalus. The project develops a prototype suit that can use a time crystal to transit wormholes for brief periods of time, holding the wormhole open for the return trip. Michael Burnham's parents are part of the project. Leland sends them Doctari Alpha. Her father, Mike, is killed when Klingons raid, seeking the time crystal, Gabrielle Burnham dons the time crystal suit and escapes into time, but is trapped hundreds of years in the future, able to return to the past briefly to try to stop the artificial intelligence called Control, but always pulled back to the future, where she establishes a residence in Terralecium. Young Michael hides in a closet and is not harmed, but experiences guilt because she believes the family would have left a few days earlier, except that she eanted to say and see a nearby supernova. Sarek adopts Michael and takes her to his home on Vulcan. (Red Angel)

Young Jim Kirk falls in love with "Ruth," (Shore Leave). She is speculated to be a resident of the Amana Colonies near Riverside. While she is fond of Kirk, she ultimately has to break his heart because of religious differences. 

Leonard McCoy begins medical school. 

The implication from the Discovery episode Lethe is that neither Michael nor Spock actually attend Starfleet Academy. Although in Lethe, Sarek is revealed to have sought a position for Spock in the Vulcan Expeditionary Group, Journey to Babel told us that Sarek was upset with Spock for 18 years because Sarek wanted Spock to join the Vulcan Science Academy. Note that within two years, Spock will be a lieutenant on the USS Enterprise.

2256  THE EVENTS OF STAR TREK DISCOVERY Season 1 (Episode 1 date given as May 11, 2256, Earth time)

Federation encounters the Sheliak and negotiates a voluminous treaty. 

USS Farragut crew is decimated by a gaseous entity which consumes red blood cells. Lt. James T. Kirk, on his first deep space assignment, survives. Captain Garrovick, killed, had been Kirk's commander since leaving the academy. 

A lengthy conflict (at least 10 months) begins between the Federation and the 24 houses of the Klingon Empire, triggered when the first officer of the USS Shenzhou Michael Brunham kills a Klingon spiritual leader, T'Kuvma, while saving her captain. (The Vulcan Hello and Battle at the Binary Stars) USS Enterprise, and possibly other Constitution Class ships, are "too far out" on their missions of exploration to be recalled. (Brother)

Young James T. Kirk witnesses a Klingon occupation.

Burnham is court martialled and sentenced to life in prison, but earns the trust of Captain Gabriel Lorca of the USS Discovery. Lorca had previously commanded the USS Buran, which he destroyed rather than allowing his crew to be captured by Klingons about a month into the war. This damaged his eyes, and may have resulted in some undiagnosed mental instability.

Discovery is developing an experimental technology to "jump" long distances without using warp drive. It uses a type of mushroom, Prototaxaties celebritorium, a species made up of exotic material found not only in normal space, but in a discrete subspace domain known as the Myceliel Network. Its fungal roots, aka mycelium, spread across the universe, fanning out into infinity to create a matrix that serves as our intergalactic freeway system. This allows a starship, if properly controlled, to follow this network. The Myceliel drivem, however, requires an inteligence to contol it. Discovery first uses a giant space-going tardigrate, which suffers from the process. Later, the chief engineer, Lt. Paul Stamets, provides the control himself.

Burnham is allowed to serve on Discovery, without rank, and sees it as a way of seeking redemption for causing the war. She helps improve the drive, but it remains unstable and Stamets' health deteriorates.

After a sound defeat of a Klingon fleet, Discovery uses the Myceliel drive one more time, to reach a starbase, but rematerializes at an unknown location in the Morror Universe (Si Vis Pacem, Para Bellum, and Into the Forest I Go).

Peter Kirk is born to George and Aurelia Kirk. 

Hikaru Sulu graduates Starfleet Academy. 

Noyota Uhura enters Starfleet Academy. 

Christine Chapel enters Starfleet Academy, where she is briefly engaged to one of her instructors, Dr. Roger Corby.  (What Are Little Girls Made Of?)

2257 THE EVENTS OF STAR TREK DISCOVERY Season 2

Discovery eventually makes it back from the Mirror Universe, but Captain Lorca revealed as his Mirror Universe double dies first on the emperor's ship.

Klingons obtain cloaking technology from the wreakage of T'Kuvma's ship, but Discovery develops a way to track ships through the cloak, and eventually help negotiate an armistance.

A series of signals or beacons is detected around the galaxy. Christopher Pike is charged with solving the mystery, aboard USS Discovery, while Enterprise is repaired following massive system failures. (Brothers) It is cofirmed that the Red Angel is using the time travel suit developed by Section 31 ten years earlier. (The Red Angel)

A Section 31 threat assessment computer program, known as "Control", begins developing self-awareness, and manipulates Starfleet into following its orders. (Project Daedalus)

The 100,000 year old Sphere Lifeform, knowing that it is about to die, transfers its data on galactic history to USS Discovery, including extensive data on artificial intelligence, desired by Control. (An Obol for Charon)

Control determines that it needs the sphere data about artificial intelligence in order to become fully sentient. Contol inhabits the body of Section 31 Captain Leland, by injecting hinm with nanites. Discovery manages to capture the occupant of the Red Angel suit, and it is Gabrielle Burnham, but she is pulled back to the future, along with the suit,

Ultimately, Leland, and several other unmanned Section 31 ships controlled by Control confront Discovery and Enterprise. The only way to keep Control from obtaining the sphere data is to take Discovery far into the future. Pike obtains a time crystal, and Discovery engineers built a new suit, based on the designs of the original, but only Michael can fly it because only her DNA is close enough to that of her mother, for which the suit design is encoded.

2259  THE EVENTS OF STAR TREK STRANGE NEW WORLDS SEASON 1

During a cataclysmic battle, Georgio destroys the nanites inhabiting Leland, apparently ending Control (whch apparently never heard about "cloud backups"). But Michael opens a time portal to travel to the future, and a select crew (including Georgio but not her adoptive brother Spock) follows her aboard Discovery, to ensure that the sphere data is never found.
