FOREWORD This is the second book in a new series that will build into a detailed reference work covering all the ships that have appeared in STAR TREK over the years. This book and its sister volume cover Starfleet ships: the first volume covers the ships from STAR TREK: ENTERPRISE, STAR TREK: DISCOVERY and the original series; this volume covers the STAR TREK: NEXT GENERATION era and the handful ships of that we know about from the early years of the 24th century. Other volumes will cover geographical areas, such as the Delta Quadrant, or races such as the Klingons. The plan is that eventually we will cover every part of the STAR TREK universe. The ships that are in this book are all canon ships that have appeared in one of the STAR TREK TV series or movies, however briefly. All are from the Prime timeline and don’t take account of the vessels that can be found in the movies made since
