The USS Enterprise (NCC-1701-C) was an Ambassador-class Federation starship in service in the early 24th century. In 2344, the Enterprise and her crew sacrificed themselves to save a Klingon outpost, and started the process of peace.
[edit] Service History
The fourth Federation starship to bear the name Enterprise was launched in 2332 under the command of Captain Rachel Garrett. (Starfleet Academy novel: The Haunted Starship; TLE novels: The Art of the Impossible, Well of Souls; TNG short story: "The Fourth Toast").
In late 2335 or early 2336, first officer Commander Nigel Holmes was killed in a raid by Klingon renegades, and replaced by Commander Samir al-Halak. Al-Halak became involved in the Asfar Qatala cartel while taking shore leave on Farius Prime, and was later captured by Qatala agents who posed as Starfleet Intelligence operatives. These false agents then had the Enterprise dispatched to the Draavid nebulae cluster. There, the Enterprise discovered a disabled Atawhean colony ship. The Enterprise rescued the colonists and transported them to the USS Blakeley.
Alerted to the ruse after this rescue, the Enterprise tracked Halak to a dead pre-Cardassian world, where they discovered Captain Garrett's ex-husband, Ven Kaldarren, attempting to find a portal that would have been used by the Hebitians to travel from this world to Cardassia Prime. Alien entities then attacked the Enterprise away team, and Kaldarren sacrificed himself so the rest could escape. (TLE novel: Well of Souls).
In May 2344, the Enterprise was patrolling near the Klingon-Romulan border, when they received a distress call from a Klingon outpost on Narendra III. On arrival at Narendra, the Enterprise found the outpost under attack by four Romulan Warbirds, the Enterprise put up a gallant fight, but was ultimately destroyed by the superior numbers. Some of the crew survived however, and were taken prisoner by the Romulans. (TOS novel: Vulcan's Heart and TNG episodes: "Yesterday's Enterprise" and "Redemption, Part 2").
- Before the Enterprise's destruction, she traveled through a temporal rift to an alternate 2366, where they were discovered by the USS Enterprise-D. The Enterprise-C crew are, at first, eager to stay in the future, but after discovering that the Federation is facing destruction at the hand of the Klingon Empire, they decide to return.
- A Klingon attack on both Enterprises leaves Captain Garrett dead, but Lieutenant Richard Castillo assumed command and took the ship back in time along with Lieutenant Natasha Yar. Following the battle, both officers survive and are taken prisoner. (TNG episode: "Redemption, Part 2").
