2260, stardate 6001.11 {04 January}In the Gamma 400 system, in orbit of Starbase 12, the "Enterprise" is drydocked and converted over to a "Bonhomme Richard" class heavy cruiser. Her new systems include two retractable phaser banks, an experimental photon torpedo system, warp 8 capacity via PB-32 engines, and a complement of 430. Other shipwide upgrades consistent with the "Bonhomme Richard" configuration include a major bridge upgrade, turbolift alterations, transporter upgrades, and the shipwide elimination of gooseneck intercom units [HCE, SotF, WNM/CMn].The Marishal, a race of strongly telepathic nontechnological bipeds from a planet in the Procyon sector, are are discovered by the U.F.P. Vulcan teams will be brought in to teach them biofeedback techniques to correct their overpopulation problem [TOS #39].

The Klingons encounter the Kreel [TNG #5].
01 February (stardate 6605.17)New Star Fleet uniforms are issued. They include brightened colors and greater diversification of sleeve mark braids and insignias. Class B duty uniform group/division colors are altered: green blue replaces med- ium blue for sciences, red replaces sand for services, and light green replaces green tan for deck (command) group. Class A dress uniforms reflect the same color alterations and now feature gold braid/piping for officer grades--the matching hat is discarded, as are the epaulet bars. Sciences and services insignias are swapped back to normal. Blue-grey ordnance belts are also phased out at this time [FRS, WNM/CMn].April The Epsilon class (E-1) communication station is authorized for con- struction. Nearly 100 of these space station facilities will be built in the decades to come, with the first 9 flanking the disputed Klingon border by the late 2260s to serve as listening posts. Each station will house a complement of 539, a dozen shuttlecraft, and 42 antennas (making up 11 communications arrays) [JRM2, FSF].

He will found an information service on Deneb V and sell the Denebians the rights to a Vulcan fuel synthesizer, resulting in imprisonment by the local authorities. This will result in conviction of patent fraud on Deneb V, stardate 3140.0 and a death sen- tence. He will resultingly escape from custody in a stolen shuttlecraft under fire by a Denebian space patrol and crashland on an uncharted Class K world inhabited by androids [IM, EOM].

stardate 2986.2About this time, Fleet Captain Christopher Pike saves the lives of seven cadets aboard an old Class J training starship, removing them to safety when the ship's baffles plates rupture. For this action he is awarded his second Medal of Honor. However, prolonged exposure to the delta radiation leaves him with severe scarring and disfiguration. This is followed by loss of motor function, and cardiac and renal failure, resulting Pike's confinement to a life support carriage provided with servo-mechanisms. Eventually he will lose all control over body movement and be able to com- municate only through coded elecroencephalographic signals [EOM, Me].

The Organians, super-beings in reality, put a stop to the war and establish the Organian Peace Treaty along with the Klingon Neutral Zone. The Organian Treaty Zone is established over the next three months by negotiation. The new zone makes important changes in the Klingon/U.F.P. border and results in additional territory for both governments. Although both sides will honor the treaty, the fate of various 'orphaned' planets in the Klingon Neutral Zone remains unresolved. This Organian Conflict is also known as the "Second" Klingon-Federation "War." Some time afterwards, the Organians are asked to intervene regarding the Iruhe mind-predators of 4408B Trianguli, resulting in a mysteriously empty and quiet world [EM, TM, FASA, SFB, TOS #35].Emperor Kassa commits suicide, unable to bear the shame of being defeated in such an ignominious manner by a pacifist culture. His heirs begin a period of reorganization, and Imperial policy begins to make a subtle shift from conquest by force to conquest by economic domination [FASA].
On Neural (Zeta Bootis III), the Klingons begin to introduce modern firearms [PLW].
[Y 156] The Orions destroy a Kzinti border station. The Kzinti-Hydran Treaty is signed. Each pledges to attack the Klingon and Lyrans if the other is attacked by them.

By setting up a ring of orbital trivium satellites, the parasites are destroyed. The "Enterprise" heads for Starbase 10 [OA].November [reference stardate 2/0811] The Mark III "Alamo" class defense oupost is placed on location. These outposts are capable of withstanding a tremendous amount of punishment while delivering powerful offensive blows and are normally positioned in orbits around vital planets. They house a complement of 410 crewmembers, 280 passengers, and 30 shuttlecraft. They are built on location but can be moved by several specially-designed "Samson" class tugs [FASA].
Klingon D-11C "One Wing" class destroyers enter service [FASA].
The U.S.S. "Hood" (NCC-1707) heavy cruiser is attacked by a Kzinti cruiser. The bridge of the "Hood" is destroyed, her command officers killed. Ensign M'ress, sneaking aboard the enemy vessel, sends a distress signal--earning her a promotion to Lieutenant [Log 5].

2262, January [reference stardate 2/0901]The Organians decide to discover whether or not Humans and Klingons can live and work together. They select Sheridan's World as a sight of an experimental colony composed of both Humans and Klingons. Should the project succeed, the Organians will consider lifting many of the restrictions to developing other worlds in the region [FASA].The "Kepler" (K-1) class deep space trading station is authorized. These stations will be constructed by Star Fleet division's orbital assembly station at Starbase 16 for peaceful access in neutral space. Designed for extensive cargo handling and to provide recreational facilities for passing ships, each trading post consists of a central hub and three radially-attached arms. By the end of the 23rd Century, a total of 96 such stations will be constructed, each housing from 798 to 1,130 personnel and (at least in later years as not initially intended to be military installations) an optional 12 phaser emplacements. Before the 2270s, 17 will be in service, located in remote and little-developed regions of the U.F.P., originally intended for the support of colonization efforts on the Federation frontier [JRM2, K7P, EOM, STM].
[Y 158] The Fourth Klingo-Kzinti War begins. Citing their treaty, the Hydrans almost immediately launch an attack against the Klingon border squadrons. The Lyrans join the Klingons in fighting both Hydrans and Kzinti. The U.F.P., anxious to reduce the threat to their security posed by the Kling- ons, shifts fleet units to the Klingon border, and discusses with the Organians the possibility of limited action by the U.F.P. to restore the "balance of power." This is, however, a "hoax" (as the U.F.P. would never consider military power as a solution to the problem), intended to influ- ence the Klingons to negotiate an immediate settlement to end the war. The plan backfires [SFB].
The Klingon K-30E class monitors are decommissioned [FASA].
Corbomite (Element 140) is discovered on Starbase 27: named after James Kirk's famous bluff [MRM]!

A hardcopy cartridge output slot is added to the Science Station. The Helm/Navigation console's warp factor readout and astrogator function monitor boards (of 10 lights each) are replaced with ship's sensors activity monitors (9 lights each). The Helmsman's Station's status board and control panels are replaced with a retractable weapon targeting scope and an all-new helm function panel (a 6x6 board of buttons/indicators with 6 operating modes/overlays). Bridge overhead cove lighting colors are also altered (Communications Station from yellow to green, Science Station from blue to yellow, Engineering Station from red to blue etc.) [OA/Cp, TM, EBP].

stardate 3468.1The "Enterprise" is stopped dead in space by a super-being calling himself Apollo, while approaching Pollux IV [WM].[Y 159] In an attempt to stop the seemingly endless and inconclusive battles between the two powers, the first Romulan/Klingon non-aggression and technological treaties are signed at Villiam ("Speaker") III, near The Tri- angle, known as the Klingon-Romulan Treaty of Smarba. Afraid of the apparent growing military might of the U.F.P., the Romulans and Klingons decide to concentrate on this common enemy. The Romulans, currently ahead in territory, give up many disputed planets as well as the plans for an older-model cloaking device and the plasma weapon. In return, the Klingons provide a number of older D-7 ships equipped with Klingon weapons and engines. This allows the Romulans to experiment with converting half a dozen Warbirds to War Eagles. These increase pressure on the U.F.P. border. The U.F.P. transfers elements of the Star Fleet from the Klingon to the Romulan border. This allows Klingons to tranfer ships to fight the Kzinti. The U.F.P. attempts to use the "threat of force" as a substitute--for simple force has failed, and results in a dangerous sit- uation which nearly destroys the U.F.P. [FASA, SFB].

In doing so, the "Enterprise's" warp engines are burned out, forcing the ship to drift to Amerind on impulse engines for 59.223 days. The first evidence of the Preservers, an advanced culture known to have saved many primitive civilizations in ancient times, is found on this class M world. This planet is later also known by the name Miramanee. In the next century, at least two more Preserver-seeded worls will be discovered [PSy, TNG #28]. February [reference stardate 2/1002] The last of the Mk I "Anton" class cruisers are commissioned, as they are replaced by the Mk II design [FASA].The U.S.S.

"Achernar" (NCC-1732) heavy cruiser is commissioned, the first major starship with the PB-47 circumferential warp drive, and the last major starhip class with circumferential (as opposed to linear) engines. This second variation on the "Constitution" class will establish records for hyperspace acceleration unsurpassed until the development of linear warp drive in the mid-2260s. Her expanded systems include 6 phasers, 2 photon torpedo banks, and an externally-mounted deflector shield grid. Thirteen ships of this class will be built (NCC-1732-NCC-1744) and 22 "Constitution/Bonhomme Richard" ships will be converted over to this class. On stardate 6835.57, the U.S.S. "Achernar" will verify the existence of the Klingon "K't'inga" D-8 class warship "Make'" ("Death," KL 67348) [SotF, FRS, HCE].At approximately this time, the U.S.S. "Intrepid" (NCC-1717) heavy cruiser is reported missing. Three weeks later the "Enterprise" will be assigned to locate her [TW].
stardates 5027.3-5027.4On sealed orders, the "Enterprise" enters Romulan space and is captured by a small fleet of Romulan vessels: "Luctas" ("Starfire," ChR 316), "Parno" ("Broadsword," ChR 381), and "N'Lanaes" ("Predator," ChR 385). The "Enterprise" escapes with the Romulans' new cloaking device and the fleet commander. It is confirmed that Romulans are now employing Klingon vessels (D-7 battlecruisers) and technology due to the recent Klingon-Romulan Alliance. This action of acquiring the Romulan cloaking device is known as Operation Purloin [EI, FRS, FASA].Over the next couple years, Star Fleet Division's Bureau of Intelligence will duplicate and mass-produce the cloaking device modules for use aboard Class I starships. The prototype Star Fleet cloak, based upon the Romulans' design, will first be tested in the "Wraith II" (WKI-2) stealth shuttle in 2266 by Lt. Commander Sulu at the White Sands Flight Center on Earth. The Vulcan-designed "Tandem" 14 (SW-7) warp shuttles will later be equipped with cloaks. The "Federation" (NCC-2100) class dreadnoughts will be among the first major starship classes outfitted with cloaking device receptacles. The dematerialization modules needed to complete the systems are assigned to only those ships with cause to need them, as (at least in the early units) the systems are to be used only for emergencies due to the drain on ship's power, and possibly the problem of subspace radiation contamination. In the 2270s, Spock will be granted permission to experiment with the original Romulan cloaking device at Star Fleet Headquarters in San Francisco to determine the true cause of Captain Kirk's brief disappearance [TOS #70, FRS, HFP, FCP, TOS #40].
According to an alternate account (or perhaps Star Fleet propaganda?): Despite intense study by the best minds in Star Fleet, the Romulan cloaking device remains a mystery. Nevertheless, political pressure forces Star Fleet to make a public display of the stolen device. The device is installed on a Federation ship and dignitaries from all over the U.F.P. observe the experiment from a nearby vessel. To the horror of the test's organizers and the Federation Council (who pressed for the test) the ship fitted with the cloaking device and the vessel containing the U.F.P. dignitaries both vanish. Seconds later, there is a huge explosion. Neither ship is ever seen again, and scientists quit working on cloaking device technology [FASA].
stardate 5029.5In the Epsilon Indii system, the Starnes expedition is found dead on Triacus. The "Enterprise" investigates and a non-corporeal alien is found responsible and is dealt with. "Enterprise" fatalities: 6 (unspecified) landing party members [CL].
