Revision as of 18:12, 19 January 2010

Timeships are vessels designed to be capable of temporal transit. They are generally capable of space travel as well.

Time travel pods, Wells-class starships, and Template:ShipType ships were built for use as timeships. (TNG: "A Matter of Time"; VOY: "Future's End", "Relativity")

The Federation experimented with sending vessels back in time as early as 2268, but timeships were not regularly built or used until after the 24th century. (TOS: "Assignment: Earth"; TNG: "A Matter of Perspective")

In the 23rd century, the USS Enterprise used the light-speed breakaway factor to travel through time. (TOS: "Assignment: Earth") By the 29th century, timeships used both temporal rifts and a temporal displacement drive to travel through time. (VOY: "Future's End", "Relativity")

List of timeships

Officially designated timeships

These timeships were either operated exclusively to travel through time, or were sent on time-travel missions in addition to their primary goals.

Note: the USS Enterprise is included because its mission to 1968 was officially a historical research mission, making it the possibly first ship intended for temporal travel. For details on "accidental" time ventures, see below.

"Accidental timeships"

These starships and vessels were primarily intended for space exploration, however through accident or unofficial action, they traveled to different eras.
