About the Enterprise:

This version of the Enterprise made its debut in 2016's Star Trek Beyond where it was just under 3 years (966 days) into its 5-year mission to boldly go where no-one has gone before. During this period, the ship had undergone several refits since it was last seen at the end of Star Trek Into Darkness. These include 6 extra phaser banks, a shorter neck section, swept-back pylons, and several minor alterations to the nacelles.

In the movie, the Enterprise stops at the highly advanced starbase: Yorktown, after receiving an ancient artefact from an alien civilisation. Starfleet admirals then capture a small escape pod containing an alien who says that her ship is stranded on a planet located through a nearby nebula. The Enterprise and her crew then travel through the nebula to the planet Altamid in order to rescue the survivors of the stranded ship. Upon arrival, the Enterprise is immediately attacked by thousands of swarm ships under the control of Krall, an alien who seeks the ancient artefact on board. The Enterprise is severely damaged in the attack and ends up crashing on Altamid whilst most of her crew make it out via escape pods.
