A Big Thanks To Rod Cooper For The Stl. File


Spacedock was under construction in 2257. (DIS: "Will You Take My Hand?")

By 2285, Spacedock was completed and fully operational. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock)

In 2285, the USS Enterprise returned to Spacedock after serving as a cadet training ship on an ill-fated mission in which Khan's plan to steal the Genesis Device and kill Admiral James T. Kirk for revenge was thwarted. At Spacedock, the Enterprise was to be decommissioned, rather than repaired. Kirk – with the help of CaptainScott as well as Commanders Uhura, Sulu and Chekov – stole the Enterprise to rescue Spock's body from the Genesis Planet. The USS Excelsior attempted to give chase, but had been sabotaged by Captain Scott, and "stalled" when it attempted to jump to transwarp just outside the station. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock


In 2286, an unknown probe entirely disabled Spacedock upon reaching Earth. The shutdown happened before any vessels within, including the Excelsior, could be launched, resulting in the equally powerless vessels being trapped behind the space doors. When Kirk and his crew had resolved the crisis, power was restored as the probe left the planet. Kirk was demoted to captain, and offered command of a starship – namely the USS Enterprise-A, which was docked within Spacedock. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home)

After a brief shakedown cruise, the Enterprise-A returned to Spacedock while Captain Scott worked to resolve design flaws made apparent by the ship's maiden voyage. In 2287 the starship ultimately departed in a hurry, while repairs were still underway, to deal with the crisis on Nimbus III, with the final shuttlecraft carrying the command crew back from shore leaverendezvousing with the ship after it had cleared the station. (Star Trek V: The Final Frontier)


The Enterprise-A was moored at Spacedock prior to an ill-fated trip to escort KlingonChancellor Gorkon to a peace conference on Earth in 2293. Kirk ordered a departure from the facility at impulse speed, despite the fact that regulations specified thrusters only while inside the structure. Although Lieutenant Valeris, the ship's helmsman, initially questioned the captain's order, she successfully performed the departure and later admitted she had "always wanted to try that."

Following the Khitomer Conference, the Enterprise-A was to return to Spacedock to be decommissioned by the orders of Starfleet Command. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country)

In an alternate timeline, Harry Kim and Tom Paris stole the prototype runabout USS Yellowstone from Spacedock in 2372. (VOY: "Non Sequitur")

Captain Carol Freeman of the USS Cerritos once escorted the USS Enterprise out of Spacedock. (LD: "An Embarrassment Of Dooplers")
