I was looking through historical files today, and found this fascinating illustration. It shows a size comparison of all Starfleet ships called “Enterprise”. There have been six Starfleet ships to carry the name, although, only the last five were Federation starships. Enterprise NX-01 was an Earth Starfleet ship that was retired when the Federation was founded, in 2161.
My ancestor, Jonathan Archer, was captain of the NX-01.
Captain Archer, and myself are the only Archers to have served aboard an Enterprise.
