Captain James T. Kirk will forever be linked to the ship,
USS Enterprise. Having commanded the ship after Captain Christopher Pike's retirement, Captain
Kirk took the ship on a five year voyage to explore strange new worlds. He has been
court-martialled several times and disciplined for disobeying direct orders from Starfleet. One
most talked about events will be when he disobeyed orders to venture to the Genesis planet to
rescue his late comrade Captain Spock. He was court-martialed and lost his Admiralty, but a new
starship, the second ship to bear the name Enterprise.
Later, he was court-martialed again, after he was found a suspect in killing Chancellor
Gorkon, during a diplomatic mission. His imprisonment in the penal colony, Rura Penthe nearly
costed him his life, but was rescued just before the Klingons had the chance to kill him. He was
helped by a shapeshifter, but found that it too was involved in this incident trying to get the
captain dead.
But his death would soon follow, after he and two legendary members of the Enterprise are
guest of honors aboard the Enterprise-B. In this trip, the ship answers a distress call to a
stricken vessel, and must assist them. But due to the gravitmetric distortions, the ships suffers
heavy damage. Scotty utilizes the idea of using a resonance burst from the main deflector dish,
and thus Kirk does the work, but is swept out into space, after a hull breach in the deflector
room.
