Product Details

The Antares (NCC-501) was a 23rd century Antares-type Federation starship operated by Starfleet. In 2266, Captain Ramart was the commanding officer of this ship. His first officer-navigator was Tom Nellis. There were an additional 18 male crewmembers aboard the Antares. In that year, the crew of the Antares transferred a young man, Charles Evans, who had been stranded on the planet Thasus for fourteen years, to the USS Enterprise, so he could be transported to Earth Colony Alpha V to be reunited with his closest living relatives. On Stardate 1535.8, the Antares was destroyed when young Charlie used his psychokinetic powers to make a baffle plate on the shield of the ship's energy pile "go away." Charlie did not seem to understand the seriousness of his actions, saying simply that the baffle plate was warped, and that the Antares would have blown up anyway. (TOS: "Charlie X")
