How Star Trek's Newest Enterprise Leapt From Video Games to TV

The final season of Picard is bringing our first on-screen USS Enterprise since, well, Enterprise. But it has a history in Star Trek before its TV debut.

When Star Trek: Picard returns next month, as well as the iconic TNG crew it’ll be bringing a similarly iconic vessel as well—the USS Enterprise. But it won’t be the vessel we last saw Jean-Luc captain in Nemesis, it’ll be an all-new version of the Federation flagship—but one that has history before its TV debut.
