Description

A Starship That Shaped a Generation
From warp drives to transporters, the U.S.S. Enterprise (NCC-1701) gave the world a thrilling glimpse into the imagined future of space exploration in the 23rd century. As a Constitution-class vessel crewed by 428 officers and specialists, the Enterprise became a symbol of interstellar adventure and technological wonder. Her legendary five-year voyage, under the command of Captain James Tiberius Kirk—portrayed by Canadian icon William Shatner—etched both the ship and its captain into science fiction history.

Kirk’s bold leadership and trailblazing spirit led to countless first-contact scenarios, earning him accolades across the galaxy. Known for his unconventional methods and a moral compass that occasionally bends the rules, Kirk consistently chose the greater good over rigid protocol—winning admiration from even his adversaries, as shown in episodes like Balance of Terror. His closest allies, such as Dr. Leonard “Bones” McCoy and Mr. Spock, were not only trusted crewmates but lifelong friends, drawn to Kirk’s charisma and conviction. Despite numerous romantic encounters, Kirk’s enduring love has always been for his command—and for the Enterprise herself.

Celebrate 50 years of Star Trek—a series that has inspired visionaries, innovators, and dreamers across Canada and the world. Don’t miss your chance to own a piece of that legacy.

DESIGN OVERVIEW

The reverse features a powerful side-by-side composition of two Star Trek legends: Captain Kirk and the U.S.S. Enterprise. On the left, Kirk appears in his signature gold uniform, confidently seated at the helm on the bridge. To the right, the Enterprise is rendered with extraordinary precision, highlighting its saucer-shaped hull and sleek warp nacelles. Both images subtly overlap a finely engraved Starfleet Delta Shield, anchoring them within the iconic Star Trek universe.

  • Starfleet’s Youngest Captain: Kirk holds the record as the youngest individual to captain a starship in Starfleet history.

  • Master of Time Travel: Though revered, Kirk is also notorious for committing 17 temporal violations, due to timeline-altering missions—some of which were later reversed.

  • Courtroom Drama: In the 1967 episode Court Martial, Kirk became the first Starfleet captain to face trial, accused of negligence in a crewmate’s death—only to be fully exonerated.

  • Khan’s Nemesis: One of Kirk’s most formidable enemies, Khan Noonien Singh, made his debut in Space Seed (1967), launching a legendary rivalry that would define the franchise for decades.
