In 2363, the USS Enterprise-D used maneuvering thrusters to escape her moorings from the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards, Mars for the first time. (TNG short story: "Meet with Triumph and Disaster") When, in 2370, the Enterprise-D was attacked by an unknown assailant it’s sub-light and warp engines were damaged leaving only the maneuvering thrusters in operation for the starship to move and attack the aggressor.

- Maneuvering thrusters are one of three methods of propulsion on ships of the Tau'ri Fleet; the other being the hyperdrive and sublight drive. While manoeuvering thrusters are by far the slowest form of propulsion, they are able to make slight adjustments to a ship's trajectory and to help gain momentum. Reverse thrust is also possible, which is in place to help a ship slow down in the low gravity of space. (Stargate: SG-1, Stargate: Atlantis)
- Maneuvering thrusters are one of three methods of propulsion on Daedalus-class and Prometheus-class ships—the other being the hyperdrive and sublight drive. While manoeuvering thrusters are by far the slowest form of propulsion, they are able to make slight adjustments to a ship's trajectory and to help gain momentum. Reverse thrust is also possible, which is in place to help a ship slow down in the low gravity of space. (SG1: "Flesh and Blood") (SGA: "The Daedalus Variations") Ancient shuttles also posses maneuvering thrusters. (SGU: "Light")
- In 2153, Travis Mayweather, while piloting Shuttlepod 2 away from an asteroid, lost the left thruster due to debris from the asteroids. He made it back to Enterprise NX-01 only using the right thruster. (ENT: "Impulse") In spacedock, all vessels were required to stay at maneuvering thrusters until they had cleared the outer space doors. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country) The term "maneuvering thrusters" was initially used in Star Trek: The Motion Picture. It was never heard in TOS or TAS.

(ENT: "Impulse") In spacedock, all vessels were required to stay at maneuvering thrusters until they had cleared the outer space doors. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country) All reaction-based technologies operated on the Newtonian principle of the "Law of Inertia": that an object in motion will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force. This was similar in some ways to impulse engine technologies and thrusters were sometimes called impulse thrusters or maneuvering jets. (DS9: "Rocks and Shoals"; TNG: "Encounter at Farpoint" , "Coming of Age" ) On a Constitution-class refit, the maneuvering thrusters were placed along the outer edges of the hull. (Star Trek: The Motion Picture) In Starfleet during the 24th century, maneuvering thrusters were part of the reaction control system and were also placed in similar positions. (VOY: "The Cloud") These were typically placed in groups of four or "quads" on starships. (TNG: "Final Mission" ; ENT: "Future Tense") The term "maneuvering thrusters" was initially used in Star Trek: The Motion Picture. It was never heard in TOS or TAS.
