In 2162, the Rochelle escort a Denobulan freighter. A Klingon warship took offence at the presence of a "Human" ship and destroyed the freighter in retaliation. The event led to a reevaluation of Federation-Klingon relations and led to the Denobulans withdrawing from galactic affairs. In 2311, an artistic rendition of the Rochelle was part of an exhibit at Memory Alpha. (ST reference: Federation: The First 150 Years)
