Earth Cargo Service

rdfs:comment

During the early 22nd century the ECS often relied on J class vessels. When the larger and faster Y class ships were introduced, the ECS began phasing out J class ships in favor of these newer class Y ships. By 2151, designs for new cargo ships with engines capable of warp three were on the drawing board. (ENT episodes: "Broken Bow", "Fortunate Son", "Horizon") In 2155, ECS ships were being targeted by unknown assailants. (ENT novel: Kobayashi Maru) The Earth Cargo Service (or ECS) was the primary operating agency governing the operations of Earth-registered interstellar cargo transport vessels in the first half of the 22nd century. It was governed by the Earth Cargo Authority. Ships needed a license to operate under the ECS, which in some cases could be lost if a rendezvous was missed. The crew of these ships would spend years traveling from one planet to another; whole generations of these "boomers" grew up in space, and the ownership of ships often passed down family lines. Before the launch of Earth Starfleets NX-class ships the ships of the ECS were the only Earth presence in outer space, with entire generations, called boomers, growing up in space.

Before the launch of Earth Starfleets NX-class ships the ships of the ECS were the only Earth presence in outer space, with entire generations, called boomers, growing up in space. The Earth Cargo Service (or ECS) was the primary operating agency governing the operations of Earth-registered interstellar cargo transport vessels in the first half of the 22nd century. It was governed by the Earth Cargo Authority. Ships needed a license to operate under the ECS, which in some cases could be lost if a rendezvous was missed. The crew of these ships would spend years traveling from one planet to another; whole generations of these "boomers" grew up in space, and the ownership of ships often passed down family lines. Among the planets visited by the Earth Cargo Service were Draylax, both Teneebian moons, Trillius Prime, Vega colony, Deneva colony, and presumably Earth. (ENT: "Broken Bow", "Fortunate Son", "Horizon") Trade also existed with the Demerians and the Orions. (ENT: "Horizon") It seems probable that other Earth colonies, like Alpha Centauri, were serviced as well. At some point, the Horizon made contact with a Deltan ship, and Captain Mayweather visited Neubilia Prime, but it is unsure if either event was in the context of formal trade. A Y-class ship, a type known to be used by the ECS, was also seen in orbit of Verex III. In the first draft script of "Fortunate Son", it was established that ECS regulations prohibited the holding of prisoners. During the early 22nd century the ECS often relied on J class vessels. When the larger and faster Y class ships were introduced, the ECS began phasing out J class ships in favor of these newer class Y ships. By 2151, designs for new cargo ships with engines capable of warp three were on the drawing board. (ENT episodes: "Broken Bow", "Fortunate Son", "Horizon") In 2155, ECS ships were being targeted by unknown assailants. (ENT novel: Kobayashi Maru)
