USS Edison

The USS Edison (NCC-1683) was a Hoover-class Federation starship operated by Starfleet during the mid-23rd century.

History

In 2256, the Edison fought against a Klingon fleet at the Battle of the Binary Stars, where it was destroyed. (DIS: "Battle at the Binary Stars")

A display of the Edison was visible in the mess hall aboard the USS Discovery when Michael Burnham visited that area shortly after arriving aboard the Discovery six months after the battle. (DIS: "Context Is for Kings")

In 2401, the Edison-class honored the legacy of the previous Hoover-class USS Edison. (PIC: "Võx")
