Appearances


"Message in a Bottle"

In the episode "Message in a Bottle", the USS ''Prometheus'' was fully commissioned and began a series of shakedown cruises before it was commandeered by Romulans. USS ''Voyager'''s Emergency Medical Hologram and the experimental Mark II Emergency Medical Hologram aboard the ''Prometheus'' help Starfleet successfully retake the ship. It was on this mission that Starfleet learns of ''Voyager'''s presence in the Delta Quadrant.
"Endgame"

When a Borg transwarp conduit opens near Earth, a ''Prometheus''-class ship is part of the fleet that is sent to intercept the perceived threat and escorts ''Voyager'' home.[1]
"Azati Prime"

When Archer is transported to the future by Daniels, several shots of the battle through the window are shown. One or more Prometheus class ships fly by the Enterprise-J just long enough to be visible.

Technology


Multi-Vector assault mode

The USS ''Prometheus'' is a testbed of technologies being researched by Starfleet. In standard configuration, the ship is composed of an arrowhead-shaped primary hull attached directly to a secondary hull supporting four warp nacelles on short pylons in an 'X' configuration. In battle, this ship can go into "multi-vector assault mode" in which the vessel may divide into three ships — the saucer, the upper engineering hull, and the lower engineering hull — to allow for multiple independently moving weapons platforms. The saucer has two small warp nacelles that are stored in recesses while joined and extend once the saucer has separated. The three components can later reconnect.
The ''Prometheus'' also has enhanced defences including ablative armor and regenerative deflector shields.
The entire ship is fitted with holographic projectors, allowing the ship's Emergency Medical Hologram to travel throughout the ship.

Registry


The ''Prometheus'' CGI model gives the ship's registry as "NX-59650". However, production designer Michael Okuda used "NX-74913" for all the internal displays, including the ship's dedication plaque.
