The Archon was a Federation starship that was in service in the mid-22nd century. In 2167, the Archon disappeared while investigating the planet Beta III.

The fate of the Archon would remain a mystery for a hundred years, until the USS Enterprise visited Beta III in 2267, and learned that the sapient computer Landru had destroyed the ship, and had murdered or absorbed her crew. The Archon's visit became an apocryphal tale to the Betans, who mixed it in with their quasi-worship of Landru; her crew became known as the Archons. (TOS: "The Return of the Archons")
