Earth map

North America (upper left) in relation to five of Earth's seven continents

North America was a continent on Earth and, along with neighboring South America, was the ancestral home of the Native American Human tribes. The nation-states of Canada, Mexico, and the United States of America were located on the North American continent.

North America was depicted in many mission insignias of NASA's space programs, especially for the Apollo program and Space shuttle program, in the 20th and 21st centuries. Some of these insignias survived into the 22nd century where they were displayed in the 602 Club. (ENT: "First Flight")

20th century-era maps of the northern hemisphere were stored in the USS Enterprise library computer in 2254. One map depicted Alaska on the Pacific Ocean coast of North America. Another map depicted North America from the point of view of the Arctic Circle, showing the same region. These maps were among the materials viewed by the Talosians when they scanned the Enterprise computer. (TOS: "The Cage")
