The USS Emden (NCC-1856) was a 23rd century Federation Constitution-class starship operated by Starfleet.

In 2293, the Emden was assigned to patrol the Neutral Zone. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, set artwork)

Later that year, the location of the Emden was labeled in the star chart for the "Operation: Retrieve" command briefing. This star chart was seen in the office of the Federation President on Earth. For "Operation: Retrieve", this starship was named as one of the ships on station in Sector 21166-8. (Star Trek VI: The Undiscovered Country, set artwork)

Background

  • On the plans, the Emden was represented by the silhouette of a refit Constitution-class starship.
