The USS Majestic (NCC-31060) was a Miranda-class Federation starship in the 24th century.
The Majestic was an active participant in the Dominion War. In 2374, the Majestic was part of the fleet assembled by Captain Benjamin Sisko for Operation Return.
During the battle, the Majestic and the Sitak escorted the USS Defiant as the ships attempted to break through the Dominion lines. It was severely damaged after its saucer section was penetrated by a polaron beam, and finally destroyed after a torpedo destroyed its starboard nacelle. (DS9: "Sacrifice of Angels")
Background
The scene from "Sacrifice of Angels" depicting the destruction of the Majestic was later reused in the battle sequence from "What You Leave Behind".
The Majestic was possibly named for the ocean liner RMS Majestic, the world's largest passenger ship when completed in 1922, the various ships of the British Royal Navy that bore the name HMS Majestic, or the Majestic class battleships of the Royal Navy, the largest battleships in the world when first launched in 1894.
