The USS Prometheus (NCC-71201) was a Nebula-class starship in service in the 24th century, under the command of Lieutenant Commander Piersall.

In 2370, the Prometheus was assigned to assist Professor Gideon Seyetik in his project to re-ignite the dead star Epsilon 119. (DS9: "Second Sight")

The ships is Prometheus, a character in Greek mythology. It was said that Prometheus stole fire from the gods to benefit man, starting actual civilization, for which he received punishment. Prometheus' name literally translates to "he who thinks first"; he had a brother named Epimetheus ("he who thinks later").
