History[]
Following the destruction of the previous Newton in the year 2258, Starfleet launched a successor ship of the same class and higher registry, which helped save the Vulcans from obliteration at the hands of the Romulans in the Battle of Ceti Alpha V. (TOS - Legacy of Spock comic: "Part 4")
During the war between the Federation, Klingon Empire and Romulan Star Empire in the trilateral Neutral Zone, starting on stardate 2262.45, the Newton (II), now with the registry number of its predecessor, NCC-1727, served as a Federation science vessel. (ST video game: Fleet Command)
