The Adventures of the U.S.S. Kelvin We know so little about the U.S.S. Kelvin but it's impacted the Kelvin-Verse immensely. Hell, it's the reason it exists in the first place. But what about Kelvin Prime? How did this ship continue on in the Prime Universe? We know George Kirk lived to see James T. Kirk become the captain of the Enterprise but not much more than that. In this episode, we explore how this ship could have been built, how George and Winona met, and why Captain Robau is a badass.
