USS Titan

In the fictional universe of Star Trek, the USS Titan was a Starfleet ship under the command of Captain William T. Riker to which he was transferred from the Enterprise-E circa stardate 56844.9 in 2379. Riker's prior tours of duty comprised fifteen years as Executive Officer under Captain Jean-Luc Picard aboard the Enterprise-D and Enterprise-E. It is unknown what class of ship the Titan is, as the vessel has yet to be shown on screen. The only other known crewmembers of the Titan are Deanna Troi Riker, who serves as the ship's counsellor and a starfleet graduated Wesley Crusher as an engineering officer. Pocket Books, publishers of licenced Star Trek fiction, has announced plans to publish original novels featuring the Titan and her crew, and there is speculation that the Titan could someday be the focus of a future Trek film or TV series. Although Riker and Troi will appear in the final episode of Star Trek: Enterprise in May 2005, it is not known whether any further information regarding the Titan will be provided.

Although the Titan has not been seen on screen, it has been identified by Decipher, Inc. as a Prometheus class starship for their Star Trek Customizable Card Game. However, the editors of the "Titan" series of novels have said that readers will get the chance to submit their own designs for the Titan's class, which will appear on the cover of a forthcoming Titan novel. The Titan is designated in the novels as a 450-metre long Luna-class explorer, with state-of-the-art science facilities. It is notable for the fact that less than 15% of the crew is human.
