The ECS Horizon was a J-class cargo ship that was commissioned in 2102 and remained in service for over 50 years (as of 2153), it is owned by the Earth Cargo Authority and is currently commander by Captain Paul Mayweather Jr. It has a top speed of Warp 2, a maximum hauling limit of 30,000 metric tons and two plasma cannon turrets and obsolete hull plating for defenses.
There is a rumor among engineers that Zefram Cochrane, the legendary inventor of Earth Warp technology, personally autographed the inside of her warp casing. One of the people who believed it was Commander Charles Tucker III. (ENT episodes: "Fight or Flight", "Fortunate Son", "Horizon")
