Service history and disposition

In the 29th century, Temporal Fleet Command had the Tempus protect the timestream against temporal incursions. Captain Vakek was in frequent contact with his counterpart from the USS Poh, Captain S'eeris. When the USS Pastak called for reinforcements, the Tempus and the Poh set course for the Na'kuhl star system to assist. (STO - Agents of Yesterday short story: "Temporal Front")

Poh and Tempus arrived in the system on stardate 560704.48 and joined the battle between the Pastak and a historical vessel from the 25th century Khitomer Alliance against radical Na'kuhl, led by the Acheros-class battlecruiser NV Golden Shield. The four allied vessels succeeded in defeating the extremists, and the historical vessel returned to the year 2410. (STO - Future Proof mission: "The Temporal Front")

First Splinter timeline

Map of the Typhon Expanse.

In the 29th century of the First Splinter timeline, Admiral Jenishan zh'Crivash was the head of Starfleet's Temporal Activities Division. In that century, zh'Crivash took the unusual step to leave her office on Earth and travel to the Typhon Expanse aboard the Tempus. While aboard the Tempus, the admiral transmitted an emergency retrieval signal to the USS Relativity, on an assignment to study a Class-B temporal incursion in the 13th century.

Admiral zh'Crivash's fleet of Wells-class ships was destroyed by Devidian nagas. The Devidians devoured all realities sprung from the First Splinter, threatening all of existence itself. (ST - Coda novel: Moments Asunder)
