The fictional characters Zefram Cochrane and Lily Sloane constructed the Phoenix (which was technically a prototype) from old nuclear missile parts.
The voyage of the Phoenix occurred in 2063, and its mission initiated the first communication between Earth and extraterrestrials when a Vulcan exploratory vessel detected the ship's warp signature. The Phoenix was seen in the motion picture Star Trek: First Contact.
In Star Trek: The Next Generation, the USS Phoenix was a Nebula starship seen in the episode The Phoenix.
For the actual Phoenix , see Phoenix (spacecraft).
