Every ship in Starfleet has a ''registry number'' which is used to identify it in computer records and the like. Most such numbers begin with the prefix '''NCC''', which stands for Naval Commission Contract. In other words, a ship's registry number derives from the number assigned to the paperwork which authorized its construction. Experimental or prototype vessels may instead have the prefix '''NX''' (Naval Experimental). Civilian vessels use a plethora of designations. | Every ship in Starfleet has a ''registry number'' which is used to identify it in computer records and the like.
