  • Enterprise NX-01 ran along a protostar a week before the incident at P'Jem. (ENT: "The Andorian Incident")
  • 19^th – Humanity makes first contact with the Andorians; the Andorian Imperial Guard finally corroborates the existence of a Vulcan surveillance listening post at P'Jem. (ENT: "The Andorian Incident")
• August
  • The crew of Enterprise prevent the crew of the ECS Fortunate initiating hostilities between the Nausicaans and Earth Cargo Service freighters. (ENT: "Fortunate Son")

• December
  • Enterprise has an encounter with the Ferengi, though the name of the species is not discovered until 2364. (ENT: "Acquisition"; TNG: "The Last Outpost")
  • Enterprise NX-01 arrives on a planet to scavenge material from a derelict Kantare supply ship. They offer the castaways repairs and ultimately rescue Ezral and Liana. (ENT: "Oasis")
  • Captain Jonathan Archer is instrumental in the liberation of Detention Complex 26 on Tandar Prime which later gives him a reputation of legendary proportions as an invincible warrior. (ENT: "Detained", "Desert Crossing")
• Other Earth first contacts this year include the Akaalis, the Axanar, the Coridanites, the Eska, the Kantare, the Malurians, the Menk, the Valakians, and the Xyrillians. (ENT: "Fight or Flight", "Unexpected", "Civilization", "Dear Doctor", "Shadows of P'Jem", "Rogue Planet", "Oasis")

The episodes "Silent Enemy" and "Cold Front" are placed in reverse airing order in this timeline. The reason for this is because "Silent Enemy" is explicitly said to occur on September 1, whereas "Cold Front" is said to happen four months, four weeks, and six days since Enterprise left Earth. As the Rigel X events ended sixteen hours before the April 16th log entry in "Broken Bow", and this occurred three days into the mission by "Marauders", launch was therefore April 12 or 13, which puts "Cold Front" on either September 8 or 9.
