In the book, the Enterprise is described as having two destruct systems. Scott's Guide to the Enterprise explains the auto-destruct sequence in greater detail. While the exact method of destruction is not described, it can be inferred from dialog that it is an instantaneous overload of the warp core triggered in engineering. It would appear from Kirk's line in Star Trek The Motion Picture that Starfleet has a guideline for immediate self destruction in the form of General Order 2005. However in this instance, the sequence was sixty seconds long, rather than 30 seconds. At this point the computer would cancel the sequence.įor the refit Constitution class starships that was seen in the first six movies, the self-destruct sequence was basically the same. He would then repeat the abort auto-destruct command.
#Code zero zero zero destruct zero code
He would then give the abort auto-destruct command followed by the code - which was One-Two-Three-Continuity. If it was to be cancelled, the Captain would identify himself to the computer. However, after the five second point had been reached, the destruct sequence could not be stopped. The self destruct sequence could be cancelled at any time from thirty seconds down to five seconds. The Captain would again identify himself, and give the final code, which was Zero-Zero-Zero-Destruct-Zero.Īt that point, the computer would begin a thirty second countdown. It would then request the final code from the Captain. The computer would then announce that the sequence had been completed and engaged. Then the Chief Engineer would then give the third part of the sequence - which was One-B-Two-B-Three. The First Officer would then identify himself to the computer, and provide the second part of the sequence - which was One-One-A-Two-B. The Captain would then identify himself to the computer, and provide the first code - which was One-One-A.
The sequence on the original Constitution class vessel was begun by tying in the ship's main computer to the bridge. The way that the auto destruct sequence has been activated on starships has changed over time, as was the way the destruct sequence was carried out.
