[edit] Background
The Horizon-type is based on an early USS Enterprise design by Matt Jefferies and built by Greg Jein. That model has been seen as a desktop display in Benjamin Sisko's office in Star Trek: Deep Space Nine. According to the Star Trek Encyclopedia, the Horizon-type is actually the Daedalus-class, however, no on screen evidence supports it.

- DS9: (model in Sisko's office)
[edit] Apocrypha
- A Horizon-type starship (identified as a Daedalus-class starship) named the USS Lovell is prominently featured in (and on the cover of) the non-canon Star Trek: SCE novel Foundations.
- Star Trek: Legacy was the first Star Trek video game to feature a Horizon-type starship (again identified as Daedalus-class), in 2006.
