SS Robert Fox

El-Aurian refugee transport lost in the Nexus

One of two transport ships carrying El-Aurian refugees to Earth in 2293, destroyed by the Nexus energy ribbon before the Enterprise-B could reach it.

The SS Robert Fox is a Federation transport seen in Star Trek Generations. In 2293 it and its companion, the SS Lakul, are bringing El-Aurian refugees to Earth after the Borg devastated their homeworld.
Both ships are caught in the energy ribbon that marks the Nexus. The Enterprise-B, out on a publicity cruise with James Kirk aboard as a guest and not yet fully equipped, is the only ship in range.
The Robert Fox breaks up while the Enterprise is still closing, and all 265 people aboard are lost. The Enterprise manages to beam 47 people off the Lakul before it too is destroyed. Guinan and Tolian Soran are among those saved.
