Kirk once held the rank of Admiral, but was degraded in 2285 because of disobeying a
superior officer in order to rescue his friend Spock on Genesis, but the Federation
council was so gratefull for Kirk's role in saving earth from the devastating effects
of an alien probe that it granted Kirk the captain's seat
of the second starship Enterprise. Kirk played an important
role in saving the historical Khitomer peace conference which lead to a peace treaty
with the Klingon Empire.
Kirk was aboard the Enterprise-B on her maiden voyage and
was believed killed saving the ship in 2294. Actually he remained in a temporal
anomaly called the Nexus until 2371 when he emerged at Veridian to help fellow captain
Jean-Luc Picard to defeat the obsessed scientist Tolian
Soran, which cost him his life. He was buried on a mountain top on planet Veridian III.
