Summary
The starships ofStar Trekhave look many chieftain and almost all of them has emit a catch phrase when preparing the ship for Warp fastness . The second a spaceship jumps into warp is a minute full of endless possibilities . It seems fitting thatmost Captains would prefer to punctuate this minute with a memorable saying . The warp catchphrase has become such a staple thatStar Trek : Discoveryshowed the crewmembers eagerly anticipating what a new Captain would say ( and then poking fun at them if their chosen phrase did n’t quite make ) .
Captain Spock ( Leonard Nimoy ) was in charge of the USS Enterprise when it was a preparation vessel inStar Trek II : The Wrath of Khan , but he never uttered a warp catch phrase before ceding the center seat to Admiral James T. Kirk ( William Shatner ) . Perhaps this is because of his experience inStar Trek : Strange New Worldsseason 2 ’s premierewhen Lt . Spock ( Ethan Peck ) tell , " I would like the ship to go … now " after Lt . Erica Ortegas ( Melissa Navia ) ask him what his catchphrase will be . While that particular phrase might be a number too clunky to stick , here are 17 warp catchphrases that have been used by various spaceship Captains .

Star TrekCaptain catchphrases do n’t get much simpler than this . InStar Trek : Discoveryseason 1 , Captain Gabriel Lorca ( Jason Isaacs ) simply says " Go " just before theUSS Discovery engages its spore displacement hub drive . Everyone on the ship is nervous to apply the spore drive , butLorca delivers his concise command in a way that communicates his sureness and confidence . While it ’s not a particularly originative catchphrase , it help to get his meaning across . Taking into account statement Lorca ’s no - nonsense demeanor , it ’s potential he only could n’t be irritate to come up with a lengthier Warp catchphrase .
16"Execute"
Captain Saru - Star Trek: Discovery
headwaiter James T. Kirk made use of this catch phrase inStar Trek V : The Final Frontier , but he ’s not the onlyStar Trekcaptain to have said it . Saru ( Doug Jones ) tries this one as Captain of the USS Discovery to signal the employment of the spore crusade . Saru struggled to determine his utter Captain ’s catchphrase , and " Execute " just does n’t quite stick . It ’s not an elegant discussion , and it palpate clunky to shout when in the midriff of a potentially tense situation .
15"Carry On"
Captain Saru still has some workshopping to do when it come to his catch phrase .
After having previously taste " perform " out as his potential catchphrase , Saru then chooses to go with " bear on . " While this one arguably works better than " Execute , " it feels almost too passive . “Carry on " is not an authoritative command so much as it is a suggestionto keep doing what you ’re doing . Perhaps , nothing will ever top the simplicity and punchiness of Captain Picard ’s ( Patrick Stewart ) " Engage , " but it seems Captain Saru still has some workshopping to do when it get along to his catch phrase .
14"Let’s Go”
Captain Jonathan Archer - Star Trek: Enterprise
uncomplicated , and to the point , it seems meet that the first Captain of the Enterprise would say this to send his ship , the NX-01 , to Warp . Not so much a catchphrase as a thing Captain Archer ( Scott Bakula ) just enunciate sometimes , this does n’t feel like the order that it should be . He says it as if he ’s worked up to set off on this journeying through blank , but not necessarily as if he ’s commanding an entire ship full of people .
Star Trek has feature many spaceship named Enterprise . Along with Kirk and Picard , here ’s every Enterprise Captain from each movie and TV serial .
13"Take Us Out"
Captain James T. Kirk - Star Trek (2009)
In the2009Star Trekmovie , Chris Pine ’s Captain James T. Kirk utilize " Take us out , " but as will become evident from this list , Kirk does n’t have one fussy catchphrase . Kirk orders his crowd to initiate Warp Drive in many different ways , often specific to the situation he and his work party are in . This catch phrase , for example , works well when the USS Enterprise is bequeath a ship bobtail or otherwise heading out into the star . " Take us out"might be more appropriate for impulse engines ; it does n’t finger strong enough as a mastery to go to Warp .
12"That-a-Way"
Admiral James T. Kirk - Star Trek: The Motion Picture
Admiral James T. Kirk responds with this one at the end ofStar Trek : The Motion Picturewhen Mr. Sulu ( George Takei ) asks for a heading . As Kirk enjoin this , he gestures mistily at the stars , suggesting that there will be more adventure forward for Kirk and his USS Enterprise crew . Though this one did n’t exactly catch on , it would n’t make sense in every linguistic context anyway . However , here , it ’s thoroughgoing . As the send - off for the first feature - lengthStar Trekfilm , Kirk ’s phrase encapsulates the wonder of exploring the star topology .
11"Let’s See What She’s Got"
Captain James T. Kirk - Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home
Kirk ’s note feels like a meet end forStar Trek IV .
As the net words say in the filmStar Trek IV : The Voyage Home , this catchphrase works so well . Kirk and his crew have just successfully traveled back in clock time and redeem the Earth . This phrase not only hints that there are more adventures to come but also celebratesKirk ’s new USS Enterprise - Aand what she ’s able of . It ’s also reminiscent of the popular Scotty idiomatic expression , " I ’m give her all she ’s get ! " Kirk ’s line feels like a fitting closing forStar Trek IVand a agency to immortalise the many accomplishment of the ship called initiative .
10"Do It"
Captain Kathryn Janeway - Star Trek: Voyager
Star Trek : Voyager ’s Captain Janeway ’s ( Kate Mulgrew ) Warp catchphrase may be simple-minded , butshe say it with such a commanding air that it ’s impossible not to need to adopt her orders . While it ’s more than just the word " Go , " this one is still a basic catchphrase that serve to get the breaker point across without any flowery spoken communication . As the first female starship Captain to moderate her own show , it makes sense that Janeway would have a catchphrase that command sureness . Something about the means she says it also makes it feel like it must be obeyed , which works well for her job on the USS Voyager .
The Federation flagship , the USS Enterprise , has a long , fabled history , and each variation of the classic Star Trek ballistic capsule has its own unique look .
9"¡Dale!"
Captain Cristobal Rios - Star Trek: Picard
Spanish for " Go in front , " this wasCaptain Cristobal Rios ' ( Santiago Cabrera ) catchphraseof choice inStar Trek : Picard . While at one point , Rios also fondly mocks Picard by saying " Make it so , " his"¡Dale ! " is unmediated and effectiveregardless of whether his crew speaks Spanish or not . The way Rios says it communicate his meaning understandably enough , and it ’s a word that has the same punchy quality as Picard ’s " Engage . "
8"Punch It"
Captain Christopher Pike - Star Trek (2009)
" Punch it"denotes director J.J. Abrams’Star Warsfandom .
Used only by the version of Captain Christopher Pike ( Bruce Greenwood ) from 2009’sStar Trek , thiscatchphrase acts as an homage to theStar Warsfranchise . “Punch it " is Han Solo ’s preferred elbow room to tell Chewie to send the Millennium Falcon into hyperspace . It ’s not a spoilt Warp catchphrase , and it ’s always fun to see connections between two of skill fabrication ’s big franchises , but this phrase will be perpetually associated with Solo and the Millennium Falcon . A goodStar TrekCaptain should come up with their own catchphrase , not just borrow from another enfranchisement , but"Punch it"denotes director J.J. Abrams’Star Warsfandom .
