USS Franklin (CV-13) Listed 13 degrees after being hit, and survived.
The Franklin originated as a United Earth starship in Earth Starfleet service in the 22nd century, notably as the first Warp 4 prototype. (TOS movie: Star Trek Beyond)
This ship was one of a number of vessels named Franklin, for various persons and places that share that name, including Benjamin Franklin, a statesman of Earth history. Another ship in service in the year 2159 also shared this name, the Strider-class USS Franklin. (ST video game: Legacy)
After service to Earth as the prototype Warp 4 vessel, this vessel was eventually adopted into Federation Starfleet service, commanded by Balthazar M. Edison, following the founding of the United Federation of Planets. (TOS movie: Star Trek Beyond)
On 01 July 2164, Uraei accessed Starfleet Command and generated an order to have Mosel Thomas assigned to the Franklin. Thomas had been part of Admiral Ko Ji-hoon and Professor Aaron Ikerson's conspiracy attempt against Uraei. (ST - Section 31 novel: Control)
The Franklin disappeared in 2164 during a mission in the Gagarin Radiation Belt. Popular speculation ranged from the ship being captured by Romulans to being captured by a giant green hand. In truth, the Franklin was displaced by a wormhole, and crash-landed on the planet Altamid. Only Edison and two others survived. (TOS movie: Star Trek Beyond)
Kelvin timeline
In the Kelvin timeline, the Franklin was rediscovered in 2263 by Captain James T. Kirk and the survivors of the USS Enterprise crashed on the planet Altamid. By then, it was the home of Jaylah, who had placed it under a holographic cloak to hide the ship from Edison, who by then was known as Krall.
Repairing the Franklin, Kirk and the crew of the late starship Enterprise left Altamid and defeated Krall as he attempted to destroy Yorktown Station with a bio-weapon. After the incident, the ship crashed into Yorktown Station, with the surviving crew members disembarking there. The ship was later recovered by Starfleet and officially decommissioned.(TOS - Boldly Go comic: "Issue 5"; TOS movie: Star Trek Beyond)
The Franklin was the first starship of Earth's Starfleet to reach warp four. Among its armaments were pulsed phase cannons and spatial torpedoes, with polarized hull plating for defense. Among its vehicles were some shuttlepods and a PX-70 motorcycle. Some uniforms, jackets and medical equipment were left aboard. Also a collection of music, which included "Sabotage", was kept in a music player. (TOS movie: Star Trek Beyond)
"Children of the Sea" is a song by heavy metal band Black Sabbath, from their ninth studio album, Heaven and Hell (1980).
"Children of the Sea" was the first song written by the band following the 1979 departure of original lead singer Ozzy Osbourne. The song's melody and lyrics were composed by new singer, Ronnie James Dio, and the music was written largely by guitarist Tony Iommi.
After first meeting Iommi in 1979, Dio arrived at the guitarist's Los Angeles house for a jam session, and on that occasion the duo wrote the song. "Tony had this great riff he played me but nothing to go with it," recalled Dio. "I said, 'Gimme a minute' and went into the corner and started writing down the words." Iommi recalled the moment as a turning point in Black Sabbath's career, saying "It was exciting and challenging because we were doing things that quite frankly would have been beyond us with Ozzy. He wasn't that sort of singer." Iommi claims to still possess a very early demo recording of the song with Osbourne on vocals, though with a different melody and lyrics.
Once Dio had joined the band, a new demo recording of the song was produced featuring Geoff Nicholls on bass. The band's longtime bassist, Geezer Butler, was going through a divorce and wasn't able to commit to the band. "In the end though, Geezer sorted himself out and Geoff stayed with us to play keyboards", said Iommi.
The song was recorded live at Deeside Leisure Centre on 20 May 1980 and appears as the B-side of the single "Neon Knights".
"Children of the Sea" was ranked the 18th best Black Sabbath song by Rock - Das Gesamtwerk der größten Rock-Acts im Check.
