The warp five engine was the result of many decades of research and development into making faster starships for Star Fleet, commissioned by the United Earth Space Probe Agency under the Warp Five program.
Before the program began, Human ships were limited to a speed just under warp 2.


Zefram Cochrane and Henry Archer were two of the main scientists involved in the warp five engine; they did much of their work at the Warp Five Complex on Earth.


The NX class was the first Earth starship to utilize the warp five engine.
