In 1986, Commanders Nyota Uhura and Pavel Chekov visited the base after traveling back in time from the 23rd century. The pair hoped to locate a suitable nuclear reactor from which to harvest anti-protons to recrystallize the dilithium crystals of the HMS Bounty. They found the USS Enterprise (CVN-65) docked at the base, and returned later to harvest the anti-protons. While Uhura was able to escape, Chekov was detained by the crew of the Enterprise, and was seriously injured attempting to escape. (TOS movie: Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home) The U.S. Navy closed the base in the late 1990s.

- In that year, two aircraft carriers, including the USS Enterprise (CVN-65), were docked at this base. Later that year, Pavel Chekov and Uhura were assigned by James T. Kirk to collect high energy photons emitted by uranium in a naval ship's nuclear fission reactor. The photons would be used for recrystalling the HMS Bounty's dilithium crystals. Upon finding a source for the photons in the main machine rooms of the Enterprise, they raided the ship at night for the photons. After a short interrogation and a futile escape attempt that ended in serious injury for Chekov, he was taken to Mercy Hospital. (Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home)
