Ensign Travis Mayweather was born a space boomer in the year 2126 on board the long-haul freighter, the ECS Horizon.

Early Life

In 2137, Travis's father, Paul Mayweather, Sr. gained clearance from the Thelasian Trading Confederacy to do business on the Morianne-Deneva run, a profitable shipping lane.

During a cargo run set up by a Thelasian trader named Maxim Sen, the Horizon's cargo, supposedly high-tech solar panels, was confiscated by local authorities. Sen had apparently been using the Horizon to smuggle weapons throughout the Confederacy. Although no charges were pressed against Mayweathers father, he lost a large amount of money in the process. (ENT novel: Rosetta)

Starfleet

Upon reaching adulthood, Travis realized that he wanted more than a freight-haulers life, but he still wanted to live among the stars and see the galaxy. Travis joined Starfleet against his family's wishes because he felt that that would be the best way for him to fulfill his ambitions. Travis was assigned as helmsman of the first Warp-5 capable vessel, Enterprise, upon her launch in 2151. (ENT episode & novelization: Broken Bow)

During the Xindi mission in 2153, Travis went on a mission with several MACOs, including his cabin-mate Corporal Hideaki Chang, to destroy a Xindi mining and refueling depot in a nebula near the Kaletoo system. (ENT novel: Last Full Measure)

In 2154 when the Enterprise was within the designated shipping lanes of the Thelasian Trading Confederacy, Travis--with the help of Lieutenant Malcolm Reed and a pair of Bynars--discovered a legal precedent that allowed the Horizon to collect on monies lost on illegal siezures at a monthly compounded interst rate of 15%. Travis's researches also uncovered evidence used in the prosecution of Maxim Sen for multiple crimes against the Confederacy. (ENT novel: Rosetta)

In mid 2155, Travis left the Enterprise and took an assignment on the NX-class Discovery (NX-04). The Discovery was later destroyed over Berengaria VII by the Romulans though he and most of the crew managed to get to the escape pods before the ship was self-destructed. Afterwords, he was assigned to the USS Yorktown (NCC-108) in early in 2156. He would stay on the Yorktown until he transferred off to the Atlantis (NX-05) a few months later. Mayweather would make lieutenant during his assignment on the Atlantis. In June 2156, the Atlantis was destroyed over Tau Ceti IV via self-destruct to prevent capture. Travis and most of the crew did however make it to the escape pods. (ENT novel: The Romulan War: Beneath the Raptor's Wing)

Travis served onboard Enterprise throughout the conflict with the Romulan Star Empire until her decommisioning in 2161, shortly before the formation of the United Federation of Planets. Mayweather turned down an offer for a position on board another starship. He felt that Archer would be offered another command on a new warp 7 vessel, and wanted to remain available for assignment to that ship. (ENT episode: "These Are the Voyages...")
