Events

The planet Cerberus is stricken by crop failure during Joanna McCoy's schooling there. Carter Winston uses his personal fortune to save the colony. (TAS: "The Survivor")

The date is approximate, given that Leonard McCoy's statement indicated that the event was "about 10 years ago" in relation to the current year of reference, 2269.

Alternate reality

The crew of the USS Enterprise become involved in the Mudd Incident, leading them to confiscate a K'normian trading ship. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
A month later, James T. Kirk violates the Prime Directive while saving Spock's life on Nibiru, and is demoted back to Starfleet Academy. Spock is transferred to the USS Bradbury. Christopher Pike convinces Alexander Marcus to allow Kirk to continue as his first officer. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
Stardate 2259.55: John Harrison coerces Thomas Harewood a member of Section 31 into bombing their facility under the Kelvin Memorial Archive, in London. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
At Starfleet Headquarters, Marcus convenes a summit to commence a manhunt for Harrison. Harrison attacks the summit, murdering Pike. Harrison escapes by transwarp beaming to the uninhabited Ketha Province of Qo'noS. Kirk receives permission to hunt down Harrison and to reinstate Spock as his first officer. Admiral Marcus orders Kirk to use 72 experimental long-range photon torpedoes to execute Harrison from orbit. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
Carol Marcus comes aboard the Enterprise. Montgomery Scott and Keenser resign, infuriated that they are not allowed to inspect Marcus's 72 torpedoes. Kirk appoints Pavel Chekov to replace him as chief engineer. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
The USS Enterprise's warp core breaks down just after it has passed the Neutral Zone. Kirk leads an away team with Spock and Uhura to find and arrest Harrison. They are intercepted by Klingons patrolling the region, who respond to negotiations by trying to murder Uhura. Harrison intervenes, killing the Klingons, and allows himself to be taken captive by Kirk. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
On a nearby planetoid, following Harrison's suggestion, McCoy and Marcus disarm one of the long-range torpedoes, and discover a cryotube, containing a fully-preserved human, is inside. Harrison reveals he is Khan Noonien Singh, and explains he tried to smuggle his crew from the SS Botany Bay in the torpedoes but was forced to flee when he was discovered. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
Meanwhile, in the Sol system, Scott, having been relayed coordinates by Kirk, discover the secret base where the USS Vengeance has been under construction. He boards the ship before it is launched to intercept the Enterprise. As the Vengeance, captained by Admiral Marcus, crosses the Neutral Zone, Marcus demands Khan be handed over immediately. The Enterprise instead escapes at warp. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
The Vengeance pursues the Enterprise and attacks. Both ships drop out of warp near Luna. Marcus beams up his daughter and orders the Enterprise's destruction, but Scott deactivates the Vengeance's weapons. Kirk and Khan get onboard the Vengeance with thruster suits, where they are received by Scott. Spock contacts the older Spock on New Vulcan, and after listening to his recollection of his confrontations with Khan Noonien Singh, orders McCoy to remove the cryotubes from the torpedoes. On the Vengeance's bridge, Khan overpowers Scott and Kirk, and kills Admiral Marcus. Khan, now in control of the Vengeance, requests his crew in exchange for Kirk, Scott and Carol. Spock obliges, and Khan beams back the three Enterprise crew members, and begins firing. The torpedoes beamed to the Vengeance detonate, crippling the ship. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
Both damaged ships begin falling to Earth. Kirk enters the radiation-flooded warp core, and is able to repair it, narrowly saving the Enterprise, but at the cost of his life. Khan deliberately pilots the Vengeance towards San Francisco, crashing it in the city center. Khan survives, and flees through San Francisco. However, he is apprehended by Spock and Uhura. Due to Khan's regenerative blood cells, a blood transfusion is conducted from Khan to Kirk. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
Two weeks later, Kirk is fully revived. Khan is placed back in his old cryotube once more. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
Nearly a year after stardate 2259.55: The USS Enterprise begins its five-year mission under Captain James T. Kirk. (Star Trek Into Darkness)
