"Bluejay 4" was the callsign of the F-104 Starfighter piloted by Captain John Christopher. Captain Christopher's aircraft was scrambled to intercept and investigate an apparent UFO contact in 1969.

The "UFO" was actually the USS Enterprise, which had accidentally been thrown back in time. Spock warned Captain Kirk that the closing aircraft may be equipped with nuclear warheads and could pose a real threat. Kirk uses the tractor beam to hold the aircraft off, but the plane begins to break up under the force of the tractor beam, so Captain Kirk beamed it's pilot aboard the Enterprise. Christopher was saved, but the aircraft was demolished. It's wreckage fell back to Earth and landed in southern Nebraska. (TOS: "Tomorrow is Yesterday")
