The HMS New Zealand was a 22nd century Earth DY-732-class starship under the command of Captain Bob Lederman.
In 2135, the New Zealand was launched from the Sol system on a diplomatic mission to the planet Alderaan.
This vessel was among the list of ships that appeared on Captain Jean-Luc Picard's desktop monitor while he searched for "all Earth deep-space launches from 2123 until 2190 with destination in or near the Ficus sector" during an investigation of an SOS signal discovered in that sector in 2365. This vessel, however, did not fall within the parameters of his search, but was among the ships launched in that timeframe. (TNG: "Up The Long Ladder")
