| abstract | - In 2285, the Grissom, under Esteban's command, was assigned scientific study of the newly created Genesis Planet. Traveling aboard the Grissom were Starfleet Lieutenant Saavik, and David Marcus, one of the scientists who had developed the Genesis Device. While in orbit, however, they discovered the photon torpedo in which Captain Spock's body had been ejected from the USS Enterprise. In addition, sensors registered an animal lifeform on the surface, something previously thought to be impossible. A cautious man, Esteban refused to allow Saavik and Marcus to beam the tube aboard, quoting the regulation "nothing shall be beamed aboard until danger of contamination has been eliminated." When they subsequently requested to beam down to the planet's surface to investigate, Esteban was wary, stating that regulations only allowed such an action if the captain felt it was safe. Esteban eventually relented, however, allowing them to beam down, but continuously kept Starfleet advised of the mission's progress. Esteban and the entire crew were later killed when the Grissom was destroyed by a Klingon Bird-of-Prey commanded by Kruge, who was attempting to obtain and exploit the Genesis technology. (Star Trek III: The Search for Spock) In the script of Star Trek III, Captain Esteban is referred to as "late forties, a cautious Starfleet veteran." [1] Esteban was played by Phillip Richard Allen. While the creators of Star Trek III didn't leave any evidence of what Esteban's initials stand for, a non-canon source – the Star Trek: The Next Generation Officer's Manual (released for the FASA role-playing game) – lists a Decker-class destroyer, the USS Jonathan T. Esteban NCC-6005, purportedly named for this character. The Star Trek III novelization establishes that Esteban was an old friend of Admiral Kirk.

The Grissom was destroyed in orbit of the planet during a surprise attack by a Klingon Bird-of-Prey commanded by Commander Kruge, killing all aboard the vessel including Esteban.

- Il vascello di Esteban fu assegnato alla – politicamente – importante missione di esaminare il controverso pianeta Genesis, formatosi in seguito della disastrosa implosione della Reliant nella Nebulosa Mutara. Sotto il suo comando vi erano il nuovo ufficiale scientifico, il tenente Saavik ed il civile David Marcus, co-sviluppatore del Progetto Genesis. Esteban fu molto cauto in questa missione, assicurandosi di notificare alla Flotta tutti gli sviluppi prima di autorizzare il suo equipaggio ad iniziare uno studio su vasta scala del pianeta. Tuttavia, il pericolo era elevato, ed Esteban col suo intero equipaggio, eccezion fatta per Saavik e David Marcus, perì a causa dell’attacco sferrato dallo Sparviero Klingon del Comandante Kruge. (Star Trek III: Alla ricerca di Spock) Informazioni di retroscenaEsteban fu interpretato da Phillip Richard Allen. Mentre i creatori del film non indicarono per cosa stessero le iniziali del nome di Esteban, una fonte non-canon, il Star Trek: The Next Generation Officer's Manual , per il gioco di ruolo FASA, prevede una USS Jonathan T. Esteban NCC-6005, così denominata in onore di questo personaggio. La novelizzazione di Star Trek III: Alla ricerca di Spock dice che Esteban era un vecchio amico dell’Ammiraglio James T. Kirk.
