NEWPORT NEWS, Va., April 20 (UPI) -- The USS Enterprise, the first nuclear-powered aircraft carrier in the U.S. fleet, completed sea trials on its way to a return to service, the U.S. Navy said.
Sea trials during the weekend saw Enterprise leave the Northrop Grumman Newport News shipyard for the first time in nearly two years. Deceptive lighting exercises conducted last week were the first time the aircraft carrier shined its outside lights since 2007.
