Times to strike out, launching enterprise finally (4)
I believe the answer is:
eras
'times' is the definition.
(era is a kind of time)
I don't understand how the remainder of the clue works.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for eras that I've seen before include "Periods, ages" , "Epochs" , "Periods of time" , "Long and distinct periods of history" , "At least two times" .)
