Here's a little video of the restored Enterprise at the Smithsonian Air & Space Museum. This was shot and edited on my iPhone. I have more and will edit and post soon.
Designed in 1964, it still sets the standard today! IMHO, Someone should build a Constitution Refit\TMP Enterprise on the scale of the Original and Display it next to her!!!
That model is huge. For comparison, TNG originally had a six foot long model and found it too difficult to shoot, so had a four foot long model made that was used for most of the series. The TOS Enterprise must have been quite the chore to work with.
Twood be cool if the windows were small lcd screens with images of people walking around, in and out of the rooms. Simulating life aboard the ship, with a crew member occasionally walking up to the window and waving at the spectators outside.
I remember seeing this model years ago at my Junior College, Golden West Community College in Huntington Beach California. It was in 1972. It was part of a Sci-Fi, and Science fair. In addition to that model there was a model of the original ship used in the EDEN episode, and also interestingly enough there were some moon rocks from the Apollo 11 mission. The rocks were guarded by two marines.
@@JGG1701 Can you imagine? Maybe the person who had it has long been dead and their kid will find it in a box in the Attic. I can only imagine what that would be worth.
Beautiful 😍

No because its literally the model used for filming the show
A nice job! Glad to see the 'ol gal will be around for a long time to come.

I love the details, for instance the red/green port/starboard blinking lights are marbles with light behind them.
Thanks for posting this. I'm recreating the ship in Blender and it's good to have a clear view of everything including the working nacelles. 👍
