Star Trek: The most detailed 3D model of the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 ever! Deck 1-11
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 4 фев 2022
- So I have decided to revisit the iconic TOS Enterprise 1701 from Star Trek, but this time designing each deck one by one. This is an animation using Franz Joseph's schematic, Deck 1-11, a fully realized 3D model. Part 1 of 2.
The USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) was a 23rd century Federation Constitution-class starship operated by Starfleet. It was also the first ship to bear the name Enterprise with this registry.
Starfleet commissioned the Enterprise in 2245. Robert April is the Enterprise's first captain, succeeded by Christopher Pike. Pike leads the Enterprise for about a decade Throughout the first live-action, Captain James T. Kirk commands the ship on an exploration mission from 2264 to 2269
USS Enterprise NCC-1701 is a starship in the Star Trek media franchise. Initially, a vision of the potential for human spaceflight, the Enterprise became a popular culture icon and has repeatedly been identified as one of the best-designed and most influential science fiction spacecraft.

Ever since those deck plans became available, back in the 1970s, I've always wanted to see this ship model, in 3D. Thanks for sharing.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@Halfscreen ruclips.net/video/oJwdsUQl7Ps/видео.html would also be nice, and hopefully not too difficult!
..
I had a set of those blue prints as well. Love looking at them.
😎 cool
Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for including the Chapel! --Former US Navy Chaplain
No problem!
I was in junior high school and bought both the blueprint pack and the Star Fleet Manual at a book fair. I believe they are both in a box of stuff I've carted around for about forty-five years. This brought those blueprints to life. Thank you!
Very cool and thanks for watching! Old blueprints are awesome considering it was made before autocad.
I have the Ent-D blueprints… never letting them go.
😮
What an incredible feeling being walked through what I have thought of everyday for the past 50 years.
Wow. 50 years!
I’d have to pull my blueprints from storage to see where my crew quarters were located. As for designated station it varied between medical and sciences.
Fantastic presentation. Despite not matching perfectly with what's seen on screen in the episodes, Franz Joseph's deck plans are a phenomenal piece of work and it's great to see them in 3D
Glad you enjoyed it Matt and thanks for point out the acronym for me, I couldn't have figure that one out myself!
It'd be an amazing job to even fit the things on screen since most shows have their sets mostly in various different scales to begin with. This can only be done through a git model that gets cloned and forks the model to fit different episodes.
I like how it is so detailed that they include a Laundry Room....It makes sense. We had a Laundry Tent, on our base, when I was TDY to Saudi.
Great video, love the deck plans. I find it amusing the 'head' (toilet) is behind the view screen. Can you imagine looking out into space and just behind is someone on the loo. lol
I waited all my childhood to see the ol' 1701 in 3d, and you made my dreams come true after 30 years! THANK YOU!!!
Glad you enjoyed it! I'm surprised it wasn't done before when the schematic has been around since 1973. .
Stick into a game engine and walk around.
@@brodriguez11000 I'm getting close to being an old timer, grew up with Atari & Nintendo, so not sure how to do that, but I imagine that would be fun, Lol.
Always strange to me that the science labs would be located directly below the bridge. It made more sense for conference rooms, library computer banks, observation areas, a lounge for bridge crew, and perhaps even the captain's quarters to be located there. Considering that labs might be conducting dangerous experiments, placing them so close to the primary control center of the ship just seems bizarre. It might make more sense to put such labs in the secondary hull.
I was thinking the same thing. Having been aboard several Navy ships, the layout of the Enterprise seems counter-intuitive to me.
Yeah, a lot of the positioning doesn't really make sense.
They have the infirmary as a taurus, the center of which is the battle bridge.
The recreational deck is also a taurus, the center of which is the main computer system.
And right beside the junior officers quarters? Photon torpedo banks. Sleep tight!
I'd've imagined offices on the 2nd deck. Like, the XO's office... an office for R&D, an office for diplomacy. Perhaps a conference room, and special guest quarters.
The computer would make more sense near engineering, or perhaps bridge. Like, right under or above one of those. Or at the very least, at the center of all the science labs.
I like the idea of the ship having a large astrophysics lab with a large telescope and all that. But the idea that it would be pointed in the aft direction to me is what makes no sense. If you had such a lab with a large telescope to do astronomical observations, it would make more sense to have it pointed ahead in the direction of travel and toward the star systems that you might be traveling to. Not away from it!!
It probably reflects the ship's mission of exploration. The science being done was considered a primary executive concern. Tucking it away in some other part of the ship, requiring a longer route to travel for the bridge crew, probably wouldn't align as well with that mission.
As an sci-fi fan, the "Connie" was the first ship I loved. Thanks for showing it, in all her glory! Looking forward to the conclusion!
Thanks for watching.
When I was a boy my Dad bought me the illustrated Star Trek STAR FLEET TECHNICAL MANUAL by Franz Joseph, published in 1975. It is still amazing to look at.
The most beautiful spaceship ever.
I professionally recreate Star Trek ships in various video games. As of late I spend all my building time in Xbox Space Engineers. I strive for perfection and with alot of time and effort I achieve just that. My V3 Designs are my definitive products, and focus on completely accurate exteriors and internals. I'm currently working on my V3 TOS Enterprise right now, and videos like this is just what I need! Thanks you!!
Thank. Due to time and resources, I can't create an accurate representation of the ship, but I tried.
Are you planning on releasing something to the general public? A VR walkthrough product would be amazing.
You can tell that this person put a lot of work in which is great, unfortunately a lot of things about the Franz Joseph stuff just doesn't make a lot of sense, like putting lounges in the center of the ship, which is where you would put stuff that you would want to protect from battle damage or collision.
In the early 80s I collected fan produced floorplans of several of those ships. The dreadnaught was my favorite. Those 1975 blueprints and the tech manual were gold back then :)
Yeah. In a days of cad files, seeing hand drawing blueprint is golden.
Thank you for posting this. I’ll have my bearings when next I watch the Original Series.
I have a first print of that Franz Joseph book. Had it as a little kid, like 5-6. I don't know where it came from. My dad had it for some reason and I took it. I spent hours comparing the various ship classes, uniforms, weapons, etc. It was hard for me to interpret all of it, but it was the coolest thing in the world. It made me believe Star Trek was real. There was an official manual! Proof! When I moved into my first apartment "The Manual" was a practical bible that my roommates and I would ritualistically acknowledge before watching every nightly episode at 11:00. We'd all sing the theme song in operatic style at the top of our lungs, and any guests needed to as well, house rules. The old lady next door hated us. Anyway, still have that book boxed, one of my oldest possessions. Need to find it.
Great video, this puts a lot of context to what I remember from the diagrams.
Thanks. It seem like many of the older fans of TOS still keep their Franz Joseph book. I have a lot of respect for the designers of the era.
As a ten-year old, I enjoyed these drawings as much as I enjoyed the rest of "The Making of Star Trek" by Steven E. Whitfield and Gene Roddenberry, and I took special delight in the drawings, as I had finished my seventh grade drafting class, and these increased my appreciation for the work Franz Josephs accomplished. Decades later after being in the USNavy and working in the shipyards for a couple more decades, I completely understood the drawings, at best, would be a snapshot in time detailing the ship as it was in one iteration and understanding upgrades, refits and minor changes would cause some lazer variations could surprise the actual users. To me, this was the canon behind the canon and would, of course, be open to to change.
I liked the simplicity of the original Enterprise. All the other ships in later Star Trek shows seemed a bit too complicated. They were still amazing, but I gotta respect the simple but efficient design this ship had
She's a beauty inside and out. 🖖
I have a copy of the first Starfleet Technology manual. Love it. Has tons of information.
I finally got a copy of the 1973 blueprints and this is still so cool to actually visualize!!
Glad i can help
I was seven when Star Trek aired. I LOVED the show and was captivated by the science behind it. From that time on, I felt NCC-1701 was the most beautiful starship I had ever seen. It's simple and utilitarian, yet elegant and sleek, and it's my favorite ship to this day. This walkthrough is one of the most amazing I've seen. Thank you for doing this. I'm astounded and enchanted by this video! I kept pausing at every section to soak it all in.
Yeah, I got many of my audiences double checking my work for some reason, thanks for the compliment. 😁
I got the Franz Joseph plans when they came out, like 1973. Still have em. Except for the bowling alley, it all holds up still and I love this video!
If I ever decide to recreate such a ship in Space Engineers, this is gold.
Marvelous work.
Seeing all those spaces it was fun to imagine living amongst all those less heroic spaces away from the camera lens.
Throughout the various ship's adventures all those invisible crew working the labs, fabrication areas, and moving through their day to day life patterns.
If I understand correctly our content creator turned a 2D map of the ship into a 3D model we are seeing here, correct ? vey impressed sir, thanks, this video will be used in my Star Trek table top RPG, literally exactly what I needed
Yes, exactly, I took Franz design and created a 3D version.
@@Halfscreen what software are using to create these 3D models on screen?
@@TonyP7007 3DS max.
@@Halfscreen Thank you!
I have that blueprint book. I’ll have to follow along with it and watch this again.
I love that back/sideways angle of the ship. Such a beautiful design.
never stop. I love starships, especially the details.
Very impressive! Interesting how many staircases there are in the Enterprise, but you never see one on screen.
It was good fun breaking out my 1973 plans (same ones you have) and following along!
Seem like you ain't the only one with the blueprint.
I remember the first time we saw the chapel onboard the Enterprise was in the episode 'Balance of Terror' where the Enterprise had to deal with a Romulan Warbird that was attacking and destroying the Federation outposts along the Neutral Zone.
Thank you, good sir.
Very welcome
The most detailed 3d model of the Enterprise I've seen was in a mod for Avorion on steam, wherein they layered in every bulkhead and sheet of armor. That said, this one's pretty cool.
Beautifully done. Can't wait to see the bowling alley lol
Coming soon!
I bought the plans when they came out and during college Xmas break back in around 81, I built a model of it out of balsa wood 1:1 scale to the drawings.. Still have over 40 years later! Came out great...
02:40 Actually, way way back in the mid-1960s, when Gene Roddenberry was first coming up with the idea of Star Trek, he wrote about how the primary hull can separate from the secondary hull in case of emergencies. He also wrote about the holodeck. The original series never used either idea, primarily because of budgetary and technical limitations. Older Star Trek fans like myself spent years dreaming about these possibilities until a brand new series called Star Trek - The Next Generation brought these exciting possibilities to life.
The holodeck was in TAS.
I recall reading that the primary hull was designed to be aerodynamic because that part of the ship was originally intended to land on a planet while the secondary hull stayed in orbit. However, doing that for most episodes would have slowed down the pace of the show. When the idea of the matter "Transporter" came along, it allowed a much faster change of scenes, getting the crew down to a planet in just seconds instead of minutes of film time. And that is why Roddenberry used it. Beam me up Scotty!
Outstanding presentation. Well done. The 1973 Blueprints are amazing. Well thought out, very detailed, and well executed. I still have mine.
Glad you liked it. The old blueprints still hold up.
I used to have the paper blueprints .
They came in a plastic pouch . I bought them at the bookstore .
I gave them out when i moved once along with star trek plastic models and books and other star trek collectibles . I still have a few props and books on startrek .😊
I still find it funny that we never got to see the T.O.S Enterprise's cargo bays though we got to see them in the refit when Kirk and Scotty came aboard in The Motion Picture.
Your efforts are DEEPLY impressive and you are to be commended for your attention to detail. As a kid, I had those blueprints. I took them out of the vinyl pouch with the single snap on the front and unfolded each sheet with the greatest of care. Seeing them brought to life after all of these years I found myself having to remember to breath as you went through each deck - naming the different areas - MOST of which I actually knew before they were mentioned and/or the section titles faded into view!
You have done a major service to the living memory of these Constitution class ships, and you will find that I am not the only one that your considerable effort will move to the depth that you have me. Though I am not clear at this moment of the specific "how", but you, Sir, are to be richly rewarded. Though I feel that is not the reason that you brought this into a sharable reality for others to enjoy, but when "love" (of what you apparently do so well) is combined with such an insightful and caring "effort" (your obvious willingness to take massive action) as evidenced by what you have done here, life has a way of ensuring that your status is elevated and the potential for needs you may have to simply be eliminated.
Should you allow such a thing to take place, in the near future we will have the opportunity to speak.

Really, thank you, Max, it's just a labor of love really and I appreciate the compliment. I'm pretty sure I'm not the only person who had to try to design the vessel based on Franz's blueprint, but I couldn't find it based on my research.
You've out done yourself and I can't wait for part two. Thanks for your work.
Thanks for watching Mickey!
WOW !!!! Fantastic job. My deepest congratulations.
Thank you so much 😀
5:00 I've always wondered where the toilets are. THANK YOU
I built this thing so many times in Minecraft to a 1to1 scale that I can tell you, she is a lot larger than you'd think given the dimensions listed for her. You should check out the new on being made on the TrekCraft minecraft Star Trek game server. Those folks are nailing the details out of the park. Looks like you are actually walking on the ship. Amazing work.
What a magnificent and wonderful experience, to revel in your creation of my absolute favorite starship from all of science fiction! My admiration for your artistry and love of the Star Trek universe is great! EXCELLENT work! May you Live Long and Prosper 🖖🏼
Glad you enjoyed it Jeffrey!
Kick ass!!! Fine, detailed, work.
I love this. I hope a similar segment for the Enterprise-Refit/Enterprise-A would be some time in the future.
Thank you again. I very much appreciate your efforts to bring us such fascinating looks!
My pleasure and thanks for watching Elzar!
This is beyond awesome- Mr. Joseph’s designs brought to life. I’m always amazed by what talented people like you can achieve with digital artistry. This video made me very happy and for that I sincerely thank you.
Thanks for the compliment!
I just love my Starship Enterprise, NCC-1701.
Super impressive
Absolutely fantastic work. I’ll be forever referencing this video. Each of your videos are first class.
Thanks for watching.
Great job! I've always wanted to see the decks of the original USS Enterprise.
Hope you enjoyed it Randy!
I was about to ask about the secondary hull, Thank you look forward to more of your work it’s awesome
If you haven't seen it.
ruclips.net/video/pCRaq-DV-po/видео.html
I have these plans. Very nice.
Amazing stuff. Thanks for doing this!
No problem!
I found a copy of those Franz Joseph schematics in the library back in the 1980s and looked them over. I noticed the 'saucer separation' feature described but had interpreted it as a kind of 'once done can't easily be undone' explosive maneuver.
Yep. Unlike the Galaxy class, the Constitution class' saucer separation required a repair dock to reconnect.
They used that feature at least once in the Star Trek movies.
Didn't you see it done ?
Spectacular job. Thank you
Many thanks!
Damn, this is awesome..... I just geeked out... Thank you sir!
No problem and thanks for watching.
What an amazing job. Thank you for providing this in depth look at this iconic ship. I will be rewatching this video several times, and sharing with others. I look forward to part 2.
Glad you enjoyed it!
This was really well done. I used to have most of the blueprints for Star Trek, this really brings them to life. Now I can hope for a version so I can walk through wearing my occulas 2
The plans did make it on screen in the Star Trek movies, most famously V'ger's computer scan. But you see it in 2 and when we see Spock's quarters on the bridge screen in #3.
Fascinating
These videos are great. I've been watching Star Trek since it started in the 60s. It makes so much more sense now that I can figure out what is happening where. Thanks.
Glad you like them!
Holy cow, you're awesome Talent led me to see to Enterprise the way I've never seen it before. Thank you for taking the time and energy . Much much much appreciated!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The original Enterprise NCC-1701 is one of the most beautiful ship designs in the history of sci-fi.
Extraordinary. Exceptional presentation.
Glad you liked it!
You get to enjoy seeing the Enterprise saucer section separate in film with the Star Trek Continues series right here on RUclips.
During the self destruct of the Enterprise refit, i noticed that the warpcore wasn't triggered to overload. Kinda looked like the emergency banks exploded then triggered a cascade that took out most of the forward saucer section.
Majestic Presentation 🔴Thank you so much🟠Star Trek Lives On!🟢👨🏻🚀
Awesome! Looking forward to the next video!
Coming soon!
This is just awesome, just awesome, can't wait for part 2.
So fun! I used to pour over those blueprints in the 70s! BTW, its not strange that there are some differences between the prints and the show -- the prints are for the original Constitution design -- each ship built would have its own modifications. Oh, and I think you missed the science station on the bridge -- it appeared in several episodes ;)
Good points. In fact it makes sense to assume that the interiors of all 12 Constitution Class ships may perhaps have had some significant differences from each other!
This video makes the ship feel real. I could imagine being aboard
I actually got these blueprints for my birthday one year back in the 70s. I think I was 10 or 11 years old. And I still have them! They live right next to my TNG Tech manual.
This is stunning. Huge thanks for creating it!
Glad you like it!
This is really well done. Great job putting all this together!
Glad you enjoyed it!
0:33 Ah, my favorite two Captains: Christopher Pites and James T. Kurtz. May their names live on forever.
13:28 yes !! freshwater storage ! long story short this video won me a beer bet !
Wow! This is amazing, it's like I envisioned as a 12 year old when the blueprints first came out. Thanks for all the work.
Glad you liked it!
Impressive! I've been hoping to see something like this based on the Franz Josef blueprints ever since I first purchased them in a Cole's bookstore in or around 1977.
Wow! I didn't know how many of my audiences actually have a copy of the blue print back in the 1977.
As a young teen I used to study these and next gen plans and designed my own ships in star trek style. Now decades later I'm an architect and teacher and I can say trek was one of the things that inspired me to be I tested in spatial, 3D design.
What I always found strange though, is than on most decks on the Constitution class the living quarters and spaces are clustered in the center of the deck, and often unappealing utility rooms are located at the perimeter. So they're locking the crew into windowless rooms, and give the prime real estate on the perimeter of the ship near the outer hull to rooms that don't need windows at all. Why on earth they didn't reverse this I find, as a designer myself, really weird. If they had flipped this and clustered utility rooms in the center of each deck and moved crew quarters to the perimeter, the vast majority of crew quarters could have had a nice window or two looking out into space. Now the ship feels very claustrophobic. Even the recreational deck of deck 8 has this weird configuration. Utility on the edge with no windows at all, and the recreation rooms in the center with no option to have any windows. Again imagine if this was flipped, so the entire perimeter of the recreational areas could be full of windows looking out into space...
For a ship of exploration this ship is very closed off to the outside. :)
What you see on TV and what you see on a 3D model doesn't always line up. I always wondered if they consulted with an architect when designing these ships.
I await with anticipation for the completion of the tour...
Very nice job. I see you've put quite an effort into researching. I'm already excited to see the second part.
Working on it!
I hope to see videos on the other Starship classes that carried the name Enterprise from the NX Class to the Constitution Refit Class to the Excelsior Refit Class to the Ambassador Class to the Galaxy Class to the Sovereign Class and other ship classes like the Defiant Class.
Excellent video!! My favorite ship!
Thank you very much!
I love how the OG Enterprise from the 60's has a comparable layout to what modern offices and businesses are going for, with a very wide layout with lots of open space.
I'm sure it was a combination of budget and that late 60's design philosophy when they did this in the show, but it's cool to see that decades later it has many real world mirrors.
At least you went with the 'actual' Enterprise, and not the alternate universe CBS one.
WOW! Please more of that! I can only imagine how much work and effort it takes to make such a video. But I'd highly enjoy it if you made such videos for the Enterprise D and E too!
It's a lot of work, that why I split it into two parts.
You don't see the second part of the ship in this video just the saucer section he did say that in the video that there would be a part two
Outstanding!!! 👍🏾👍🏾👍🏾
Thank you! 👍
This is beautiful.
This is just marvelous. A vast improvement over the original video! ☺
Thanks a lot 😊
Beautiful job! Well done! You're not the first to attempt to build the whole ship from Franz Joseph's plans!
Thank you very much, however I have looking for the Franz Joseph on RUclips and can't seem to find it, but thanks for watching.
There were several decks done for a mod for STV:Elite Force game. The Argass Effect mod and the Reck Deck mod for EF's multiplayer
@@Halfscreen I did 3D virtual reality modeling of the whole ship using the Franz Joseph deck plans.
@@brookestephen Wow. that must have taken a lot of work!
@@Halfscreen it was a long time ago, and I never finished. Can you walk around in your model in real time?
Fascinating.
Top quality stuff here
I love the idea that the Enterprise did have a battle bridge deep in the middle of the saucer, but Kirk never used it, because Kirk had the biggest swinging pair in all of Starfleet.
Dude, this was awesome beyond words! Thank you for posting this!
Glad you enjoyed it!
Dude, do people really use that word.
I thought it was only something that Valley girls would use on the West Coast surf's up dude
FANTASTIC!
Thank you! Cheers!
i always wanted to see something like this great job
