I think this ship shows why the romulans are so protective of their cloaking technology. So much effort and so many systems are devoted to keeping this ship invisible, and it's still so small. Meanwhile the romulans can and do easily cloak ships that are significantly larger with only one system
The fact starfleet knows how to make cloaking devices anyway and just *doesn't use or prototype them because of a treaty* , to the point they go back to 21st century stealth tech just to uphold it, shows how much the Federation values its diplomatic integrity.

The bit I find disheartening is that Lower Decks seems to have writers that make interesting additions to the lore and understand the series better than the writers for the other modern shows.
The task of intelligent parody and homage requires LD writers and designers to have a much deeper knowledge of Trek lore than pretty much any other show.
@@TheMrPeteChannel I mean, it makes sense - those are the parts of the timeline that the characters have actually lived through. Also, most live action Trek (just over 50% of all episodes) is from the 90s.
This is I think a thinly veiled reference to the black ships from Warhammer 40k. It's a small but formidable stealth ship that traverses the galaxy looking for people with a "mutation" to bring them to a central location.
A scary black gothic ship rising out of a glowing hole in a space storm, it's poorly lit lower decks filled to the brim with societies maimed, mutated, and unwanted. Gee whatever could this be a reference to? Lol
I've always wondered why we don't see more Andorian, Vulcan, or other Federation world influences in the design of Starfleet vessels. Pretty much all of them have the Earth aesthetic of circular or ovoid primary hull, smaller engineering hull, and nacelles.
Probably because Starfleet ended up largely standardizing things where most of the designs influence each other and keep the same basic profile and it's only when one steps pretty far away from it that things diverge. At the same time, having a relatively similar silhouette makes it easier to identify as ship as a Federation ship
one explanation could be that Earth being the least advanced of the founding members meant their ships were more readily compatible with the other species' technology with the aesthetic carry over being a side-effect plus the fact that Earth was the only founding member to commit the entirety of its naval resources to the UFP Starfleet, and that humans are at least a plurality of personnel, might have given them a dominant voice in determining the design language of Starfleet
@@amiscellaneoushuman3516 tell that to Vulcans who prefered to use those warp rings instead of nacelles :P Pride was strong both in vulcans and andorians (but sure vulcans would deny it :D).
I was always under the assumption that the philosophy of the Federation (exploration, diplomacy) was somehow related to its ship design. Whereas most ships of other races would be cheaply constructed and built to accommodate weapons Starfleet ships would be built for speed and to accommodate sensors and passengers.
Most of the Hero Ships in the various series tend to be multi role ships, able to trade fire with known adversaries, carry out exploration, emergency relief missions and diplomacy. Dedicated combat ships, exploration/science vessels and hospital ships all depart from the usual silhouette.
After learning it was an Andorian ship, I could see that general outer hull aesthetic, a central hull with nacelles on the sides, much like their ancient warships before the Federation.
i can understand Starfleet continuing the warp 10 experiment. even if it couldn't be used safely by organic life a automated ship or probe could map out the entire Galaxy in detail. every system, planet, civilization, shipyard, fleet deployment and resources everywhere would be known in almost real time and multiple high resolution scans. even a volunteer pilot would be worth the risk if they could reverse the mutation like the Doctor.
Interesting that it was meant to be Andorian. I can kinda see it. Also, this video is how I found out there's an officially licensed Trek TTRPG, rather than just that unofficial one from the 70s.
I like to think Pike was a big inspiration for the creation of Division 14. His sacrifice and subsequent radiation poisoning probably led to an outcry to help members of Star Fleet so they could have more than being trapped in a giant pacemaker/iron lung for the rest of their lives.

But Nobody thought of Brain Infaces in 66 it seems, like they had in VOY - Lifesigns or the Visor in general
@@UCannotDefeatMyShmeat I think the real world answer is that this episode aired in 1966 while Hawking started using a wheelchair in 1968 and lost his voice in 1985, where he started to use that speech computer. At first he was also able to use a button to control it, until his hands became to weak. Interesting tidbit I found while reading up on that, after that, he used a infrared sensor attached to his glasses, and when he would tense his cheek muscles, that would make the glasses move around a little, wich the sensor could detect, replacing the button.
@Corbomite_Meatballs NOooOoOoOO! I still need that Unverse Class Enterprise which is a lockbox ship. I've spent over 500 bucks to try to get this ship and it's a no go still.
"Hey we want to covertly transport people injured during secret tests to our hospital planet. We need some super common courier ship nobody would bat an eye at." "Nah, you can have this hard to detect and rare ship that will be raising suspicion everywhere it is seen."
A thing about Star Trek i always find interesting is the scaling... i mean alot of people express the size of most ships to be like flying continents... when really thats grossly exaggerated except for some Borg ships. Like the one hiding in Jupiter. This ship though being only 200 meters in length and clearly is less than 200 meters wide can actually land on any standard running track. As the straights are 100 meters each as well as the corners entire loop is 400 meters.
I figured it was a tongue in cheek reference to the Black Ships of wh40k. Its got the lines of an Imperial cruiser, with that blade prow, raised tower (presumably bridge) and the engines being in the position they are. That and the fact it only shows up to take "medically erroneous" people away, and they encounter it in a swirling, angry nebula cloud that looks like a 40k warp portal... lol
in all reality the many sharp angles and imposing greabling are detrimental to it's "em profile" otherwise known as rcs. damn thing about as stealthy as a camo painted airhorn
This is my take on why the Federation has kept thier agreement on cloaking devices. One the federation has the technology to crest them themselves or even better ones. So why not do it. I think because as useful has they seem to be they end up been a weakness. Sure you can close to the enemy ships but Federation sensors are superior by far and will be able to detect you up close. Usually having coak prevents you from using weapons. Those weapons tend to be less powerful the ship tend to be able to use less warp speed and need maintenance sooner. Because how power draining the cloaking divide really is. All of that has kept the Romulan and Klingon behind the federation
The Klingons soved that issue in the undiscovered country. But since it's original deployment was considered extremely dishonorable the empire never did it again. Although the Romulans would love to see how they did it.
The federation is capable of even more advanced cloaking technology as shown by the phasing cloak in that one TNG episode. Federation cloaks don't just let you become undetectable, but also allow you to literally phase through materials. Additionally the Federation is a major technological power, it's better to maintain the treaty of Algeron and just buff the shields and tune the sensors more than it is to have cloaked ships.
The Federation keeps saying "we're not a military" so they don't use cloaking devices since it's a pure military device. They also didn't use mines for a while. A pure military device. Everything military thing on a Federation starship haves a dual purpose. Photon Torpedoes are used to clear debris or asteroids. A phaser can just as easily be used as a giant drill.
A federation ship build by Andorian engineers... and still it's named with a human/earth name/term. Is there any federation class ship which class is named with reference to other species that are part of the federation?

That's... straight up a Black Ship from Warhammer 40K. Both in silhouette and general purpose, of shipping "mutants" to somewhere. There's no way they weren't just trying to make a starfleet black ship, it would be too much coincidence. I have no idea why writers have this need of making Star Trek edgy and gloomy. Leave the grimdark to 40K, we need optimistic, sci-fi more than ever.
