  • This slightly experimental video compares all 3 versions of the model of the USS Enterprise. I am NOT covering the versions of the Enterprise appearing in the Kelvin timeline movies or Star Trek: Discovery, they will be covered sometimes in the future.

    I'm surprised nobody has mentioned the lights in the bussard collectors for the full series model. It was a nice change from the boring single color front caps. Had to have been a pain to add since they had to thread the wiring through the nacelle struts. Worth it.

    • @gregsmall5939
      @gregsmall5939 4 года назад +4

      Not to mention the original caps were machined out of solid wood. That's why you never saw the left (port) side after that. that's where all the wiring was trunked out of.

    Thank You so much for posting this. I find it fascinating to see the USS Enterprise Model on a gimble in front of a blue screen! Once on a trip to DC with my Uncle, we spied one of the original models (probably#3) in a storage room at the Smithsonian and it was badly in need of restoration.

    The behind the scenes raw footage of the Enterprise being filmed is really fascinating since it seems there were a lot of shots that never made it into any episodes. From the look of one shot they probably got a little too ambitious with the camera moves and couldn't properly sync and match the movement of the ship with stars and planets given the existing technology and no true motion control for about another decade. It's actually funny watching those guys hiding under the Enterprise and turning cranks to rotate it. I'm surprised some RUclipsr hasn't taken this footage and completed it yet.

      Yeah, if that's the only or first video you watch on this channel I guess the title is a bit confusing - the "All versions of" part is actually the title of the "series" I do here, I compare all of the versions of episodes (right now season 1 TOS), plus I plan to do special videos on ship models, sets, locations etc.

      @Björnar Dohm that's a very good obervation. Anything that adds to the History of Classic Star Trek is always welcome.
      For myself I can tell if I had 3 equally detailed kits of each of the 3 ships, I would still pick up different sections of each one and put up another different classic NCC-1701, but still with "no bloody A, B, C or D" on it.
      But then, of course, I could (almost) hear Captain Jean-Luc Picard saying "this is YOUR Enterprise".

    Bussard Collectors became illuminated and had a rig inside to rotate the lights. The Bridge changed again, becoming the least tall version, better matching the lower profile of the larger section above the main saucer top (containing Sick Bay and all that). The main sensor dish in the 3rd version was also MUCH smaller, making the first two look sort of silly or awkward. There were also some details on the warp units that are minor but still visible. However, the ends of the "caps" on the nacelles behind the Bussard Collectors were *very* different between 1 and 2 versus the 3rd iteration. Much more detail was added.
    Good video. Thanks for doing this comparison.

    Nice video. There are a couple more things, though.
    1. The bottom of the primary hull directly below the bridge was changed after The Cage. It is more pronounced.
    2. The deflector dish changed after WNMHGB.
    3. During the series, the lights in the Bussard collectors changed at least twice. One version just had lights that blinked. And if I'm not mistaken, they had 2 versions of the spinners.
    BTW, good model work.

    Same goes for the internal details and panels on the inboard sides of the nacelles.
    On thr Cage and Where No Man versions, there is a severe lack of detail and no vent details on the inside of the nacelle pylons.
    The deflector dish was shrunk in the regular series versions and extra detail was added to low front middle of the lower hull.

Interestingly the Empire ship footage was of the same side of the ship just optically flipped and using mirror decals. This was done because the 11' model only had minor details on its left (port) side since it was constructed to be only filmed from its right (starboard) side.

Details of the 2nd pilot ship design like: Larger bridge dome with lighted panels, and the sensor spikes on the nacelle domes...so distictly different from series design, but perfect to represent the Empire ship.

      If you want to win a SF Convention bar bet, a "Connie" in real naval jargon is the USS Constellation, as the still commissioned frigate USS Constitution is "Old Ironsides".
      Here's another. In TOS on broadcast film 1966-69 The USS Enterprise is a "Starship Class" ship built in San Francisco Yards. It says so on the bridge builders plaque seen near the bridge turbolift in almost every episode.
      Constitution Class was a creation of the AMT model instructions and later included in the Starfleet Technical Manual after the series ended. It helped push merchandise and multiple model sales to collectors which profited Norway Corp owned by "Mr No Money in the future", cocktail communist Gene Roddenberry.

      Darth Decius Know about those newfangled shower doors that can be frosted, patterened or clear? The same type thing for the viewscreen which is a section of the bulkhead that is duranium alloy using a similar process for transparent aluminum. It can be opaque or transparent( when activated). In opaque mode, we have seen it as a computer display or a video display with such things as tactical or communication or views from multiple angles from the ships' cameras or just at rest and the bare bulkhead. When activated. it becomes just as like a window. In fact it even looks like a window,even from the exterior and has two way observational ability as in one episode the ship is miniaturized and shown to Kirk and he looks into the bridge and sees the crew frozen in place. In other eps, a scope raises from the nav console that the navigator can look thru for magnified viewing or other tactical information on that viewer. Unfortunately, as seen in many cases, in order to see out,it must be powered and outside forces interfere with it and make it go to a staticy mess, so you can't treat it just like it is a window
