It's been a long road, getting from there to here. You have always placed a great level of heart and knowledge into the Star Trek universe with your models and technical descriptions. Thank you and your friends for all the work and effort you placed into keeping Star Trek alive
@@captainspire9094 No problem. I am glad to put my "technical" knowledge into the genre.
Hi Half, anyone who thumbs down this video 📹 is a Romulan and just jealous.
sad
If your are really referring to the history of the USS enterprise, then it seems you left out several ships. Those being sailing cruisers, aircraft carriers, and space shuttle.
I love how the evolution of the enterprise is talked about like its our history. So glad there's people with the knowledge and ability to create these videos for us sci fi nerds.
The Enterprise D was my introduction to Star Trek and will always be my favorite Star ship for both nostalgic reasons and because I just love the design and how it didn’t feel like a cold battle ship.
I feel you, but the E was so sleek...
Yes destroyong the Entrerprise D for that ugly Enterprise E and the dark drab colours was a mistake. We had the Excellesior and it was grand. This original D bwas so neat looking, as it is a beautiful r.vessel .. A graceful swan, a chraracter of the show. I loved the ones where they never left the ship. It was a friend we knew even more than our own cars. The excuses that it was unsuitable for film is weak. Upgrade the sets. Generatioms at least felt right....even if the death did not of that vessel. Did not get a proper intro to the E. See it on a candy wrapper in K mart The first time at checkout. The new ship on a chocolate bar....with a white deflector dish. . Shows up quickly w o an intro on tv. It uses the Voyager sickbay....cheap, and feela dark.... maroon, black, dark blue. And tan. I think the stuffy grey winter time uniformj jacketa make it feel even more ...uncomfortable, or cold. Air......but still too hot with all those layers We see the observation lounge ... looks like the D repainted. So we got a new ugly bridge, really ugly halls, a goofy engineering set with a warp core with d crystal chamber 20.ft.in the air... because...I dont know.... we have lillys stupid window wo glass and a room w no hallway to.it. And we see pods for ejection. ...oh no we don't.....we arr shown supposedly where they are in the wall. We did get a much uglier Deflector diah which looks like a playmates toy. Ugly and stupid.
The familes abd the teddy bar are gone. The bear blew up. Families of crew are not allowed.
Then as we finally get used to this new ship, they tease blowing it up. Don't get attached..... Picard will not get anothwr ship.....(but appatently they just re open the vortex, and trabel back to 1985 b and its all good.)
See we lost the look and feel of the enterprise D meaning the tone of the show changed into a cheap horror film for.movie 2. Movie 2 would draw no matter what....but when tng fans got this, well it was ok, good to see em. Bit that Baku film wanted to.be.lighthearted andvserious at the same time....and it s mood was.offz the script weak, and that.made sure episode 4. Movie 4 would be hatd to get ppl out for.
But I'm so off topic, now. Just know that each film seemed to get worse.
@@jordanmc9015 Personally, I think the Enterprise D looks like it was designed by talented 24th century engineers who wanted to create a class of starship with an efficient and practical design that would allow for a great deal of versatility. On the other hand, I think the Enterprise E looks like it was designed by late 20th century fanboys who wanted a ship that would be 'cool' looking.
@@themidcentrist mission accomplished
@Jordan Mc I'm with you. I always felt the D looked unbalanced and awkward (don't get me wrong, it grew on me over time, and I think it was well designed, just not aesthetically great). My first place Enterprise was always the refit/A, but when I saw the E I saw it as a fusion of the refit/A overall shape coupled with the sleeker, more flowing design of the D. I think it's beautiful and looks great from every angle, which, in my opinion, is not true of the D. If it's not my favorite, it's a very close second.
I really liked the submarine-like interior feel of NX-01 and the tactile nature of its interfaces. I do wish they continued that series as they had plans for a refit to bridge it to TOS
ditto, It is a bummer it was not well received. I liked the series.
it was bummer because enterprise got better as season went by. If they know how well it would aged it would gotten about anther season or 2 and it would pay off with reruns.
It's strange really since if you look at the pattern of Star Trek spin-offs (I don't count the original in this) they all kinda start off with more of a wet fart than a bang, then get better over time, if all the spin-offs had been judged entirely based on their first 2 seasons, none of em would have ever gotten off the ground, TNG, DS9 and Voyager all managed to get past the early season teething issues, I really don't understand why Enterprise never did.
@@cptsteele91 Its worth listening to the shuttlepod show podcast with Dominic and Conner. Theres more than enough information to highlight UPN meddling in Enterprise that caused so much difficulty. They just interviewed Michael Dorn who said it was UPN that cancelled TNG. It would not surprise me UPN was the reason 7 of 9 ended up wrestling The Rock in VOY....yes that happened!
Absolutely, is really reminiscent of a submarine with the low ceilings, cramped rooms, it really adds to the character of the ship. The latter seasons of Ent had some excellent episodes and you get a feel the series had really found it’s identity. Just as the plug gets pulled on it, a real shame.
Enterprise NCC 1701-A. Undoubtedly the most profoundly beautiful, balanced and timeless design ever.
My uncle would have loved to see this he was the biggest Star Trek fan I know‼️ I just made a Stop Motion tribute with one of my Enterprises 🎬📸🎞️ Hope you enjoy it 🖖🏻
You think?
My favorite as well
Except for the ridiculously thin neck section
I'm still amazes at the entire Star Trek series. I'm hoping that it will continue for many years to come. My wife and are Trekkies for along time and have passed the love of Trek onto our 3 son's. My wife are always watching the Star Trek series and we're hooked for life. I'm 62 yrs young now and will continue watching for my entire lifetime!
Well. Rest assured that the franchise is even bigger than before. I grew up watching TNG with my grandmother and as recently as last year I counted 4 different Star Trek shows that were airing new episodes (Picard, Lower Decks, Discovery and Strange New Worlds). I see it only growing from that. Sadly I'm the only Trekkie in MY household with only my 85 year old grandmother to go into detail with. I told her I decided to watch ALL OF STAR TREK. She replied "OH no..." That's when I learned how deep the rabbit hole goes. It's a healthy series after over 60 years and it's still going strong!
@@DimSum9685 Although the Nu-Trek from 2017 isn't doing to well and ratings and merchandise is poor.
It's a real shame they're doing all they can to ruin everything with the Star Trek name on it.
@@DimSum9685 I don't care for Discovery or Picard, but I have every episode of TOS, TNG, DS9, Voyager, Enterprise, and The Animated Series, I also have all of the movies. I watch some form of Star Trek every day. All of my Star Trek is on DVD and is the original unedited version. My wife has every episode of Dallas & Knot's Landing also on DVD. She has her shows and watches them in the living room, and I have mine and watch them in the den. I'm 75, she's 74, and we have been married over 50 years. Now you know the secret to a long and happy marriage.
Highly recommend Strange New Worlds. Closest feel to the original.
I’ll always consider the refit Enterprise in Star Trek: TMP as my favorite design. It feels like a spaceship in the future and not just a set piece. It just conveys the word “possibility” when you look at it inside and out.
My favourite was Admiral Riker's AU flagship Enterprise-D refit with the third warp nacelle, cloaking device, and deflector powered mega phaser.
Yes & warp 13!
@@seanb6478 13!
You mean the Galaxy-X Dreadnought? That was epic and the Spiral Phaser was a boss.
Warp 13: its faster than infinity lmao
Hell yeah! That timeline did not play out.
1701. No bloody A, B, C or D. Truly the classic, timeless beauty that started this voyage. That said, the 1701 refit is a thing of beauty. She was worthy of the name "Enterprise."
The ENTERPRISE ya chatterin' piece of ... *eye roll*
@@Arundodonax The words of Montgomery Scott during shakedown tests.
As was the Enterprise A.
dang it I was gonna say it that way
@@obelic71 Scotty's words were always worthy of note. Even "It's green." 😆
These computer renderings of the various incarnations of the USS Enterprise, are simply GOB-SMACKINGLY, EXCELLENT!
The 3D RENDERING computer jockey(s) who produced this video, CANNOT be THANKED ENOUGH, for the work that was done on this masterpiece.
Thanks. Give kudos to Alex for the excellent 3D model!
@@Halfscreen DONE! & DONE!
NX-01 is my favourite, despite it not being the most modern vessel, it showed the humble and fragile beginnings of the Federation and Star Fleet.
I really appreciated the change in design between the Enterprise-D and the Enterprise-E. Making the E more compact and streamlined seemed the logical choice in the face of threats like the Borg.
The E's long lines (vs the D) reflect the shorter and wider D filling (and fitting) a 4:3 television screen, and the E designed to fill and fit 16:9 movie screens. I appreciate the designers working around constraints we never even think of, and doing it in a beautiful way that just looks right for each medium, without looking like a compromise.
The E wasn’t more compact though. It was bigger. Just longer.
Enterprise D will always be my favourite. The Galaxy class is an absolute thing of beauty
Now looking back. It seems the Enterprise D was the only Federation ship to ever carry on board a civilian population.
and she´s huge.
TNG is my fav show
And made her even better when Admiral Riker took her out of mothballs and refit her with that friggin awesome phaser cannon in the TNG series finale All Good Things. One shot Klingon Negh'Var warships.
Galaxy-class is majestic
It was a peace... Of junk. I'd take the defiant anyway over the smol d!
Since I grew up sitting at the dinner table watching Star Trek TNG with my Grandmother. The NCC-1701-D Enterprise is my favorite. I still talk about Star Trek and update my grandmother about how big the franchise has grown from back then.
I wish the Enterprise C had more screen time. I've always loved the look of the Ambassador class ships.
I always felt like the C was the best example of a perfect kit bash between A B and D
I don't recall B having any screen time but I found it interesting that B was capable of warp 9.2 but C was DROPPED to 9.0.
@@seanb6478 Well the best movie for Excelsior class capabilities (B series) is likely Star Trek VI. B only showed up briefly on Generations, and if you found that movie so bad it erased your memory, you're not alone. I suspect B has a higher top speed but C may be better able to sustain it.
@@davidmclean357 Star trek IV used a Klingon ship when they went back to 1980's to retrieve whales since they went extinct in the future. If 1701 B was in it, it was very brief @ the beginning or end. I liked Generations but don't remember the ships used since its been awhile since I've seen it.
@@seanb6478 B was only in Generations at the beginning. The Class of ship (Excelsior) was at the end of IV and teased before revealing the A. While the class of ship got a lot of screen time in various shows and movies, the B itself only appeared once.
I loved watching Star Trek stuff when I was growing up, much of my teen years, and it's one of the reasons I love science fiction so much to this day. But it's hard to keep on top of things as I've gotten older. This was great seeing the entire "fleet" lined up 🥰
Amazing how we are still enthralled with the universe that began with a cheesy TV show that only ran for a couple of years.
George Lucas probably thought up Star Wars while taking a shit.
@@evanbelisle8464 , great point.
3 years. 1966-69.
Cheesy..?
Don't you think you ought to...
Rephrase that?
It ran for three years, had an extremely devoted fan base, and was "cheesy" only by today's jaded standards. In the 1960s it was absolutely ground-breaking, with state of the art SFX, and did things no other TV show had ever dared to try. It earned it's place as a SUPERB classic SciFi TV show, among the best ever made.
Sometimes I forget this is not real, but just the product of some people's imaginations
Give it time...
I used to watch the T.O.S. , with my Dad, great and Wonderful memories. I miss you Dad. God bless you and Mom...
It's really too bad that there was never a season 5 to 'Enterprise', as they were planning to add the secondary engineering hull to the NX-01, giving it greater power to shields, weapons, etc. It would have been fascinating & exciting to see the stories that could have sprung up from the added capabilities of the expanded & upgraded NX-01, making it visually an obvious ancestor to the NCC-1701.
they was NOT going to put the secondary engineering hull.
Enterprise E without a Shadow of a doubt...what a beauty.Great video by the way ..great visuals,very well researched
Choosing a favorite version of the Enterprise is difficult, but I guess it would be the original Constitution class because I grew up watching William Shatner, Nimoy, Kelley, Nichols, etc. in the reruns during the 1970's.
The Enterprise-A is by-far my favorite!
Love these ships. Thank-you for an amazing video giving these iconic vessels the tribute they deserve.
Glad you enjoyed it!
I like the Enterprise NX-01 series - it showed the development of the vessel itself e.g shields and weaponry. they started with a conventional spatial torpedo to the first phase cannon .... until the starship is technologically ready to face the Xindi.
1701-D is also impressive, but sometimes it looks too powerful and heavily armed vessel that used as a deterrence.
the 1701-E looks very good during the battle in Briar patch .... Riker was an excellent battle strategist.
"Let's make sure history never forgets the name...Enterprise."
Jean Luc Picard in Star Trek TNG S03 E15 - Yesterday`s Enterprise
The 203 figure for crew in the TOS Enterprise is generally regarded as an early error in the show, much like United Earth Space Probe Agency which was mentioned in the early episodes. The generally "accepted" figure for the crew complement of the TOS-era Enterprise is generally considered in the low 400s, as mentioned in Charlie X.
UESPA became canon in "Enterprise", see "Demons" and "Terra Prime".
@@colinmontgomery1956 interesting indeed! I didn’t appreciate that UESPA was so “ingrained”. According to the memory alpha article it even crops up in Generations! Being an old time Trekkie I always took it for Roddenberry and crew just figuring things out at the start of TOS, much like “Vulcanians” and a few other things that were refined overall. Thanks for the info. That 203 figure is essentially “buried” though.
In the Discovery episode "Brother", Burnham quoted the 203 crew figure again. I presume this is the case with Strange New Worlds, although I cannot be certain.
@@Melkur1981 I don’t count that as Star Trek so that’s fine.
@lawrencemanning Nor me, quite frankly. However, the 203 figure seems to have more substance because of it, much like the above comment regarding Enterprise & UESPA (many people still disregard Enterprise, too). Another commenter also mentioned the Enterprise's design changes between 'The Cage' and 'Where no Man has go before' deliberarely takes into account the crew compliment increase, which I was previously unaware of. Beta canon sources seemed to have informed the video, which I believe confirm the 203 figure further. I find myself learning more and more about my favourite show simply from comment sections, which is always most welcome.
I've always like the refit Constitution class. Just its look. Love it. And the Sovereign class. Definitely a fighting ship
I think the NCC-1701 refit is the most gorgeous starship design ever, in any series anywhere. Visually beautiful with graceful lines, and yet also visually imposing at the same time. Impressive in every way.
@@michelleann1910
Both the original Connie and her refit are beautiful designs.
@@valor1omega I agree, but I think the refit is the sleeker, more beautiful of the two, an improvement on the original (which is a rare thing indeed).
The Constitution class and Soveriegn class ships are also my favorites, awesome-looking designs, especially the refit Constitution. Followed by the Excelsior class. The Galaxy class is the only one whose aesthetic I thoroughly dislike. I think it is ugly.
The Miranda class is also a favorite, I can't decide if I like Miranda more than Constitutiin, or vice versa.
@@michelleann1910 And all I ask is a tall ship, and a star to steer her by...
For me it's always been the Enterprise-D it looked great, but could pack a wallop when it needed to.
I’ve always called the Galaxy class “a cruise ship with some guns strapped to it,” because that’s what it is.
I'm loving the 3D rendering of NCC-1701. The chrome deflector dish is something I have done on several Enterprise model kits I've put together. I have a tendency to chrome plate stuff just for the heck of it.
Thanks. Can't help but wanting to use chrome on my 3D model.
@@Halfscreen Really good video again! Not sure if some deck counts match the cutaways always though?
Also, where did the maximum speed figures come from? I recall pre 2312, the older warp scale permitted the refit Enterprise to top out maybe at warp 12 - or so some sources claim.
Oh, and the Enterprise-C was said in a script line, to have 700 crew, but that may have been cut.
I look forward to later vids!
@@chrissonofpear1384 I have to admit, I probably don't want to mention max warp speed since it varies according to source materials, tv series, websites, and fan info. It's rarely ever consisted at all.
The Enterprise-E is my favorite from an objective standpoint. It's sleek and powerful; designed to provide much more of a fighting chance against the Borg and, in my personal opinion, the best looking. I tend to favor ships designed for combat (the Defiant being my all-time favorite Starfleet vessel).
However, from a subjective standpoint, I will always love the Enterprise-D. The first time I saw that ship on TV, I thought it was the coolest thing in existence. The adventures of Picard, Data and the gang on board that ship were something special.
The refit Enterprise including the -A are my all time favourite ships, followed by the - E and then the - D
Agree mate
I really like the E, and the refit Constitution class. All great ships though.
I agree with you completely, in that order
I Like D & E because of the Phaser circular tracking to a point then firing. When I first saw this on Enterprise D I screamed, "Yea, Way to Go Enterprise D, Yea". To Hear Worf say firing phasers and then that bridge sound of acknowledgement then switching view to outside the ship and seeing the phaser beam energy began at opposite ends of the Phaser Ring then circuling to the point of firing and hiting their target was mind blowing for me
Enterprise-E is breathtakingly gorgeous, my favorite Trek ship and one of my faves in all of sci-fi.
I do like the notion of the Enterprise (and all Starfleet ships) becoming "weirder" and more abstract as more and more races join the Federation and bring in their own unique ideas for how ships should look.
My favourite Enterprises are B and E. It's sad that both were not seen much in action.
Love the design and the idea that the excelcior class serverd for more than 100 years, not too far fetched considering the length of the B52s tenior going on +50 years.
And the B-52 is expected to fly at least to 2050 I think.
@@m0t0rh0me3 Yes, and possibly beyond.
I love the fact that the original Enterprise had over 40 years of history. And then all following Enterprises were made of Explodium.
Lets see
the 1701 lasted 50 years and then was destroyed
the A was known to be obsolete and on borrowed time before they were even finished building it
the B was (maybe?) destroyed before it could be replaced
the C was destroyed before it could be replaced
the D was totaled before it could be replaced
the E was totaled before it could be replaced
the F was totaled before it could be replaced
yeah, they'd probably live longer if they didn't keep getting blown up. Except for the A, which was doomed from the start.
My favorite Enterprise is the C, and they so could have made a movie about it that could have been the before and after encounter with the D.
Fantastic video! To answer your question about which Enterprise is my favourite; That would be the Enterprise E. Although we did not see her as much as she was primarily used in the movies, she was gorgeous to look at, and she played a huge role in the end of Picard's career as a captain. Science labs, additional phasers and torpedo bays, she was a formidable vessel, and clearly a huge asset to the Federation.
Enterprise D was my favorite due to the fact that you can separate the saucer section. However, I didn't agree with Starfleet's decision to let family aboard during missions. They sent Captain Picard to places like The Neutral Zone. Family should not be aboard a ship sent to hostile areas.
As far as the exterior design of the ships... I think the Enterprise-E is the visually best looking design followed closely by the Enterprise-refit/Enterprise-A design. I never much cared for the D, C or B versions. But somehow I still think I love the NX-1 as my favorite ship overall just because of the more lived-in mechanical look and feel.
It's the most realistic for where we are technologically speaking in my opinion.
The "E" doesn't hold a candle to the Enterprise refit.
appalachia refit looks pretty nice too
I agree, but my 1 qualm would be that the escape pods are so prominently visible. They should blend in better!
@@megamanx466 but then they wouldn't have had the scene they used for the movie trailers with the pods all ejecting and heading to earth lol
Since the Enterprise B was "never found" it'd be awesome to see it on screen again, possibly discovered either crashed on a barren planet or possibly adrift in a nebula somewhere. I could see it making it into an episode of Lower Decks.
That's Beta canon. That date and info comes from a book which aren't considered official 'Alpha' canon. There is very little known about the ship after 2293 in official canon.
@@still_guns that still creates a blank slate in alpha cannon though. Having the ship suddenly be found after all these years would officially make it's fate cannon provided Kurtzman doesn't screw it up somehow.
@@joecostantino3684 You're correct and canon has been destroyed by Kurtzman especially tearing down decades of novels which were far superior to his crap Star Trek.
I heard it had a very long service history and was retired.
@@SonnyThomasShow1 The Enterprise B is my favorite Enterprise and the Excelsior class ships are my favorite. I want A, B, and E back into service flying next to D and F.
None of the lists of "USS Enterpries"s I've seen to date mention the one from the US Civil War. There was the instance where an observation balloon was tethered to the White House grounds to demonstrate its usefulness for spotting what's going on on the ground and signalling by semaphore to its HQ. That balloon's name was "Enterprise."
Those are some really nice 3D models dude! I really liked seeing the interiors
I have to give some credit to Alex Klemm for doing the 3D models.
My favourite Enterprise has always been, and will continue to be the Galaxy class Enterprise-D.
TOS Enterprise is my favorite. Partially because I grew up with TOS; however, she was constantly in circumstances of being overmatched, outgunned, etc, but still made it back under her own power. As long as you took care of her, she would bring you home (paraphrased from Adm. McCoy).
Mine too. The Constitution class Enterprise from TOS is where it all began. For me, that matters.
The Enterprise NCC-1701 Refit and D are not just beautiful works of art; they are both dear friends that convey a sense of warmth, familiarity, and home.
Nice video! Enterprise NCC-1701! No damn A,B,C,D, or E! It would have been fun if you'd included the US Navy wooden ships, aircraft carriers, and Space Shuttle!
I always found the Galaxy Class the most visually aesthetic. It gave this nice big, powerful and highly advanced vibe, with none of the flimsy pylons or neck of older models.
18:00 I've read somewhere that Quantum torpedoes aren't having a higher yield than Photon torpedoes, but use a special shield generator to channel all the explosive force towards the target.
So when a Photon torpedo explodes, most of the force is lost in space from the spherical explosion, while on Quantum torpedoes, nearly 100% of the explosive force is directed towards the target.
I always was of the opinion that the Galaxy was an overbuilt, undergunned whale of a ship.
@@Shaun_JonesThe main mission of the Enterprise-D was exploration and so she was configured for that mission. Captain Jellico showed that Enterprise-D could be configured to be a formatible ship capable of delivering a whooping. 👍🏼
I must confess I have two favourite Enterprises, even though it was only seen once, I like the Enterprise C, wouldn't it be good if there was a mini-series for the C version, my second favourite is the Enterprise E a great looking ship.
The Star Trek Constitution Class Enterprise NCC-1701, Captained by James T. Kirk, and subsequent refit upgrade into Enterprise NCC-1701 / NCC-1701-A are and will always be my favorite iconic Star Trek ships !
The Constitution class remains the most iconic and memorable, and the Galaxy class remains the most beautiful and aesthetically the best designed overall. None of the other designs really come close to either, in either of those ways.
You missed the Enterprise F, which in terms of design is my favourite along with the refit Connie.
Outstanding video about the Enterprises. Perhaps you could do a (small) update since Picard season three, and what the Enterprise-D did? 😏
Can’t wait to see the new Enterprise-F in action
I wish the NX Refit got to be in this list. Design never got shown as Enterprise was cancelled, but the refit design beautifully fits within the lineage.
NX doesn't exist in prime canon.
The first space fairing Enterprise was a ringed colony ship seen in the Motion picture hanging between the Navel ship and the Connie.
There was no upsidedown akria anywhere on the wall therefore it doesn't exist in prime canon.
@@valor1omega all the shows are canon. Paintings on a wall do not change that. You'd have to eliminate huge swaths of canon if every minor contradiction was accounted for by defaulting to what was first shown. The constitution class was capable of going to the center and edge of the galaxy in a matter of days, but Voyager was estimated to need at least 70 years to travel from one side of the galaxy to the other. The Enterprise D was slower than an intrepid class. By your logic every show after the animated series and every film after The Undiscovered Country is not canon
@@justinbeath5169
Wrong.
After TOS the movies that directly came out after it are canon.
Tng and DS9 added to the canon, they didn't try to overwrite the past which enterprise did try to do.
So no it isn't main canon, just because you believe it should be doesn't make it so.
If it conflicts with what came before then that is where the problem lies.
Therefore I am correct, tmp clearly shows what came before.
That's the issue with prequel trash, those who does it do not care what came before it.
We seen that with enterprise Romulan arc which also conflicts with the balance of terror canon.
Then there are the "early" BOP which didn't exist either or at the very least not owned by Klingons.
Klingons didn't get the BOP until they traded for them along with the cloaking device.
Not to mention that according to balance of terror no human had ever seen a Romulan and the earth/Romulan war was fought with lasers and nuclear weapons.
That was stated all in one show.
So as I said before there is no NX in the prime canon timeline and thus enterprise show is not prime canon as like the ship it counters the original series canon.
If anything the Enterprise timeline branches off into the STDis timeline which is different from the TOS timeline.
@@valor1omega first of all you need to learn what a retcon is. Star Trek continuity has always been inconsistent. The Klingons got their cloaking device from a technology exchange. The birds of prey are just ships though. There's no reason why they would need the Romulans to design ships for them. TOS shows the first time humans and Vulcans saw Romulans, but it was well after they had first interacted with each other
@@justinbeath5169
I know very well what a retcon is.
That excuse doesn't work here.
As for the bop they wasn't designed for them it was part of the trade for the d7s.
In other words the bop was Romulan in design.
I stand by what I said.
The NX doesn't exist in TOS prime canon.
For me kirks enterprise will always be star trek
Me too 👍😊🤠
Let history never forget the name...Enterprise.
Like what Captain Jean-Luc Picard said in Star Trek:Insurrection 'Does Anyone remember when we used to be explorers' in the turbolift of the Sovereign Class U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-E.
Both the Enterprise-E and the Enterprise-A are my favorite Star Trek ships named Enterprise, so far.
Also, since the Odyssey class Enterprise-F from "Star Trek Online" has now been made canonical with its upcoming appearance in Season 3 of "Star Trek Picard", I think that you should do a follow up video, to this video, that gives us some details about the Enterprise-F ship itself.
Plus, I want to point out that the design of the Enterprise-J should be considered as canon since it did appear in an episode of "Star Trek: Enterprise" displayed on a computer screen, and one of the characters in that particular episode SPECIFICALLY states that the ship displayed on the computer screen is (definitely) the Enterprise-J, which, in turn, means that the design for the Enterprise-J is canon.
Loved the E ever since first seeing it on the big screen in the opening scenes of First Contact.
Mine is the D and E.
I remember when TOS first aired and have watched it for decades since. OF all the ships I am partial to NCC-1701, but the Enterprise A is my favorite. They really did the Constitution class ships right with that makeover!
To this day I can't watch a certain scene in The Search For Spock. It was like watching a friend die.
@@veganconservative1109 My heart dropped when she was......yeah.
But the Enterprise A wasn't treated right though. It was always breaking down. Whoever changed the original name of that ship to the Enterprise made the Enterprise look like a joke. :(
Actually, the original NCC 1701 Enterprise, not the Enterprise A, was the first "refitted" Constitution Class starship. It's the one that appeared in Star Trek: The Motion Picture (the first ST movie) with the sleeker warp nacelles. The Enterprise NCC-1701-A was another Constitution Class starship (the Yorktown) that had been updated, and then was rechristened "Enterprise" and assigned to Kirk and crew after the original 1701 was destroyed in ST III: The Search for Spock. The two ships were identical in appearence. But I agree that both of them were were gorgeously beautiful in their new design. The refitted Enterprise (whether 1701 or 1701-A) is still my favorite Enterprise of all time.
@@JamesMDavis1 It was breaking down because the refit (upgrade) reconstruction wasn't complete yet when it had to be deployed for its first mission as the new Enterprise.
My favorite was Enterprise CV-6, the most decorated warship of World War II earning 20 Battle Stars-three more than any other ship. In addition, Enterprise was awarded the Presidential Unit Citation and the Navy Unit Commendation becoming the only carrier awarded both the PUC and NUC for service in WWII.
CVN-65 didn't enter service until the 1960's.
Did you mean the CV-6? CVN-65 was a 1960's carrier.
@@DanRamosDR Yes, thank you.
Because a carrier fights with her planes, CV-6 was basically always in the front lines. And she was in virtually every major battle of the Pacific war -- heck, a couple of her planes even tangled with the first wave of Japanese raiders to hit Pearl Harbor!
But best of all was when she and her sister Yorktown delivered the single deadliest blow in naval history, sinking four of the Kido Butai's irreplaceable carriers and changing the whole course of the war in just five minutes at the Battle of Midway.
Little wonder, then, that the U.S. Navy decided to use the name Enterprise for its first atomic supercarrier (CVN-65), which was commissioned in 1958 and went on to serve for over 55 years. And little wonder, too, that the hero ship of a TV space opera that premiered in 1966 was given the name Enterprise (NCC-1701).
The Enterprise E was just a beautiful design and by far my fav.
My favorite Enterprise is the E, I wanted so so much for them to make a show with her 😞 so sad we only have a few glimpses of her interior because of the movies. 😕
Thank you for not including the silly one from the last few movies.
The E and the A are both favorites of mine, but the design I like the most is the F. Ever since it first showed up in STO, I've been in love with her design. I'm not a huge fan of the Picard show, but I'm looking forward to seeing the F make it's live action debuted in the third season.
My favorite Enterprise...NX-01 and 1701D
H.M.S. Bounty ( A captured Klingon Bird of prey..) is one of favorites... And the movie... After that Enterprise E... has my vote!!
Nice video! Looking forward to your work on the Enterprise F, can't wait to see her added to this line-up: she's a beaut!
Thank you very much, I have to see if I can find a good 3D model of it.
@@Halfscreen A minor issue is Cryptic's Thomas Marrone made a brand new model that will debut in the show and in the game shortly thereafter. He made numerous tweaks and refinements that significantly improved the ship, but it also means any Odyssey fan model out there is going to be fairly inaccurate.
@@ffnbbq Interesting. I haven't seen too many 3D models out there for the Odyssey.
@@Halfscreen The Bridge Commander game has mods for the ship. Not sure what filetype the games uses for models
I don't think I will ever love any ship as much as the Constitution refit, but the Sovereign comes close, and I also like the original Excelsior, before they added the ugly side fins.
The Enterprise Constitution or A is my favorite as looks go. the D and E are also nice looking ships.
Easy choice. 1. NCC-1701A; NCC-1701E. The Excelsior class Enterprise is VERY good from both an aesthetic and functional perspective, but never made much of an impact in it's service time, although the class itself has easily been a mainstay for over a century and counting- and deservedly so.
I really like the Sovereign Class NCC-1701-E;
The Warp Nacelle/Saucer Section size ratio is more like the Constitution's than the saucer-dominated Galaxy's. However...
I still love the -D. Iconic.
My absolute favourite is always going to be (surprise) the beautiful pre-refit Constitution Class NCC-1701. No bloody A, B... well, you know.
Actually the 203 crew complement is correct for the pilot version according to the book The making of Star Trek the ship was envisioned as smaller then with the larger bridge dome and deflector dish when they finally nailed down the details for the production of the series they bumped up the size of the ship and the crew compliment to 430 and on the production version of the ship they made the bridge smaller and the deflector dish smaller to make the ship appear larger 🖖
Great video by the way - your attention to detail , and 3d models, and scaling are superb.
My personal favorite is the Big D.. I was a teenager in the '80's and loved TNG - the Galaxy Enterprise D always was an absolute thing of beauty to me, for her time - I was shattered when they destroyed it with their 1st movie. But many years later, overjoyed to tears when they resurrected her in Picard S3 with her full original crew. Thank you Terry Matalas..
2nd favorite is the Constitution 1701 refit - a very beautiful ship. And could also pack a real punch given her arsenal at that time. 1701-A wasn't as nice I don't think - something missing , but I don't know what..
Favorite: Definitely the Constitution Class ! She's a gutsy ship that often overcomes her disabilities with a cunning Captain. I also enjoy the 1st Enterprise Starship and the Galaxy Class. The final version, fitted for combat against the Borg, rocks ! Also.
The NX-01is personally my favorite due to it's rugged design, the others to me seem too sleek.
Thanks for making this video and sharing all of you work and research! I look forward to each one and the information you present. You do great work!
Thanks for the kind comments!
So basically the Enterprise NX01, NCC 1701 and refit, and Enterprise A, were shorter than a large modern cruise ship, such as the Wonder of Seas, for example :)
It was an excellent video. I would have liked to have seen the 24th-century recalibration of the warp scale addressed, though, as not doing so makes the Ambassador, Galaxy, and Sovereign classes seem a lot slower at warp than they actually are. All ships through Enterprise-B would have used the old scale, which kept going up to and past Warp 10 linearly, while the new scale topped out with Warp 10 as infinite velocity. Warp 9 in the new scale would have been about warp 11.5 in the old scale, with both being about 1516 times the speed of light.
You also didn't include the wooden sailing vessel, Enterprise, or the aircraft carrier, Enterprise, or the space shuttle, Enterprise. I understand you wanted to focus only on the starship range, but technically the Enterprise evolved all the way back from its days sailing on the seven seas.
I always appreciate your videos! Great job and great detail!
Thank you! Cheers!
My favorite version of the Enterprise, is the Galaxy Class NCC-1701 D
Thank you for this education in the history of the Star Trek Enterprise. I think Gene Roddenberry would be very pleased. My favorite Enterprise is all of them. Star Trek was a god sent because the only Sci-Fi tv programs during my time as a kid was Lost in Space, and Star Trek. During my time as a kid there were only 5 channels a kid could watch, ABC, CBS, NBC, PBS, and what is now FOX. I am greatful for Gene Roddenberry and the TV net work for the creation, and production of Star Trek. It allowed the future of "Trekkies," and imagination. At elementary school during the 60's and reruns of Star Trek throughout the years we played during recess Star Trek pretend beaming and making our own communicators. This video has help me to understand Enterprise. Keep up the good work you did a great job.
No problem and thanks for watching.
mine is the one that doesn't exist. The probert prototype of the c . man that's a beautiful ship. im so glad they fleshed it out in the MMO as the Narendra class. now there's one id love to see you do but i don't know that anyone has done deck plans for it.
As always, this is brilliant content! Have you ever thought about doing a video on the Stargazer/Constellation-Class?
Don't know much about it, but it's an odd looking ship.
It's amazing that the Enterprise-D came back in Picard final season
My favorite is the classic TOS and her refit. Also loved the D and E.
That was informative. Graphic spot on. Best one I've seen for ages. 👍😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
Thank you for not including the Kelvinverse Enterprise.
Yikes, what an eyesore.
Not a lot of love for the Kelvinverse.😂
Gotta love the Enterprise D. 16 holodecks? Cool
As much as I will always love the Enterprise D, there was just something so sleek and cool about the Enterprise E, there was just no angle where it looked bad.
Enterprise D defintely had a nicer looking bridge, and looked incredible at some angles, but there were just some angles where it kinda looked a bit like a space minivan. I can't describe what I mean...
🖖😎👍Very cool and very nicely well done and very informatively explained and executed indeed 👌.
Glad you enjoyed it
Enterprise B is my favourite. There's just something about that class of ship that I just find very aesthetically pleasing more than any of the other classes. I wish we would see more of it, maybe find out what ultimately became of it.
Awesome video. I'm so glad the Enterprise-D was salvaged and restored in Picard: Season 3. The Galaxy Class is splendid!
I has always been great to have the Enterprise name. I served on the Enterprise CVN-65 in my stint with the US Navy. I do hope the tradition continues, there was A US carrier slatted for the next Enterprise, but it has fallen behind schedule.
Nice and thank for your services!
The 1701 E is probably my favorite. I just really like the design and purpose of the ship. What good is exploration if you can't defend yourself when you get in a jam?
I love your videos. But you forgot the NCC-1701F. Odyssey Class, now canon :) My alltime favorite star fleet vessel: the NCC-1701D Galaxy Class for sure.
I didn't add it in because I just didn't have a good 3D model of the ship.
I've been watching Star Trek since 1966 and while Enterprise NCC-1701 is and always will be my favorite. E is a very close 2nd
