And….. the USA as Chancellor Bismarck said.

They named her well. Take good care of her and she'll always bring you home.

"Well, it's a new ship, but she's got the right name. ... If You Treat Her Like a Lady, She'll Always Bring You Home." - Dr McCoy

@@philt2170 That's right...Next Generation. It was an older McCoy. I don't know why I thought Scotty. It was a great moment. He even wondered if Data had pointed ears thinking he was a Vulcan. 😂

Apparently it got silently canonized as a background ship in the museum fleet.

Where is it from?

@@the.youtube.of.sam.gotter NX-01 Refti was a planned design that would have come in during the later seasons, but due to the cancellation they never used it, but the designs were revealed. So no on-screen reveal.

@@1mattwilson83 It's on screen now in some background shots in Picard.

@@the.youtube.of.sam.gotter They say that appears in Picard season 3 in fleet musem, but, it is not a clear picture. Appear so, but I don't have a very good eye to confirm or denied it. You can see it in youtube videos about the episode, just type fleet museum Picard 4k.

Agreed. The B model was just a repurposed Excelsior and the F model has several design flaws for no reason.

I agree. Connie and D will never look pretty to me. Yet. Amazingly animated and rendered here!

​@colinantink9094 Connie and D are far and away the best looking Enterprises IMHO. I would put the Ambassador class in 3rd place. It reminds me of a bull shark!

Agree 100%. I’m baffled by the versions where deflector dish is inset so far back in the main body. Isn’t the point of the deflector dish to form a shield in front of the ship so when traveling faster than light, even a grain of sand in your path would rip a massive hole in the ship, and this stops this from happening? Kind of hard to do that when the disk for the deflector is set way back in.

Nothing Beats the Constitution Refit!!😊

Actually, it wasn't Kirk's Enterprise, it was Pikes from "Discovery" and "Strange New Worlds". You can tell by them starting with the "windshield" on the bridge, and the shape of the nacelle struts.

@@martykarr7058it’s like the writers and producers don’t know that a viewscreen is a holographic display and not a window like Star Wars.

​@@martykarr7058 its the revised connie, its still kirks despite the modernisation of the model

@@qhu3878 You kind have got it backwards. The one we see in Discovery and Strange New Worlds may just be how it was when it was launched, and what we see in TOS would be after a major overhaul, like the one between TOS and The Motion Picture. Kind of like what they did with some of the last couple of Essex Class carriers when they added an angle deck to them. And so far on Strange New Worlds, nobody's mentioned the Five Year Mission concept, so the differences may be modifications made for that.

I'll second that! I was just as impressed by the layering of theme songs that I'd never imagined would work together.

That's a Star Trek medley. It's been on the Internet for several years already.

The music is a tribute track created by fan and is called 'Star Trek Epic Symphony: Where No One Has Gone Before by Sam Dillard. It's been around for about 11+ years. It was featured in the massive fan project, Star Trek: Armada 3 (Sins of Solar Empire Mod).

It was great but the theme song to Voyager in an Enterprise tribute?

@@tanman99 From DS9 as well 🙂

Nope, having checked, it was janeways… I think the e basically was written off after the protostar incident….

😂😂

She outlived the Refit, and the D not a bad run.

(Firstly: Loved it, cried a little, massive memories.) If we're mentioning an extended cut, may I humbly recommend the Probert Enterprise-C, which was always such a phenomenally-gorgeous, most-appropriate intercessor between the B and the D. I love what Greg Jein did with what he had, and the C was always a great love in my heart for what they tried to do and what they succeeded in portraying to us kiddo fans at the time, but Andrew Probert's design-sometimes called the "Narendra class" because of Star Trek: Online-is absolutely gorgeous and I think speaks to the evolution of these designs. And I say this not flippantly, because initially I thought, "oh god, please don't do the Abramsverse Enterprises in this video..." but this particular rendering is so elegantly done, so respectful, that I honestly think "yeah, absolutely, that." I'm honestly glad that the author here did include them, and that's why I think the Phase II, the Probert C, and yes even the J, might make for a fine extended cut. Most of all, this video brings out so, so much of the best of us who adore the Enterprise in all her incarnations, and we are able to talk about it! Well done!

@@KDReeves I could not agree more

All 285,000+ of the 1701-D?

Nah, the characters are MUCH more important than the aesthetics of the ships.

@@pike100The ships are important as the characters.

@@Globalman43 No, not even close. I'd be fine if the crew of the Enterprise were on a different vessel as long as the stories were the same.

@@pike100 I disagree. The ships are the stars of the show.

@@jimmcleod7286 that was the best compliment I ever got! thank you!

"Here's to ya, lads...."

You're welcome, I'm so glad you liked it!

Thank you!

Call me old-school, the Constitution Refit(The Motion Picture-The Undiscovered Country 1701/1701-A) was the best looking version . A strong second is the Enterprise-D. The Galaxy-class is hard to.beat. If you need to fight Borg or anything else.and wigs needed split yesterday, the Enterprise-E is what you want.

Hahahaha I almost threw it on but hate the design so bad I just couldn't. Thanks for the compliment!

"...and she'll always bring you home."
