It’s been a long road- don’t! We’ve covered a lot of ships throughout Trek Central’s history, but their time is finally here; Some of the Pre-Federation ships, sorry/not sorry, we won’t be including the highly revered NX-01 or Intrepid-type classes of ships, no, just some of the ones that got us from there to here, or here to there- I think I’ve made my point!

@michaellangwaller Жыл бұрын

I have an issue with the nacelles on the Phoenix being inline with the hull. According to ST lore, the nacelles have to have line of sight with each because of an energy discharge between the nacelles. Cochrane was lucky the ship didn't explode when warp was engaged. Of course it could be that the energy discharge was so minor at warp 1 that it didn't matter or it arched over the ship.

@kerryedavis Жыл бұрын

@@concious2 In the past, and including in Star Trek: The Motion Picture, engaging warp within the solar system was considered risky enough that they only did it in order to get to V'Ger as quickly as they could. But assuming it was done anyway, if warp 1 is 1x the speed of light, and Mars is between 36 and 50 million miles from Earth, and ignoring the need to go around the Sun when Mars is at maximum distance, at warp 1 it would take between about 3 and 5 minutes. Which seems fast. BUT. Interstellar distances are Something Else. At 1x the speed of light, going from Earth to the NEAREST other star, Alpha Centauri, would take FOUR YEARS. Even at what should be Warp 5 or 6, it takes about 2 weeks. So much for NX-01 getting to Kronos in 4 days!

The (REAL) Space Shuttle Enterprise was used to do the landing tests, but was originally planned to be used as part of the orbiter fleet. The problem was that in the short span of ten years the second shuttle was over twice as advanced especially with the panel instruments, and computers. It was more cost effective to build the new shuttles than to retro fit Enterprise. She was one of the biggest things that taught them how to make the rest though.

The "Ring Ship" design goes back to at least 1974, as I picked up a lithograph of it during Gene Roddenberry's traveling road show stop in Madison, Wisconsin that year. My understanding is that Matt Jefferies created it for an aborted Roddenberry pilot called simply "Starship." As for as its class, it's widely known as a "Declaration-class" early warp ship.

@davidmaestas2915 Жыл бұрын

This is awesome. I think I will use this in my Spelljammer/Star Trek hybrid campaign I am writing for my Dnd 5e group. My reasoning will be that Starfleet revives the Declaration class as a Legacy type of program. It will be a modern ship design, but with a 'shifting' Impulse/Warp Ring design. Similar to a jellyfish, the ring system will undulate, based on which propulsion unit is being employed at the moment. When Impulse is being used, that ring will flare out, but when Warp is used, the Impulse Ring folds in, and the Warp Ring flares out, and so on.

@lonesomephreak69 Жыл бұрын

(not the USS Phoenix, (the Nebula class at 00:24) or the Phoenix Class? (a subclass of the Prometheus design) My favorite Trek ships are the Miranda & Excelsior class, (I also really like the Nova class. (USS Equinox) I don't really like many non-Star Fleet ships except the Klingon Bird-of-Prey. (I hate Ferengi & Cardassian ships. They're ugly & unimaginative (the main Ferengi ship looks like a crab) I have a bunch of old 1990s Micro Machines, early 2000s Furuta, and newer Eaglemoss & Hero Collection Star Trek ships. (3-4 dozen different Eaglemoss & = number of MMs & Furuta) The Eaglemoss are really nice. They seem to be of slightly better quality then Hero Collection. (even though I think Eaglemoss made Hero Collection?) It's a shame Eaglemoss went out of business. 🙁 I have all the Eaglemoss ships at the beginning of Enterprise series, from the OV-165 shuttle to Enterprise NX-01. (except for Cochrane's Phoenix. I have only a little Micro Machines one)

Let’s not forget the XCV-330 was always very popular among fans and was almost used as the design for the heroship of the never produced Roddenberry series “Starship.” Starship would later go on to be made, with several changes to the idea, as Andromeda, the Andromeda Ascendant btw still uses a bit of a hooped ring design in its look.

This Enterprise was an experimental design testing a new propulsion system that was successful yet a near-accident forced the project's cancellation due to possible 'unspecified repercussions'.

The XCV Enterprise is hauntingly reminiscent of current Alcubierre Drive-type mockups of almost-plausible FTL ships.

My all time favorite Enterprise was the A. I watched the first 6 Star Trek movies over and over as a kid I nearly wore out the tapes. The E was my second favorite, but after watching and re watching Enterprise I think the NX is now my second favorite. It's just a solid looking ship that feels very practical for the time and clearly reflects design decisions that would be used in future Star Fleet ships.

1] Good news, NASA is actually working on a Warp Drive. It comes from the EM Drive, from the UK. The EM Drive only needs electricity to generate thrust. However it also 'warps' space, to make a space bubble. 2] NASA is also working on anti-matter engine. They say, at current costs, a gram of anti-matter would cost $65m to produce.

Having just finished reading "Wingless Flight" by R. Dale Reed, I can tell you that the OV-165 is a direct copy of the X-33, a 67-foot-long NASA/Lockheed Martin prototype model of the proposed 127-foot VentureStar. The Warp Delta ship looks like the X-24A, an early lifting-body research craft, with added propulsion pods.

USS Franklin (NX-326), from the 2009 film, predates the arrival of the Narada, thus is is still canon for the prime universe. As "the first Warp 4 ship", it clearly predates the NX Warp 5 program that spawned NX-01 Enterprise.

I was thinking the same, Timeline-wise it would be between the "Delta warp 3 ships" and the NX-01. It was recommissioned and upgraded during the Romulan war as the Federation needed any ship they could get their hands on.

Fun fact about Eaves' NG Space Shuttle, the concept was stolen by NASA engineers for the concept X-33 Space Plane/Shuttle replacement in 2009. Sadly the design was rejected and NASA outsourced their launch vehicle side to private industries such as Space X.

@TheGenericavatar Жыл бұрын

XCV-330 looks like it was inspired by a paper airplane that has a loop at each end connected by a rigid shaft. Last I saw several decades ago, that design had the world's record for the longest distance flown by a paper airplane.

It was obvious that Vulcans, with NO emotion, got very emotional about us going into space by trying to block our progress at every opportunity. I seem to recall Archer pulling them up about this, that they were interfering and stifling our natural progress as a species. The Vulcans were in fact violating what was to become the prime directive. One thing that puzzled us about the Zefram Cochran ship prior to them being made in space..... How the hell did it land??

Can't find a link, but I first saw the rocket sled idea shown in When Worlds Collide, and I thought it was really neat. The technology has found its way into the High Frontier 4 All board game, which is a very thematic simulation type boardgame about the next 50 years of space development.

As for course changes at high warp to quote Tom Paris (ST-VOY) "No left or right, always try to maintain a linear trajectory". So even during academy training course corrections where always done while dropping out if warp.

The XCV-300 always struck me as an interesting idea for a post-phoenix attempt at a Vulcan low-warp design with the warp-rings they had on their ships, then the humans abandoned that design language for warp nacelles instead - probably because they found them easier to work with their back and forth warp field rather than dealing with the circular ones the Vulcans used, so that it was easier for them to reach higher warp speeds faster by simplifying the math involved.
