Spoilers The Starfleet Museum

[WarpFactorZ]

I know.

I wish TOS had mentioned all 12. Black mark against the show.

The Making of Star Trek book lists 14:

Enterprise, Exeter, Excalibur, Lexington, Yorktown, Potemkin, Republic, Hood, Constitution, Kongo, Constellation, Farragut, Valiant, and Intrepid

Thank you.

Well we know one of those definitely isn't a Constitution.

 

[Mr Awe]

Fair enough.

I don't. At most a secondary motivation.

What do you think was their motivation?

 

[fireproof78]

What do you think was their motivation?

Relics and Picard's wistful remarks of seeing a Constitution class at the Fleet museum.

 

[DEWLine]

Known Connies (according to memory-Alpha). This also includes ones in the refit configuration.

Between this list and that paragraph from The Making of Star Trek about 1701's starship class entering service over a decade before 1701 herself...I am convinced that we are looking at multiple production blocks sent into service over decades.

 

[The Old Mixer]

Probably at least a day just to do a quick outside look at the ships.

Now I'm picturing the Montgomery Scott Tour--a TMP-style slow flyby sequence for every ship.

 

[Turtletrekker]

Now I'm picturing the Montgomery Scott Tour--a TMP-style slow flyby sequence for every ship.

With appropriate musical accompaniment for each ship.

 

[NCC-73515]

 

[Nerys Myk]

Right. It'canon again now that showed a 2066 connie. Some people thought it was retconned out in favor of the SNW version.

It. Never. Stopped. Being. Canon.

 

[cooleddie74]

The TOS look still happens. It's just not happening right now on SNW.

 

[USS Belmont]

I think with all the talk of a Star Trek:Legacy series, a new Prime universe movie and a Starfleet museum P+ show, I think I will do a “Nicholas Meyer” rewrite to pick out the best feature of each idea and come up with:


“A Night at the Starfleet Museum” a Star Trek movie - Starring Jeri Ryan as Captain Seven!

hmmm…list is missing the Defiant.

the TOS look is never gonna happen on SNW. The show even changed up the Monster Maroons.

 

[fireproof78]

It. Never. Stopped. Being. Canon.

 

[NCC-73515]

The maroon was explicitly from another timeline.

 

[Ray Hardgrit]

The maroon was explicitly from another timeline.

An early clue that it was a horrifically wrong future.

 

[NCC-73515]

One that had to be eliminated at all cost!
Fire on the Rommies, destroy that ship, risk all-out war, but make that maroon disappear!

 

[David cgc]

hmmm…list is missing the Defiant.

The book was written between season 2 and 3, the Defiant hadn’t been made up yet. Don’t ask me why they didn’t use a name from the list, since that’s what they wrote it for.

 

[Nerys Myk]

For what it's worth. Terry Matalas shared this on his own Twitter feed and seems happy about it. Canon? Technically no, but hey, works for me.

Bummer. I was hoping my New Jersey Class story would take root.

interesting. I didn’t know that’s when the book was published.
