Spoilers The Starfleet Museum

It was the only ship that participated in that war?

No, but it was present at the cessation of hostilities.

 

[Dukhat]

Well, then, I’m convinced. It certainly earned a place in the history books like all those other ships did.

 

[Macintosh]

Maybe Discovery is the starship equivalent of those Z-list celebrities where nobody quite understands why they're famous, they just are and somehow contrive to keep popping up all over the place.

Historical markers exist for sillier reasons. So, yeah, I don't see the issue.

Surrender of Japan on the USS MISSOURI is considered a major historical event too. So why not Discovery? Because it had a short service life?

It's not an obscure footnote, they had a big ceremony honouring the ship and the crew for their part in ending the war. Medals were pinned to their chests and everyone clapped.

Presumably someone from the press was present.

Well we all know we can't trust the press

After all those tabloids telling me Elvis worked at a Subway in Florida you're DAMN RIGHT I can't trust the press.

It was a Papa Johns.

 

[cooleddie74]

The same tabloid told me Papa Johns was actually a time traveler from another universe and from THE PAST so sell your lies somewhere else.

I wonder why the Enterpise B wasn't shown?

 

[JoeZhang]

I wonder why the Enterpise B wasn't shown?

Doesn't arrive until Tuesday.

 

[Nerys Myk]

I wonder why the Enterpise B wasn't shown?

Wasn't its time in the rotation. It's in the garage.

 

[cooleddie74]

Captain Harriman is way too busy trying to roll back the light-years on the 1701-B's odometer.

Destroyed in action.

Destroyed in action.

Or they were rotating the exhibits, or it's undergoing routine maintenance, or it's on a museum exhibit tour somewhere, or they thought that having the first and second Excelsior-class ship on display was overkill and all those extra protuberances were really a bad idea anyway, and it was stripped for parts and left in a surplus depot somewhere... loads of possible explanations. Not every ship ends up in the Starfleet Museum.

this showed up in my youtube recommendations. A video from the United States Naval Acadamy Museum comparing real ones to the one in Picard.

But what have they done for me lately?

Cameron almost has a Starfleet uniform in that picture.
