Spoilers OMG i just realized that...

[Unimatrix Q]

the Enterprise-D was in active duty for a whole year, until the shutdown

Now i really want to read a novel about this time

 

[locborg]

Until they sorted out how to disconnect the ships from each other, a more analogue vessel surely came in handy…

 

[Racefuel]

That is what is strongly implied, yes. It makes sense given the need for rescue, support and security in Sol System after the Frontier Day attack.

As I said in another post, my hope is that Riker finally got his long standing wish of really commanding the Enterprise in that time

What makes you think that?

 

[Racefuel]

What makes you think that?

The “one year later” and the crew are only just then shutting the Enterprise down

 

[Dukhat]

We don’t know that the ship was on active duty though. It could have been on display at the museum for a year and they’re just now putting it back in hangar 12.

 

[Unimatrix Q]

What makes you think that?

As @Racefuel said.

And i doubt simply displaying it at the museum was a big concern for Starfleet at that time

I’m still not seeing why it would be on active duty for a year. Once the Borg ship was destroyed, everything went back to normal.

You’re probably right, but it IS a little strange that Matalas decided to flash the “one year later” caption before that scene as opposed to after, which would’ve made more narrative sense within the episode. Almost like he’s setting up potential stories by doing so.

Well, it was also strange that Seven is starting a shakedown cruise one year later on a ship she’s been presumably already captain of for the past year. Methinks some things weren’t thought out all that well. Or changed around at the last minute, which seems to be the hallmark of this show.

Option for a D film.

Probably got repairs, refit and upgrades. Also likely took some time for Crusher to de-Borg Starfleet and for all the changelings to be discovered.

With which crew?

 

[Nerys Myk]

With which crew?

The OGs

 

[TheMadCloner]

The OGs

I would say unlikely given how this season was treated as their farewell, but I guess never say never…

 

[Dukhat]

Like how the Luna class Titan got repairs, refit and upgraded to the Connie III Titan?

It’s just a name.

 

[Racefuel]

Having a captain Riker film, utilizing the new bridge set with a new cast that takes place in that gap year could be pretty fun.

 

[Dukhat]

It’s just a name.

If that was the case, they wouldn’t have needed to rename it.

 

[TheMadCloner]

If that was the case, they wouldn’t have needed to rename it.

For some people’s head canon, it will never be renamed.
