"THE EMPATH" is almost certainly the best example of the brotherhood of Kirk, Spock, and McCoy. You'd be hard pressed to find a better one.

Season 3 has some clunkers and duds, but that episode isn't one of them.
I would think so, although I don't want to say "yes definitely" because it's outside my area of focus. By the Interwar period, which is where my knowledge lies, most ships made port fairly frequently, and the costs of mailing a letter were very standardised, so letters tended to be of a predictable, mailable length. Even during the Second World War most sailors and soldiers were able to send their letters on a regular basis. (Also, military censorship rules combined with a lack of real news encouraged relatively short letters.)
Still, the "serial letter" features heavily as a narrative tool in Patrick O'Brien's "Master and Commander" novels, and the man's attention to historical detail is such that I expect he found at least a few real-world examples before adding it to his novels.
The blueprints direct us to go behind the viewscreen.
Watch Kirk's hammed-up facial grimacing at the end of NAKED TIME's Act Four, right after he jerks his head back in his seat. Those two shots are all the proof we need that the center seat has a crap option.
Which version?
The mid-1970s version which I accessed from my library's reference section.
My guess would be these from 1975. Those are ones my friend had back then. The first official onesWhich one is that? I've seen different versions...not sure which one was "mid-1970s". I wouldn't be surprised if there was more than one of them someone drafted in the 70s
alrighty then
Those are the ones.

I'm not keen on a lot of Star Trek Online's ships, but they really nailed it with the Odyssey-class. It's very distinctive and graceful, and I'm glad it got to be a proper Enterprise in the end. For 5 minutes.

I still don't like the Ent-F, even after all those years. Yes, it looks sleek, fast, powerful.... but too much like a predator. It isn't what Starfleet is about (even though I can understand a more 'combative' Starfleet ensued after the Dominion War and the Borg threats).
I never got that vibe from it myself. To me it looks like the designer used the stripped-down and pointy Sovereign-class as a starting point, then made it chunkier, curvier and more extravagant, so it was more like the big friendly Galaxy-class. I can just imagine the thing having carpets on the inside and lounges everywhere.
^My apologies, I was confusing the ENT-F with the ENT-E. I don't like that one.
Now that I look at this one, I like it slightly better (but still not too much). Seems indeed to be 'between' the D and E in some respects.

That photo doesn't show an NCC-1701-F registry, it shows a NCC 97074. The "Enterprise F"?
