    Is it worth watching Disc?

    I stopped watching after Season 3. Just couldn't take it anymore and life's too short.

    Contest: VOTE Which Federation Starship Class is your favourite and why?

    Constitution Refit closely followed by the Excelsior because these two look good from every angle.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Lower Decks 4x06 - "Parth Ferengi's Heart Place"

    I absolutely loved the towel tube grubs in the honeymoon suite.

    Crew Rank Insignia?

    So Lt JG Montgomery Scott had one full stripe. At this point I'm convinced they're messing with us on purpose.

    Crew Rank Insignia?

    Of all the various Trek ranks I like them least because you need a HD publicity shot to tell the rank of a person.

    Spoilers Star Trek: Strange New Worlds 2x03 - "Tomorrow and Tomorrow and Tomorrow"

    A very touching episode. The obvious plot hole bugs me though. If Romulans started a war with Earth in the 21st century and basically destroyed the planet it seems a bit of a stretch that Humans were able to recover and build the UEF and Connies.

    Crew Rank Insignia?

    Spock wore gold and had the Command star insignia while Mitchell wore sandy brown and had a globe insignia, so I'd go with Spock as XO.

    Crew Rank Insignia?

    I'd say Pike and Marcus were both full admirals but Marcus being CnC got an extra pip. Similar to how the CnC's fleet admiral uniform in TUC was slightly different to Fleet Admiral Carwright's uniform. Of course the narrow-extra wide-narrow stripes muddy the water so at this point I think it's...

    Crew Rank Insignia?

    I agree. But I prefer the broken stripes as they're easier to make out than thin and thick stripes. It's especially cumbersome with the red and blue SNW stripes.

    Crew Rank Insignia?

    Yes, also Finney and Giotto were referred to as Lt. Commander despite wearing Cmdr. braid. There have always been rank inconsistencies throughout Trek but SNW set a new record with 7 main characters out of 9 having rank inconsistencies. 8 out of 10 if you feel like counting Lt./Lt. Cmdr. Jenna...

    Crew Rank Insignia?

    Not really. There's nothing to understand here other than that the rank stripes simply don't match the dialogue. Una was refered to as Lt. Cmdr. in her crew file in S01E01 but wore 2 full stripes. Hemmer wore 2 full stripes but was refered to as Lieutenant in S01E04. Chapel wears 2 full stripes...

    Spoilers Starship Design in Star Trek: Picard

    The Museum people changed the Saratoga's registry from 1887 to 31911 so I'm pretending that they changed 75633 to 74205 as well.

    Why not use the Stargazer?

    Because Matalas like Jack is a Constitution fanboy

    Spoilers Are commodores of Starfleet admirals?

    Jameson and Quinn technically were 1 pip admirals.

    Spoilers Are commodores of Starfleet admirals?

    Because they didn‘t bother to make a 2 pip rank pin.

    Enterprise D saucer recovery

    I‘m a bit confused. Why the TMP flashback and why are Star Wars vessel used to lift the saucer section?

    PIC S3 Ships & Tech

    Um, no. Not by a long shot. They changed about everyting to make the NX-01 look older than an Akira, while here the objective was clearly to keep the 23rd century look intact as much as possible.

    Spoilers Starship Design in Star Trek: Picard

    Well I think there's place between the Constitution (2245) and the Excelsior class (228x) for at least one other big capital ship class. Or maybe that failed too and made the Constitution refit a better option.
  19. Spike730

    Thats it. I dont consider Disc , SNW , or Picard cannon

    Well, what is or is not canon isn't really up to us. But I feel the franchise has reached a point where the canon is so large that it doesn't feel coherent anymore. That's bound to happen with so many hours of TV, but I think certain decisions by current TPTB (all the retconns goind on in DIS...

    Spoilers Starship Design in Star Trek: Picard

    Yes, but a Constitution was replaced with a Constitution. So that was a period of stagnation.
