    I'm happy with the Titan as the Enterprise-G. The F looked like a bloated Voyager with Enterprise-E nacelles slapped onto it.

    There had to be a 90-year period before the J, where Starfleet Command decided, "That's it! No more Enterprises!"

    It's the only explanation that makes sense.

    Do we know when the J was first launched? A ship that size you'd think would be around for a century. Although with the way Enterprises go... probably not.

    We don’t even know if the timeline with the J in it exists

    It was in service in 2573 in the alternate future where the Delphic Expanse was at least 50,000 light-years across and the Federation was at war with the Sphere Builders, but who knows what her commissioning date was. She could have been around a while by that point.

    Just walking around the outer corridor ring is like walking the Appalachian Trail.

    "XO, I need you to do a spot inspection of Deck 5, aft end. Make sure the crew are keeping her ship shape"

    "Yes Captain. Could you feed my cat? I should be back next week."

    The crew of the Enterprise-I endorses pineapple on pizza across the entire Federation, causing a costly civil war the likes of which the galaxy has never seen.

    In the ENT episode "Azati Prime," it's mentioned it's in the 26th century, 400 years after Captain Archer's time.

    Tech is advancing too quickly. Makes sense. Though you gotta wonder why Discovery is usable 800 years later.

    I've not seen any fans of that ship.

    With the nonstop war, the fuel crisis and finally the Burn, I got the feeling that tech had gone very regressive during that time period, almost what we might call a dark age. And like a dark age, there are sometimes still historical advancements but some stuff gets lost, or is just too difficult to keep doing.

    I like the Connie 3 class. I’m okay with the ship being the enterprise but I do wish they’d have started adding digits instead of letters

    IE NCC-91701.

    The only problem I have with the -G is that they should've made it a brand new ship instead of them Renaming the Titan. Also I find it a little full circle that the Enterprise-G is a Neo-Constitution-class or Constitution III class starship as the Original NCC-1701 was a Constitution I class.

    also it is way too early for the -G. I still think whatever problems The -F had should've been fixed and they should've been sent on their way.

    The Trek Yards with Drexler on the J was great. If I remember correctly, he envisioned it as an Federation intergalactic ship.It was big because the missions were going to be ultra long duration.

    As we've seen in Discovery, while Federation ships get big, they don't quite get that big again (more or less) and follow an entirely different design plan. So maybe instead of the J being the next in a linear sequence of design, it was a tangent of sorts like the Enterprise D was. Because the Enterprise E and Enterprise G (and to a lesser degree the F) owe a lot more to the Excelsior-Constitution "cruiser design" than they D.

    The J could just as much represent the Federation doing something new with *just* that class for a specific reason.

    Makes me wonder if there is a starship with the registry 90210 and there are people from Beverly hills on it.

    So you're telling me, instead of Picard Season 3 being the origin story of the Enterprise-G, and 3 of its officers (with Raffi and Sevens origins stretching out much longer), you'd rather an all new ship, maybe of the same class, maybe a new class, to make a 10 second cameo at the end of Episode 10?

    And you're saying that is better storytelling than a 10 episode origin story where the name "Enterprise" is earned as the ship acts as the hero ship of the Enterprise-D's final, maybe greatest mission together?

    *squints eyes*

    Seriously?
