Spoilers The Strange New Worlds Starship Thread™

NCC-2100 appearance or I boycott!

 

If we take the FJ stuff into canon (at least, more completely than it has been), IIRC it was taken as a snapshot in time of various records in the Enterprise database during her brief presence in the past in the events shown in "Tomorrow is Yesterday". Not sure how anyone got this information in-universe, but that's not really relevant.

This would have taken place during the first season of TOS and the Federation-class dreadnought was outlined with a dotted line, saying it was "Under Construction". So, sadly, I doubt will see any of those leviathans floating around out there. Maybe the class ship at trials or in drydock (with the "Under Construction" moniker applying to the production run of vessels), but that would be it.

 

There ya go. It's not warp nacelle science

COMPUTER: Computed and recorded, dear.
KIRK: Computer, you will not address me in that manner. Compute.
COMPUTER: Computed, dear.
KIRK: Mister Spock, I ordered this computer and its interlinking systems repaired.
SPOCK: I have investigated it, Captain. To correct the fault will require an overhaul of the entire computer system and a minimum of three weeks at a Starbase.
KIRK: I wouldn't mind so much if it didn't get so affectionate.
SPOCK: It also has an unfortunate tendency to giggle.

 

The fallacy of your argument here is the fact that the ship's main computer is a component of the Enterprise. It is not the ship itself.

 

O RLY

it's a romance including one of the biggest and most essential parts of the ship

 

A good argument to my point
However I'm not suggesting we shouldn't argue or disagree. Otherwise they might as well switch off the internet (though that might be a good idea).
Rather that this argument is pointless as the quote about the Enterprise being a character is presumably a metaphor. There are times when language needs to be precise. Science and law for example. But Trek is art and in art people use metaphor all the time. How exactly does one "Take up arms against a sea of troubles?"
So let's drop the subject and get back to arguing why a CGI render of a fictional spaceship from the future doesn't look exactly like a wooden model of the same fictional spaceship made 50 years earlier.

I don't think people calling the Enterprise are meaning it a metaphorical sense.

 

Not sure if this has been discussed earlier: How many Engineering Refits are there going to be for the Enterprise?
Or will they try to make the two versions work together?

 

They don't need to.

How many times did the Enterprise sets change in the TOS movies? Or Bird of Prey interior?

Different production, different design.

 

Well, on the up-side, at least it doesn't look like a freakin' beer brewery.

 

First image isn't working.

 

Yeah people don't embed images from Wiki sites, they don't work. Re-upload them somewhere else.

Based on the file name it's the Engineering from that one Short Trek.

 

The production staff has redesigned and extended many of the sets in order to better serve the TV series.

 

To be fair, we are just a brain piloting around a meat suit.

 

Must have taken that three week layover, since it's never mentioned again. First season weirdness strikes again?

 

Any chance Engineering sets will look like the TOS ones when Kirk takes overr?

 

No, because it isn't the 1960s.

And it wouldn't make any sense, how would they go from that large in SNW to the size of a garage?

 

To be fair, miniaturization is one of the hallmarks of technological advancement. You could probably fit 1,000 Apollo Mission computers into a modern cell phone.

 

I bet when they shut the AR wall off and it's just the screens forming a monochrome 'wall' around set it looks pretty similar

But joking aside, if they really do want to change it up all they have to do is load a new file. This virtual production stuff is honestly waaaay too cool.

Your estimate is very low.
