THEY LANDED THE WHOLE SHIP!
- Thread starter Mrcasio
- Start date
But current ships are built in space. Isn't it just in the JJ Abrams reboot that has ships built on the planet surface?
Oops... 
Did anybody mention "Dragon's Teeth," when they landed on the Vaadwaar homeworld? (Sorry if I missed it.) They couldn't exactly go looking for fruit and vegetables, however, it being nuclear winter and still inundated with gamma radiation and radiogenic particles.

I'm currently watching Season 2 again on DVD, and it's great seeing the first starship to ever land on a planet.
Good catch!

I loved the scenes of Voy flying up from the surface of that world, under attack.

You have to admit one thing, if nothing else.
VOYAGER is one FINE looking ship!

Her Captain ain't half bad either!

It's stupid that I don't have a model of Voyager
Agreed! One of my favorite eps! I generally like eps where they go ashore.
Also the ECH Doctor landed Voyager in "Workforce Pt 2" on that asteroid/planetoid to conceal Voyager from enemy sensors.
That ship was just always parking!
I ask you, is that what Star Trek is about? IS IT?

Rather than landing Voyager on those silly little feet and using magic fields to explain why the ship didn't tip forwards, I wish they'd just had the ship hover a few feet off the ground. It looked awesome in this ancient Trek comic strip (yes, the Enterprise could do this kind of thing long before JJ Abrams came onto the scene!)
Wasn't the Enterprise parked on a planet in IV?
That was the Klingon ship they'd stolen at the end of III.
Oh. I knew there was a great big ship in a a canyon.
Edit: I feel kind of embarrassed now. This is pretty big dumbness

Don't stress it. As Kirk said (in the same movie) "a ship is a ship".
Actually, the BOP landing on the planet may have been what sparked off the whole "landing a starship is kewl" trend that culminated in the Voyager. Thing is, there's a bit of a size difference
Kingdaniel - love that comic panel!

Did we see if the Bird of Prey had little itty bitty feet?
The Bird of Prey had feet, but they, like Voyager's, were magic too.
I think I read some TNG designer guy tried to make a cutaway and found they're too big to fit inside. Or something like that.

Wow, and we see the inspiration for the Captain's Yacht making its way to the surface. Guess the transporter system was out of order and new shuttlecraft wouldn't arrive before next Tuesday.

P.S. And the warp nacelles must contain a lot of hot air so the pylons wouldn't break off under their weight.
