• There seems to be an uptick in Political comments in recent months. Those of us who are long time members of the site know that Political and Religious content has been banned for years. Nothing has changed. Please leave all political and religious comments out of the forums.

    If you recently joined the forums you were not presented with this restriction in the terms of service. This was due to a conversion error when we went from vBulletin to Xenforo. We have updated our terms of service to reflect these corrections.

    Please note any post refering to a politician will be considered political even if it is intended to be humor. Our experience is these topics have a way of dividing the forums and causing deep resentment among members. It is a poison to the community. We appreciate compliance with the rules.

More Star trek pics

My Constitution class blueprints are signed by James Doohan :) NCC-1701 was indeed built at the San Fransisco Naval Yard, assembly took place in orbit. NCC-1701D was built at the Utopia Planitia yards on Mars.
 
Oh, and I have a cutaway poster of the Enterprise II from Star Trek - The Motion Picture. The poster itself came from a friend who passed away a long time ago; two of my other high school buddies had it framed and gave it to me. Definitely one of my prized possessions.

I believe I had this same poster when I was a yoot. If I remember correctly it said the refit Enterprise had a max speed of Warp 12. This would have been before Star Trek TNG when Gene Roddenberry decided to make Warp 10 the known maximum speed. (Although in the final TV episode, "All Good Things" we see Federation starships travelling at Warp 13)

I still have my Star Trek Blueprints and my Franz Joseph Starfleet Technical Manual. One was a gift from my late aunt (she paid 5 USD) and the other was a Christmas gift from my mother in, I think, 1975. I'd have to be literally starving before I sold them.

NOTE: Even back then, there were continuity problems between the tech manuals and the televised series. I won't list them all, but just as an example, the Tech Manual Bridge has two doors, while the series had only one. Nerds argue over these things.
 
NCC-1701D has only one public-area bathroom, and carries a huge rubber ducky and a DC-3. Most importantly one of the medical scanners measures your health insurance remaining... it ever flatlined and 'He's dead Jim!'. :)
