The Ships of Star Trek: A Closer Look

USS Enterprise

USS Enterprise

Star Trek defined TV science fiction in the 1960s. Set ahead of its time (around 20th century), Star Trek showcased several technological wonders such as starships. Largely influenced by the starships of the TV series, some fans try to build their own Star Trek ships.

For non-Trekkies, a starship refers to a manned spacecraft that can travel and transport a crew across interstellar distances at great speeds. Star Trek ships are able to do that through spacecraft propulsion technologies such as warp drive.

One of the most well-known sci-fi spacecrafts ever is found in Star Trek, USS Enterprise, was the Flagship of the Federation. Since the TV series began, seven Star Trek ships have used the name and have gone to places “where no one has gone before.”

Popular as well is the starship that was under the command of Captain James T. Kirk. Touted as the starship that started it all, the USS Enterprise NCC-1701 launched from the San Francisco yards that revolve around the Earth in the year 2245. The original starship, which was used in the TV series, was designed by the first art director of Star Trek.

On the other hand, the starship that was under the command of Captain Jean-Luc Picard is the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-E. This Star Trek ship launched in 2371 and was able to stop the Borg’s assimilation of humanity the following year.

Another ship that was under the command of Picard was the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D, which was launched in 2363 from the Utopia Planitia Shipyards that revolved around Mars. The ship was ruined in 2371 during a mission to halt the devastation of the Veridian system.

It’s easy to dress up in Star Trek uniform costumes to act like the crew of a Federation Starship.

Another Star Trek Movie in the Works?

by Dave

Weeks before the Star Trek movie premiered in theaters in May 2009, fans had buzzed about the possibility of the sequel of the all-time favorite sci-fi movie. Even the movie producers are giving some hints that a follow-up movie may be released in 2010 or 2011 with the same cast.

The producers said it would depend on the box-office success of the revival of the Star Trek film. In fact, the producers have already hired screenwriters for the movie’s screenplay. And with the movie’s $76 million opening sales, Trekkies may have something to look forward to in the next two years.

According to reports, the Star Trek movie sequel would focus on the “unpredictable future.” This is because fans already know the fate of the characters—who lived as well as who died—so there’s no point in subjecting certain characters to danger. One of the writers of the movie said there was a need to find ways to make the future of the characters hard to foresee so that when they’re caught in difficult and threatening circumstances, the risk of death would become real.

In particular, online rumor has it that the Star Trek movie sequel would be about the war between Earth and the Romulans. This happened from 2156 to 2160, a time-frame that’s two more years into the future from the Star Trek Enterprise.

In addition, several unforgettable characters would be included in the sequel such as Dr. Tolian Soran and Khan Noonien Singh. Their lives might be altered by the developments in the follow-up Star Trek movie.
