McSpanky posted:Yes, it seems highly reminiscent of the modernized refits of the Constitution from STO. Almost to the point of someone cribbing from notes during class. Eh, it's a little bit like those (which are now 10+ years old and haven't been revamped so they're looking pretty shoddy) but even those were a lot more coherent.

You know, for some reason I remember those being a lot uglier. I think you're on to something, making a worse design than release-era STO is pretty loving impressive.

I kind of appreciate both sides of the design coin - designs like the Ent-D and OG 1701 are gorgeous and iconic, but I don't hate some of the sleeker more modernized designs either, despite the fact that they stray a little from the norm. I think the Excalibur is pretty awesome, without going too overboard. Then again I'm a weirdo, my favorite Enterprise is the C, Ambassador class 4 lyfe (both the on-screen and concept versions own IMO)

They also work against common logic; even if old starships have their uses, why rebuild the old stock when you could produce completely new ships? Its not like the Federation is starving for resources, after all.

Its not like the Federation is starving for resources, after all. It really doesn't make sense when you consider they just made a brand new Stargazer model using the era appropriate Sovereign-class design language. Why make that new model and make that connection to Picard's character if you are only going to use that ship for one episode? Being honest, I'm still expecting season 3 to feature this new ship just long enough for our heros to leave spacedock before we wind up somewhere in Los Angeles County for the rest of the season.

Never having played the game I do really like that Excalibur too, it looks like a cross between a Constituion and Sovereign, which feels like the platonic ideal of the Starfleet ship design to me

So, apropos of nothing, but artist Mike Maihack did this sketch of Mariner for Star Trek Day; https://twitter.com/mikemaihack/status/1568030078981885954 Which also lead me to this variant cover for Star Trek #400 by Chris Fenoglio https://twitter.com/ChrisFenoglio/status/1567483040598720512 was thinking of grabbing a copy, but I'm not sure if I want to plop down $14 for a comic book.

Future 9/11 board: Enterprise Star Trek: Nemesis (averted) Star Trek 2009 Star Trek Into Darkness Star Trek Beyond Star Trek: Discovery Star Trek: Picard Season 1 Star Trek: Picard Season 3 21 years, 8 future 9/11s At this rate we should reach the 11th future 9/11 sometime in 2029, although that doesn't take into account the acceleration in rate in the last five years.

How many 9/11s before 9/11 though DS9: Obsidian Order does a 9/11, Sisko does a 9/11, earth does a post 9/11 security state, dominion does a 9/11, I think Kira did a couple TNG: Wolf 359, Hoosnak, crystalline entity Voyager: I think it has a couple but I can't remember

Sisko didn't do a 9/11 because nobody died. Wolf 359 isn't a 9/11 for obvious reasons.

About the ship for Picard season 3… it often feels like I’m the only Star Trek fan who doesn’t care even the slightest bit what the outside of a ship looks like.

Honestly same. The only Trek ship that got a “okay yeah that’s ugly” from me is the Inquiry class from Picard S1. And even then I think it was just because there were so many on screen at once.

Just make a drat show set after DS9 or Voyager and have it be a new ship just exploring the universe , have it be 23 episodes long per season, and have each individual episode be its own thing.

I mean it really feels like they’re setting up a Seven captaining the Titan show. If they can keep that episodic, I wouldn’t be against it.
