/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.

Wait, what’s going on with those refit nacelles on the o.g Connie hull

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

I’m pretty sure that’s the design for the enterprise from Star Trek Phase II, a series that never got made; this design was then developed further into the now familiar refit from TMP

Huh…

Looks like that image specifically is from a fan-made version of Phase II, but yeah you’re spot-on.

I knew about Phase II, and that elements of it were merged into TMP and TNG, but I only remembered the triangular Enterprise concept that was later the basis of Discovery.

This all sent me down a rabbit hole where I learned things like Xon (originally a replacement for Spock) became Saavik, and Decker and Ilia were the basis for Riker and Troi.

Thanks!
