So if some makes a posting in this forum, they must have some sort of agenda? Sorry, I don't nor was I trying to go anywhere with it! I was just simply pointing out that the Romulan ship did have some sort of warp capability other then simple impulse power. I was speaking in general terms about the...

Robjkay - before you get all bent... "simple impulse power" is not my invention, it's a QUOTE FROM THE EPISODE. Secondly, I specifically referenced "power generation" not "warp capability" in my post. If you want to argue with me, that's fine, but don't argue with me a...

Yes we all know that in "Balance of Terror," the Romulans had cloaking devices (in the series Enterprise they messed it up being the Romulans did not have this technology at that time) but also there ships did have warp power! Maybe it was not powered the same way as Federation vessels, b...

You make an excellent point. CPH. I can't really explain why thos two races aren't further along than they were. All I can say is that Vulcan is often quite hidebound, and tied up in their own dogma and ritual; while the RSE seems to have huge disparities in their techical acheivement from field to...

Re: TF/ST

Here's a question for my fellow Transformers/Star Trek fans on here :) In last years CGI/Live Action Movie version of Transformers, they were able to use their transcanners to take on the form of earth based vehicles, so when Mikala looked at Bumblebee's engine, it looked just like a real engine yo...

Out of Universe, I read somewhere (I don't remember where, so the veracity of the information cannot be confirmed) that the Stargazer was originally intended to be a Connie. It was changed rather late in the day, and the name Constellation was chosen so they could redub already recorded footage of ...

Anyway I think it comes down to several options to why: 1. This is indeed a Constitution Class ship that for some reason remained in active Starfleet service far past the retirement of the Class as a whole, such as a training vessel. 2. This is indeed a Constitution Class ship that was in the servic...

Ships are rountinely decommissioned and recomissioned - during refits for example. Kirk's statement pretty plainly states that the ship will be recieving a new crew. The fact that the E-B was commissioned shortly thereafter implies that after decomissioning the ship was recomissioned under a differ...

But you do not know if the class served beyond ST6. Also between ST3 & 6 only amounts to 8 to 10 years which not that long of time to retire a whole class being the Excellsior was there replacement. We know that the E-A continued in service past ST6 due to Kirk's closing log. This is the final ...

What I am saying is in ST 3 it was stated that the Enterprise was due to be retired, of which over time (years) the rest of the class would have been retired to. That why we still see the Connie in ST6, now being we see a Connie wreak at Worf 359. It could have been taken off of mothball status fro...

I think it'd be kinda cool if it was the Enterprise-A lying there destroyed by the Borg - that's a real way for a ship to go. I could have just imagined it being a museum, going on a few 'luxury liner' cruises across the solar system and having tours round it, then when the Borg came having it go s...

The Excelsior design was at around 85-90 years old during the Dominion War, while the Miranda was at least that and and probably over a century old. When you consider that 20 years is enough for a whole new generation of weapons to be developed (per "Yesterday's Enterprise") the diference...

No, they were still around in ST6 and the E-A certainly didn't appear relegated to a secondary role, given that she was still being refit, and was given the task of escorting the Klingons to Earth. She may even have continued (renamed) past the launch of the E-B if we take Kirk's closing log from S...
