Destiny Trilogy...
Re: Destiny Trilogy...
Anyway wasn't the books originally developed from a picture of a downed NX-02? Or was that included in it?

Re: Destiny Trilogy...
Not sure which came first, but there is a pic of the wrecked NX-02 :

Old NX, Modern runabouts?
What does defeat mean to you?
Nothing it will never come. Death before defeat. I don’t bend or break. I end, if I meet a foe capable of it. Victory is in forcing the opponent to back down. I do not. There is no defeat.

Re: Destiny Trilogy...
I think it's a depiction of a TNG/DS9 discovery of it. If you look closely they're wearing VOY/early DS9 style uniforms as well.

Yeah it was discovered sometime in the 2370's.
Interesting just the bow is damaged and not even that much.

Re: Destiny Trilogy...
I love the image, but the scale of the ship seems off to me. It's a good deal smaller than it should be, IMO.

Very well preserved.

Re: Destiny Trilogy...
I never noticed that. Seems like the ship shrunk by a third or more. You can just tell by the bridge module.GrahamKennedy wrote:I love the image, but the scale of the ship seems off to me. It's a good deal smaller than it should be, IMO.

Scale off? Perish the thought.

The scale looks more like the size I would've made the NX-class, personally. Not the way it was presented on-screen, of course.

Re: Destiny Trilogy...
There's a guy looking in one of the windows on the saucer on the lower left. Looks about the right size to me. The NX's weren't that big.
Re: Destiny Trilogy...
No they were not. Actually I think those people are not a constant scale. I am just judging by the people by the bridge.Tyyr wrote:There's a guy looking in one of the windows on the saucer on the lower left. Looks about the right size to me. The NX's weren't that big.

Re: Destiny Trilogy...
It's a long lens as opposed to a wide so it seems to skew the scale a little.

Re: Destiny Trilogy...
Well I went on DITL and used the size charts to put an NX next to a Danube... and the scale really does look quite far off to me.
