The station and single nacelle ship are all kinds of silly. Glad they didn’t pull too much from that frame.
The single nacelle is seriously unsettling, and I’m not sure why
I think it’s kind of neat.
I feel so old right now.
Mat Damon. His face aging.
Right there with ya, buddy.
because you got used to seeing the double nacelle ones.
if it were the other way around (they would have established the single nacelle as standard), you would end up thinking the other way around.
You are probably right
I’m thinking it’s the dong-like look.
I think it’s cause our brains interpret that as an unbalanced shape that would fall over.
It’s the unibrow of ship design.
And Kelvin?
The top one was just the hangar.
I’m shaming those ships.
I like that the Enterprise shuttle has a metal detector sticking out the back, to show the scale for the props dept to build it to be about the size of a golf cart.
I’d buy this commemorative stamp set from the post office.
LOL for a second I thought the shuttlecraft had a trailer hitch.
Tribble truck-nuts.
Pity the poor engineers squashed into a space the size of a studio apartment on that one nacelle ship.
Comments are nitpicking the two pictures, but no one says anything about the Klingon ship, because Klingon ships are always badass.
But on the subject of the single nacelle, I always liked the original concepts for the fleet, from the scouts and tugs to the dreadnaughts. There was something authentic about taking the same components and reusing them in different configurations for different purposes. Why would you reinvent something when you have a proven design, at least for the first generation of ships.
