It gives me goose bumps to hear they have honoured Carl Sagan, by naming this a SAGAN class of ship.... fiction or not it is something I'm sure Carl would have approved of.
Easily one of my favorite starship designs of all time. The love the creators put into it is quite evident. I'd love to see a Stargazer show in the future.
I fell in love with the new Stargazer right away. The way how they made the LCARS on the control panels from the behind the scenes footage is jaw dropping.
Great synopsis, but I have noticed that many starship analysis videos like this think that the multi-level bridge design is merely for aesthetics and, as this video's narrator has speculated is "a trip hazard." As a technician who has spent more than enough of his years in combat zoned-based command centers, a multi-level bridge design allows all stations to view the main viewscreen at any time from almost any place on the bridge without getting in the way. It's that simple. I don't think I'm spilling state secrets when I tell you that even in 2010, our command centers were constructed so that all of us hoom-ahns assigned to the facility could see the display screens on the main wall effortlessly thanks to multi-level platformed floors. This design also allows for in-room component storage access, like transformer-rectifiers, capacitors, and the like. This is efficient real-world use of space, not just a choice made for a dramatic environment. It's one of those rare situations where actual logistics make for great cinematography. Stepping down from my soap box.
I wish they'd have a spin off series : Star Trek : Stargazer, where established Picard characters will live through adventures following the TNG formula.
@@lykan2 Yeah, lol why not. And I kind of have this idea for near the end of the season about an episode called "the big goodbye", Where we truly say goodbye to Picard because his synth body will do an EOL, then she becomes the captain and we have one episode after that, honoring Picard with a time travel that gives a twist to inner light, as the synth is program to make him live the rest of his life in that dream. But that's just me, I would find that a great homage to one of the best TNG "Picard" episodes: and we see him entering the coordinates where to go to, fulfilling a destiny. I know it's kind of esoteric, but that second-lifetime worth of experiences must have had an impact that he would return there for the final moments.
I don’t want any new “StAr TReK” shows until Kurtzman and all the other talentless hack _NuTrek_ writers are gone. Star Trek’s corpse has been ravaged enough.
It's possible, that control and monitoring consoles, being connected to every system and mechanism throughout the vessel, will unintentionally serve as a node, or hub, for power surges, from within and without the hull. With power measured in terrajoules it isn't surprising there would be an explosion. In my experience, from local lighting strikes , the display (television) is the most vulnerable component in the ship, err I mean house.
When they revamped the Discovery for the 32nd century they literally put flamethrowers in the walls of the bridge set that shoot off whenever the ship is "hit." Maybe somebody behind the scenes thought it would look cool but it is unintentionally hilarious, just balls of flame shooting out of random parts of the walls.
I've been a fan of Star Trek for about 55 years and I have to say that this new version of The Stargazer is my all-time personal favorite Starfleet ship.
The new Stargazer is a thing of beauty. I love the design of the ship itself, the bridge.... pretty much everything (including the muscle-car shuttlecraft). I would love to see a new series plotting the adventures of the ship and crew (so long as nothing to do with the casting is overly forced....)
This is one of my favorite ships currently in Star Trek. The Stargazer is such a beautiful ship. What a lost opportunity to not give us a USS Stargazer show with Captain Rios. That could have been a great show.
Helm is the pilot in control of maneuvering and thruster control. Navigation is the navigator who sets course way points and monitors any on course obstacles such as asteroid fields. So essentially the navigator sets the route and helps the pilot who is in control of when the ship actually moves manually, automatically, and can perform evasive maneuvering.
I am so glad to see that the lens flare control podium located port of the helm station has been implemented on the bridge. I wonder if it has any Borg enhancements on it! 😂😂
I would love for you to do all the ships in the finally episode of Picard. Just like you did this one. I love that last part and all the ships. It was very cool.
re: timestamp 7:53 "It's almost like they designed them for maximum dramatic effect. How strange." Okay Lieutenant Adam, you earned a new subscriber for that observation. Overall design of the Sagan-class U.S.S. Stargazer NCC-82893: 9.7 of 10.0 on the Way Cool Scale (rev. 2.1) Starship geek comment/question: dimensions (ft.-in.) are given on the profile diagram, but the beam was not specified. Looking at the photo diagram with descriptors, the length:width ratio of the combined saucer/2ndary hull section seems to be 3:2; so 1144 ft./348.7 m. to approximately 760 ft./230 ft.?
Like other ships, the bridge of the Stargazer is gorgeous! And fascinating! And yet, I can't help but feel, from a practical perspective, that they all seem like they have so much wasted, unused space! That bridge could have all the same stations and instruments, and cut the floor space by 1/4, or maybe even 1/3, if not more!
Fantastic design of ship. And with Seven as the captain on a field commission she is now one of the most important persons in the Federation being an ex-Borg and natural ambassador to the newly admitted Borg Collective the ship is appropriate to her field rank - which as an ambassador to a “societal group” would be senior to captain….. Perhaps the next series we might see is Star Trek “Seven and the Stargazer”? That would be a treat…
No love for the 4 nacelle class that was not mentioned? I know that she was a kitbash that we only saw a mangled and charred frame and then nothing else since but to leave the class in ignominy... : comforts the Cheyenne-class : Don't worry you lovely Lass, I remember you. 😛 I do hope that some more use of this ship and those gorgeous sets get used for season 3 of Picard but on into a 7 of 9 lead series. 😀
would be amazing to see a new spin off series with Jeri Ryan as captain, there are so many amazing stories that could be done with a series like this, I really like the new ship the designers did a spectacular job with it I hope it shows up in STO
Helm Control: Ship controls. (Pitch, Roll, Yaw and Thrust) Navigational Controls: Route planning, map locations and localized threats (ion storms, black holes, gravity wells, or other aspects that need to be avoided by the Helm)
So maybe it's just me, but I have one pretty minor gripe with the ship design. Overall I love it, but it bugs the hell out of me that they didn't invert the lower nacelles. It would have looked much cooler with the angled collectors on the front if the top ones were as is, and the bottom nacelles also had the long end on the outside. Other than that, I love the design a lot, and I love the feel of this generation of ships.
My understanding re the difference in Navigation and Helm Control - Helm Control is sub-light speeds, similar to a pilot, whilst navigation is stellar plotting and updating things such as stellar drift and cartographic charts to compensate for such things. For warp speeds, Navigation would provide updated information for Helm to use for course correction.
Agreed, navigation has a lot less to do with flying the ship and a lot more to do with plotting a course. Even ships today have that distinct difference between helm and navigation.
The nacels kinda look like they were designed to be jettisoned if damaged. Especially the bottom 2 that even look like they were added as an afterthought.
This is a good observation, as that was indeed a feature of both the Constitution-Class Enterprise 1701 and A, as well as the Galaxy Class Enterprise D.
Really good ship. I am a fan of this size of vessel, particularly if there are few to no civvies aboard. I would have partially integrated the 2 underside nacelles, while making the top 2 modular, with the option of installing weapons systems or cargo or quarters as alternative modules.
Its such a great ship and I adore it! That said, hasn't it been implied that we aren't getting the stargazer in season 3? guessing its gonna be something else.
@@Strash1892 , maybe 7 of 9 will show up having became captain after all an modified it to her standards , then maybe helpn Agnus keep the alliance going with Picard as the all mighty Admiral we all know he truly is , I'm rambling but it would be nice tho, an to also see more of the Amarda formed in the season finale. Those ships looked so good , I love the Ross class to , shoot I loved um all
I think it is wonderful in it's design and I look forward to seeing more of her last in Season five of Picard Thanks for sharing this enjoyable in-depth look at her
When I was younger, I use to draw Star Trek style ships with 4, 5, and even 6 "engines". One of the ships I drew had 3 "saucers"...One main saucer and two smaller ones staggered above and below the main saucer with 8 "engines". I still wish I had them. They weren't bad drawings, especially for a young kiddo.
0:57 If you look to the right of the Stargazer you see what looks like an Excelsior-class. Interesting to think they were still in service at the start of the 25th Century.
That is the Excelsior-II class! After losing so many excelsiors at the end of their service during the Dominion War, looks like Starfleet upgraded the excelsior to the Obena Class (From Lower Decks) and the Excelsior-II Classes!
From the Excelsior to the Galaxy-class, it seemed like nacelles were getting smaller in proportion to the starships they were installed on. Which made strategic sense since they are the most vulnerable targets on a starship. But then, despite multiple major conflicts, Starfleet seemingly decided that longer nacelles that are easier to hit were the way to go.
This ship feels as much as a home as the next Apple store cranked up 100x. Imagine you had to wander through a maze of random lights and reflective surfaces...
I didn't realise there were spoilers for the latest episode of Picard in here and I stupidly sat there thinking...wait, wait, wait, when did all this happen? Before sensing a dark shift in the force...I must catch up with my Picard lol :)
It is a beautiful ship, in and out. I feel/hope they show it a LOT more in Season 3 due to the fact there was so much WORK put into it. Seems a shame if not.
Those blue circles you're calling warp field governors, look almost identical to the one that was part of the impulse engine on the Constitution refit (from TMP, TWOK, etc). The original plans for that called it a "plasma stream deflection assembly". Other plans labeled it the "impulse deflection crystal". It would seem to me much more likely to be something related to the impulse engines, therefore. But, having said that, that structure in the Constitution refit did rest at the top of the plasma conduit leading directly down to the warp core. Perhaps the Sagan class has two warp cores?
Also idk but is the Picard show on the same timeline as discovery season 4? Meaning is Picards future leading to the burn or is that timeline an alternative history??
I really like the bridge/meeting room combo and colors. I would just replace the stairs with ramps. Or possibly level everything out. Get into a firefight and start tossing crew around those stairs will kill some one.
It's like this, I am a fan of Star Trek in passing. My general love of Sci-fi mandates that I at least care about Trek. I have watch all content, up to and including the bad "robot" movies. DS9 is my favorite, followed by TNG, then Voyager then the originals. Now movies is mercy. I like them all. Roughly in order of release. 2 as the hest, generations as the worst, and the new ones at the bottom of the list. Anyways, I watch these videos all the time, as the only Trek content I watch on here. The reason is because of you Adam. I watch you, not what you talk about. You could narrate root canals and I'd watch lol
Thanks for another great video/briefing. Well Done! As a suggestion: USS Pegasus . Yes some of the story is probably classified. Could there be any successors? A?, B?, C?, . . . Would we know or would they be classified? or cloaked? or part of Section 31? Perhaps rumors of development/testing/construction at area 51? Please note the coincidence/conspiracy of information that ends with a 1.
@@robertsparks3685 - I could, but it would still be a fictional universe (though one that brings me much happiness), and "classification" would still make as much sense as battery-flavored lollipops. That said, writers keeping things under wrap, as not to spoil a pending storyline? That's a type of classification I can understand...outside of my years in the IC.
I did like the ship mostly except for the nacelle struts on the top and bottom they could have been integrated into the secondary hull on the ventral side
I’d like to see a star fleet massive ship like this!! That houses like 5-10 of a battle Cruisers the size of the defiant class ship!! That can detach from the main ship and swarm the ship or ships there fighting!!!!
The small turbo lifts never made any sense to me. I suppose you could use the transporter to get larger objects between floors but that didn't seem common in the older treks.
There are very few ships that can use a 4-cell or look good with a 4-cell warp drive and this ship that you're talking about now looks perfect with all four warp cells. I would like to make a life-sized model of that spaceship.
I love quadruple nacelle ships. Rikers enterprise from the last episode of tng was awesome Although something I've always wanted to see....the brige be something akin to the defiant. A triple or quadruple seperater. A single ship that is its own mini fleet. A saucer battleship, bridge be a light maneuverable attack cruiser, and the rear section be a fleet supper ship.
The upside down shot of the Sagan glass looks like the little fighter class starship that you get on that classic video game where you're going from left to right and a little bit up a little bit down and shooting all the guys coming from the top of the screen down that video game anyways it looks like that little ship with an explosion coming off of it with the saucer section behind it like that kind of funny
3:15 I always heard these were part of the impulse engines considering we saw these on the Miranda and Excelsior class ships, on the excelsior they were on the saucer no where near the warp nacelles or even engineering for that mater. Hitting like simply for the berserk Alpha 5 reference.
Another great episode! I love your infusion of humour! I'm laughing my (what's the Klingon word for Butt?) Off! 🤣 I'm absolutely loving the walk through.
Speaking of large screens and lots of lights... I am an air traffic controller. Our radar rooms literally look like the bridge of the Enterprise, until you realize all the panels are the same at every position. You learn by doing.
They must be sure that those Borg upgrades securely hold up. Because the bridge is very exposed and has a window-viewscreen together. Older ships had a holographic viewscreen, that wasn't a vindow. They probably were very confident in their shields. Altough Jurati was able to transport right trough them onto the bridge.
@@DrewLSsix I automatically thought a window is thinner than a wall, hence less secure. . I watched some UA-cam videos where plans for these ships were shown. But you are right, the skylights make it very exposed. I guess they (TV-show artistic team) was going to what looks good in TV. I wish they had thought about it more thougrally.
I love the ship. I love the video. I love the channel. But what I love most is the fact that these artists and designers and producers aren't just building a fancy set. Science fiction, throughout it's history, has presaged nearly every development and achievement of mankind. Sometimes by hundred of years. Internationally and unintentionally. And now, the 'second generation ' of designers are coming to fore, bringing the latest developments in the fleet. These folks are not just building a TV show, they are creating the real and actual future. The cell phone was inspired by the communicator of TOS. A space shuttle was named the ENTERPRISE ! This is a moment of fiction creating reality. Of synchronicity unparalleled. And thank God a wonderful genius created the original. We could have had a galaxy full of haters and bigots. But Roddenberry made one of inclusion, equality and inquiry. Thank you. Thank him. Make it so....
On side could be dedicated to ships shields and weapons, while the other could be dedicated to power and engines. Or By the design you would think that the would be able to separate it into 2 ships? So in an attack they could double the defense.
More Stargazer. A spinoff with Rios in the interim period before Pecard season 2. Or, bring him back from the past with his sweetie and her kid. Episodic like Strange New Worlds. The whole crew is too good to let go.
If the ship is shook, Captain and anyone else in those centre seats is going down those steps, ouch!. However, I hope 7 is able to retain her field commission and it's made permanent.
5:38 wow! there is two bigger rooms(separated by literally 'open space') with ample windows, the front ( observation lounge or conference lounge) is for the captain's staff meetings and ..... 'social functions', and the other is what I could guess is where the lower ranking ship's staff go to have there parties in the back, ...... so we gotta 'mullet' (business in the front and party in the back) situation or like a social dichotomy goin on behind the bridge.
I'm glad there's so many shows but I want more trek video games. Sto is all well and good if you have internet and don't mind starship gacha but give me armada 4 or command 4
Really interesting bridge design. However, regarding where the helmsman and navigator sitting so far forward of the command crew, it seems like the Captain would need to shout his orders to them. I seriously doubt the bridge would be so quiet that they could hear the captain in his/her normal voice volume.
I would have thought that the Prometheus Class would have taken precedence over a Constellation class refit. The Constellation is larger though. I don't have HBO max so I can't keep track of all these offshoots until bootleg videos come out 🤣 At least they don't have lens flare generators 😆 And I am old enough to have watched reruns of TOS...and that one where Daystrom's computer went crazy was one of my favorites. Even Daystrom himself went nuts in that episode and had to be sedated.
It gives me goose bumps to hear they have honoured Carl Sagan, by naming this a SAGAN class of ship.... fiction or not it is something I'm sure Carl would have approved of.
Easily one of my favorite starship designs of all time. The love the creators put into it is quite evident. I'd love to see a Stargazer show in the future.
Agree. If only the writers had put the same heart into the script lol

I love how you point out how things go boom in the consuls, when I build starships I rarely put fireworks inside them.
Exactly, I would think the bridge will be the most protected space on the ship.
Making the bridge a death trap just doesn't make a lot of sense.

I wonder if Rios has a descendant living in the 25th century...
Mass Effect did it better, and even Stargate sg1 did as well. But original looks not broken up star wars toys right?
Tbf, Captain Seven would also be cool
You guys do some of the best ship break downs for ST. Love some the the ships form Picard even, though I didn't find it to be my favorite series.
Helm is the pilot in control of maneuvering and thruster control. Navigation is the navigator who sets course way points and monitors any on course obstacles such as asteroid fields. So essentially the navigator sets the route and helps the pilot who is in control of when the ship actually moves manually, automatically, and can perform evasive maneuvering.
I'm glad the ship was well received , I still however prefer the ToS series ships, dual instead of quad nacelles

The best part of Picard Season 2, I was sad to not see it more
The Defiant has always been my favorite. Tough enough to take on the Borg and equipped with a cloak. Hell yeah!
Really good ship. I am a fan of this size of vessel, particularly if there are few to no civvies aboard.
I would have partially integrated the 2 underside nacelles, while making the top 2 modular, with the option of installing weapons systems or cargo or quarters as alternative modules.
If you take off the two upper warp nacelles, and replace them with big high powered phasers, you'd have a new version of the USS Reliant.
hence why in STO the Reliant class was named after the Reliant itself.
Its such a great ship and I adore it! That said, hasn't it been implied that we aren't getting the stargazer in season 3? guessing its gonna be something else.

The navigator charts the course, the helmsman steers it. In an oceangoing navy, the helmsman is enlsted, while the navigator is an officer.
This was amazing clarification. Thank you so much for that.

this new stargazer is definitely my favorite trek ship. number 2 being promethius.
I did love the fact that stargazer was his old ship:)
I really like the bridge/meeting room combo and colors. I would just replace the stairs with ramps. Or possibly level everything out. Get into a firefight and start tossing crew around those stairs will kill some one.
Haha I'm not a sovereign! You guys are crazy :D I'm just a loyal battlemage.
It's like this, I am a fan of Star Trek in passing. My general love of Sci-fi mandates that I at least care about Trek. I have watch all content, up to and including the bad "robot" movies. DS9 is my favorite, followed by TNG, then Voyager then the originals. Now movies is mercy. I like them all. Roughly in order of release. 2 as the hest, generations as the worst, and the new ones at the bottom of the list. Anyways, I watch these videos all the time, as the only Trek content I watch on here. The reason is because of you Adam. I watch you, not what you talk about. You could narrate root canals and I'd watch lol
Thanks for another great video/briefing. Well Done! As a suggestion: USS Pegasus . Yes some of the story is probably classified. Could there be any successors? A?, B?, C?, . . . Would we know or would they be classified? or cloaked? or part of Section 31? Perhaps rumors of development/testing/construction at area 51? Please note the coincidence/conspiracy of information that ends with a 1.
Great suggestion! Maybe looking at these more experimental ships of the Federation?
Yeah..."classified" is not really a thing in a fictional world. Just sayin'.
@@crabbyj You might want to check out the episode "Pegasus" in season 7 of STNG
@@robertsparks3685 - I could, but it would still be a fictional universe (though one that brings me much happiness), and "classification" would still make as much sense as battery-flavored lollipops.
That said, writers keeping things under wrap, as not to spoil a pending storyline? That's a type of classification I can understand...outside of my years in the IC.
I forgot, have you done the new U.S.S Archer NCC-627? If not that would be my choice.
We have indeed!
@@xedanis101yeah I just watched it, it was awesome.
I wish I could see a Starship built by the Federation, Klingon's, and Romulan's on one Multi-Crewed ship.
There is a Starfleet/Klingon ship in STO, so maybe sooner than you think....:):):)
@@mack2512 really what is it called
I did like the ship mostly except for the nacelle struts on the top and bottom they could have been integrated into the secondary hull on the ventral side
I’d like to see a star fleet massive ship like this!! That houses like 5-10 of a battle Cruisers the size of the defiant class ship!! That can detach from the main ship and swarm the ship or ships there fighting!!!!
!!!!!!!!!!!!
The small turbo lifts never made any sense to me. I suppose you could use the transporter to get larger objects between floors but that didn't seem common in the older treks.
We need a stargazer series with captain 7 of 9
There are very few ships that can use a 4-cell or look good with a 4-cell warp drive and this ship that you're talking about now looks perfect with all four warp cells. I would like to make a life-sized model of that spaceship.
The galaxy class will always be my favorite! The new stargazer is beautiful though.
I think that’s pretty cool. I like the original one from next generation and the one from the radiant class of Kirks era, looks pretty neat to
I love the Stargazer's look and feel, it looks amazing and I wish I was a lowly janitor on it, because Inwould scrub it's nacelles any day!
The USS ENTERPRISE NCC 1701 and the A, B, C, D and E are the best sttarships!!
You can see the shepherd class influence but can you spot the jem'hadar dreadnought? I was surprised that I could
I really hope SNW shows a Radiant-class ship, its beautiful and would be such a waste as a throw away prop.
Thanks! That would be wonderful if they did.
Why was Chris smoking(??) a cigar... it doesn't seem very Starfleet.
I don't think he ever lit it. He just likes to hold it. Maybe it's like his stress ball.
I love quadruple nacelle ships. Rikers enterprise from the last episode of tng was awesome
Although something I've always wanted to see....the brige be something akin to the defiant. A triple or quadruple seperater. A single ship that is its own mini fleet. A saucer battleship, bridge be a light maneuverable attack cruiser, and the rear section be a fleet supper ship.
The upside down shot of the Sagan glass looks like the little fighter class starship that you get on that classic video game where you're going from left to right and a little bit up a little bit down and shooting all the guys coming from the top of the screen down that video game anyways it looks like that little ship with an explosion coming off of it with the saucer section behind it like that kind of funny
I really like the Stargazer. I just hope it's not relegated to the background in S3.
3:15 I always heard these were part of the impulse engines considering we saw these on the Miranda and Excelsior class ships, on the excelsior they were on the saucer no where near the warp nacelles or even engineering for that mater.
Hitting like simply for the berserk Alpha 5 reference.
I wish they had kept the 'gazer around along with Rios. I would have loved a spin off with Rios, Seven, Rafi and Elnore.
Got to love the way they honour Carl Sagan...
Nice Ship. Why did they have to have Q interfere? I would love to see what it can do.
So…how long until this appears in Star Trek Online?
there is one in the game. It's labeled " heavy cruiser" it's not spectacular or anything... we need a T6 version of it
Another great episode! I love your infusion of humour! I'm laughing my (what's the Klingon word for Butt?) Off! 🤣 I'm absolutely loving the walk through.
It would be so awesome if they’d make a show of it…. I’d love a Star Trek: Stargazer in that era!
Speaking of large screens and lots of lights... I am an air traffic controller. Our radar rooms literally look like the bridge of the Enterprise, until you realize all the panels are the same at every position. You learn by doing.
I would like to see a video on the new reliant class that was based on the Miranda class.

Adam Watson is the absolute coolest trek central member ever
They must be sure that those Borg upgrades securely hold up. Because the bridge is very exposed and has a window-viewscreen together. Older ships had a holographic viewscreen, that wasn't a vindow. They probably were very confident in their shields. Altough Jurati was able to transport right trough them onto the bridge.
What makes you think the windows are any more vulnerable? Also.... didn't the Galaxy class and other ships have a skylight?
@@DrewLSsix I automatically thought a window is thinner than a wall, hence less secure. . I watched some UA-cam videos where plans for these ships were shown. But you are right, the skylights make it very exposed. I guess they (TV-show artistic team) was going to what looks good in TV. I wish they had thought about it more thougrally.
I love the ship.
I love the video. I love the channel.
But what I love most is the fact that these artists and designers and producers aren't just building a fancy set.
Science fiction, throughout it's history, has presaged nearly every development and achievement of mankind. Sometimes by hundred of years. Internationally and unintentionally. And now, the 'second generation ' of designers are coming to fore, bringing the latest developments in the fleet. These folks are not just building a TV show, they are creating the real and actual future. The cell phone was inspired by the communicator of TOS. A space shuttle was named the ENTERPRISE ! This is a moment of fiction creating reality. Of synchronicity unparalleled. And thank God a wonderful genius created the original. We could have had a galaxy full of haters and bigots. But Roddenberry made one of inclusion, equality and inquiry. Thank you. Thank him.
Make it so....
On side could be dedicated to ships shields and weapons, while the other could be dedicated to power and engines.
Or
By the design you would think that the would be able to separate it into 2 ships? So in an attack they could double the defense.
More Stargazer. A spinoff with Rios in the interim period before Pecard season 2. Or, bring him back from the past with his sweetie and her kid. Episodic like Strange New Worlds. The whole crew is too good to let go.
Is it just me, or do the corridors of the new Stargazer look a lot like the corridors of the Enterprise-E?
i want to see the isolinear tide pod challenge chow down on some isolinear chips sounds like fun to me.
They're reusing this set for PIC S3's ship(which won't be the Stargazer) so we'll probably see the ready room in that
If the ship is shook, Captain and anyone else in those centre seats is going down those steps, ouch!. However, I hope 7 is able to retain her field commission and it's made permanent.
5:38 wow! there is two bigger rooms(separated by literally 'open space') with ample windows, the front ( observation lounge or conference lounge) is for the captain's staff meetings and ..... 'social functions', and the other is what I could guess is where the lower ranking ship's staff go to have there parties in the back, ...... so we gotta 'mullet' (business in the front and party in the back) situation or like a social dichotomy goin on behind the bridge.
I'm glad there's so many shows but I want more trek video games. Sto is all well and good if you have internet and don't mind starship gacha but give me armada 4 or command 4
Nice X-Wing
A thing of beauty.. inside and out..Nice
Really interesting bridge design. However, regarding where the helmsman and navigator sitting so far forward of the command crew, it seems like the Captain would need to shout his orders to them. I seriously doubt the bridge would be so quiet that they could hear the captain in his/her normal voice volume.
I would have thought that the Prometheus Class would have taken precedence over a Constellation class refit. The Constellation is larger though. I don't have HBO max so I can't keep track of all these offshoots until bootleg videos come out 🤣
At least they don't have lens flare generators 😆
And I am old enough to have watched reruns of TOS...and that one where Daystrom's computer went crazy was one of my favorites. Even Daystrom himself went nuts in that episode and had to be sedated.
Love this ship qn I love its bridge , nice one
