- One of the hallmarks of Star Trek's visual aesthetic is the classic jump to warp speed. Audiences were treated to the first version of the warp jump in 1979 with the release of Star Trek: The Motion Picture. In this video, we will be doing a survey of how the warp jump effect changed over the years. Note: The Kelvin timeline and other alternate continuities are not included in this overview.

There have been a lot of questions about why specific shows or movies aren't included in the video, so I wanted to clarify a few things. The Original Series, The Animated Series, Star Trek 6, and Insurrection are absent because they don't have any jumps to warp. The JJ films aren't included because they are from a completely different timeline, and there is nothing from Discovery because, in my personal opinion, it does not fit with the rest of Star Trek. Thank you for watching.
love that those were perfectly legitimate reasons up until discovery which was just "i don't like it, therefore it's not a part of star trek"
@@GoldenSkies061 While it is my opinion, it's more than simply "I don't like it." I'm not a big fan of Picard either, for example. However, it is my view that Discovery as a show is antithetical to the nature of Star Trek. Nevertheless, I understand if others disagree with that position.
@@JohnDiMarco I thought that was really good. There is a episode of TNG were it shows the enterprise slowing down out of warp ( I can't remember which one) that looks really good and something we hadn't seen before. I wonder if you know what episode that is from?
ALL perfectly reasonable. I mean ... I haven't watched Lower Decks because I don't like the concept of the show but that warp effect with the lightning bolt between the nacelles for me hammered the last nail in the show's coffin. Personal opinion. There are plenty that like the show, apparently.
The choice not to include STD was pretty on point. When you do actually see warp effects in STD it's more like Battlestar's FTL than any warp effect that has ever been seen in Trek before. That and there's also a pretty good fan theory out there backed by unofficial interpretations of CBS decisions that STD is based in its own timeline as well, so the rationale could be reused.
@@mrmeerkat1096 Thanks for watching. I'm not sure if this is the episode you're thinking of, but in Q Who, we see the Enterprise decelerate out of warp after Q flings the ship into the path of the Borg.
There’s a really cool scene in TNG season 2, “The Child,” I think, where Wesley and Guinan are standing by the Ten Forward windows as the Enterprise breaks orbit and goes to warp; it’s one of the few shots we get from the inside of a ship as it departs.
Season 3's The Vengeance Factor also shows this in the Sovereign's quarters.
@@Duricas yeap
Yes I really like that scene.

You’re welcome.

I love Voyager's the most. The sound of the nacelles moving and then the powerful blast and sound. 👏👏
I do have a soft spot for that one since that was my first Trek series. Plus that opening. It's so wonderful.
Fav Trek, loved the concept, could have been deeper, but the crew, and the Doctor...
There is an episode ending, which shows the Voyager in full glory before she jumps to warp. They made to hear the mechanic sound of the nacelle hinges switching for warp mode. She IS the most beautifull ship in ST history and no one can change my mind.
@@talos86 Agreed.
@@mr.radovic702 doesn’t the doctor count as part of the crew?
Your choices from Voyager are the best warp jumps in the franchise. The one when they jump mid-roll after being shot by Species 8472, and the one where they blow up Icheb's shuttle as it enters the Sphere and warp out of the shockwave. Breathtaking scenes. Love the one from First Contact as well.
I agree, Voyager and Sovereign class warp jumps have always been my favorite. I love the Voyager effect because the ship appears to stretch out, which is what something would look like if it suddenly started moving fast than light.
I absolutely love the look of the Enterprise D from Generations but the warp effect wasn’t super smooth by that point.
It's been awhile since I saw it and I thought it looked cool but for some reason I thought of it earlier today and it took me awhile to figure out the episode it was from. I knew it was "Voyager" and I knew that it was a "rolling" jump after getting fired at and hit. I also remembered it was kind of a "rolling" jump and that the weapon used to hit it and start Voyager to go out of control in the first place was this coordinated weapons-fire between more than one ship that looked like a lightning bolt. Even when you remember that much about it though it's hard to find it. It was from "Scorpion Pt 2". Someone else thought the same thing because I found it here on YT in a stand-alone video "Star Trek - The coolest jump to warp" and I see now that it is one of the jumps included in this video too so I'm not the only one that thought it looked cool. It's the one in this video at 4:39 and there is one right after it that is one of the better ones too. Strange that 2 of the better ones (IMO) are about 25-years old now and from the same show. Thumbs up to the effects crew and to Tom Paris I guess! Honestly....I didn't like how they handled the warp takeoffs and stops in "Star Trek: Picard". I know that it is the newest effect they've come up with but I immediately thought "Hey....I don't like the sound and I don't like how they think like 40 ships can all go to warp or drop out of warp & they are only about 25 feet from each other without hitting each other!" It just looks cheesy. That's my opinion on that anyway. I'm not sure if others agree.
Another thing about "Voyager". The show and the ship. My favorite show/captain will always be Captain Picard and "The Next Generation" but I think "voyager" is my 2nd favorite. Neelix got on my nerves sometimes & did anyone buy the Kes/Neelix romance? Not me. Jameway's voice also kinda had a fingernails-on-blackboard sound to it too sometimes but when she got assertive her voice really fit well with those situations. You could tell she was pissed and meant business. As far as the warp jumps.....you can tell that "Voyager" the ship is smaller because the response time/agility was always better and it was more nimble & its agility was more impressive too. All of those features came in handy quite a few times during the show.
@@edeclark the roll jump is actually from Scorpion, Part 1. They had just discovered an armada of 15 Borg cubes destroyed and went to investigate, when the destroyer, Species 8472, decided to attack them as well.
@@Meoknet Yep. You were right. I was close at least in thinking it was part 2. That effect would've never worked with the Enterprise-D or -E. They're way too big.
The Motion Picture isn't my favorite warp, by any means, but with the idea of how warp's supposed to work, to me, it has always made the most sense for what warp would look like.
I think ‘Into Darkness’ is my favourite. The shots of the Enterprise at warp with the wake refracting the stars in the background emulating gravitational lenses.
My absolute favorite has always been the first one shown from Wrath of Khan, which is in fact a recolor of the first one from The Motion Picture, without the rainbow tunnel effect. I've always wished they'd go back to that effect with the long light trails streaking behind.
As much as I love Voyager's coolest jump to warp, nothing beats the D as she slows to impulse from warp. Such grace. Such elegance. Such dignity.
As McCoy said, treat her like a lady...
Amen to that!!
And she’ll get you home.
The one at 5:01 is by far my favourite... It feels like the enterprise know exactly what to do... As Picard says "engage", the ship goes smothly into a charge of power, and a really precise movement before the actual engaging...
The nemesis warp is my favorite as well because it is graceful and smooth whilst also giving off a sense of mastery in the essence that they know what they are all doing whether that be the crew or the people who built the warp core
@@Dr_Mafia ITA! The visual/audio effects in and during warp speed for this film, as well as ST:Enterprise, was simply, "A Work Of Art."
Agreed! In my opinion, it looked and sounded "absolutely perfect."😎👍
I like how with Enterprise, a prequel series to the TOS films, you notice the slight ghost trails on the ship, like is advancing, and eventually would be like those. Is little touches like that when I watch Enterprise that give me great appreciation for how they tried to make it feel modern, but also like is not quite as advanced. I don't think the show gets enough credit for that.
0:39 is my favorite. Feels very “weighty” and real, it’s hard to describe... I like how it kinda eases into the warp effect for a second before zooming off, making it feel like the enterprise is actually bending space time and accelerating into its speed.
I’d love to see a modern take on this effect maybe with the rainbow streaks like later Star Trek and a very subtle warping bubble around the ship similar to ST Beyond.
I agree! TWOK had the best warp effects. The TNG ship "stretching" was clearly inspired by the "easing" you describe - although it seemed really cheesy to me. They did improve on that visual effect by the time the TNG movies came out, though...
It’s easily the best one, your right about it having a weighty feel.
Agreed
After all these years, the Constitution Class Refit is still the most beautiful ship I've ever seen. The Voyage Home warp jump is still my favorite.
5:16 Best beauty shot. EVAR. I can imagine the crew feeling a little seasick (spacesick?) with that big, majestic, sweeping turn!
This was fun. I think my favorite is the one from Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
Thanks! I do enjoy the effect from The Motion Picture.
My favourites were "TOS",1,2,3,4,6,7, "Enterprise",8,9,"TNG", and "Voyager".
TMP kinda has the best effects of all of the incarnations. I mean, the photon torpedos were done by spinning a crystal on a string and shining a laser through it! So rad. Douglas Trumbull is the GOAT.
Totally agree! TMP is best!
For me it was TNG....since it's the First Star Trek I was introduced to
1:30 is definitely a favorite of mine. The Bounty is extremely underrated in my opinion.
The shot of the Enterprise emerging from warp at 0:15 is the most spectacular of all, imo -- TMP's warp effects were so much better than the following movies.
Exactly :)
They certainly had the most effort put into them versus the later movies and TV shows for sure. The VFX for warp just got cheaper and lamer as time went on IMO.
In fact, the Enterprise isn't emerging from warp; the ship just reached the cruise speed at warp 7... the colorful streaks are supposed to represent only the acceleration phase from warp 1 to 7.
I like how the guy who invented warp was shocked and reacting to wapr while la forge and riker were like "normal day in the office"
To me, Star Trek TNG will always have the most iconic warp effect. Maybe not the "best," but the one that seems to set the standard for all others that follow. It isn't just the visuals either. The sound of the charging engine followed by the "BANG" as the Enterprise-D breaks the Warp Speed barrier is the stuff sci-fi nerd dreams are made of.
Yes, this was the case for me at age 8 to 12 or whenever I transitioned from TNG to Voyager.
I love the TMP rainbow effect, but Voyager's movable nacelles are kinda cool too!
I saw ST:TMP at the theater in it's original run in 1979, and I thought the warp jump was near the damned coolest thing I'd seen. In the subsequent movies the effect just seemed cheesey. As a side note, the transporter malfunction scene messed me up for a while, though. The description of it in the novel is even more disturbing.
Agreed, TMP did it best. Same for the photon torpedoes, IMO. Those super long tendrils of light made them so unique.
@@MightyGalvatron Quantum torpedoes in that movies! Just kidding... the blue/white torpedoes were way cooler than the subsequent orange ones.
" the transporter malfunction scene messed me up for a while, though"
I saw that as a kid, probably 7 or 8 years old in '87. Even now, at 42, I still fast forward that transporter scene.
Funny thing, people whine about TMP all the time as a SLOW movie. It was, and it is. But, doesn't that make you feel like you are REALLY THERE more?? Stuff doesn't happen in real life instantly. So, when you see such long and drawn out scenes, to me it makes me feel like it's more of a real life scenario than a movie. The entire V'ger cloud from the Enterprise entering it, until they encounter the final "orifice" could have been a 2-3 minute scene. Instead it was about 20 minutes (including the Ilea getting killed scene). BUT, I've always had the feeling of being totally out of control, and just being "along for a long ride" with that scene. I think it makes it better!
The one thing I learned from this is that the Engage button is much bigger on the helm of the Enterprise D than it is on the E.
Star Trek The Motion Picture still has the best warp jumps of the lot.
Facts!!!!
No. They look like a 4 year old mentally handicapped child made it on a KidiBuzz 3!
The Motion Picture had fantastic visuals and it really takes the cake. Especially with the new 4K restoration.
I dislike how they added "thrusters" to the end of the nacelles in the new Star Trek shows like Picard and Lower Decks. Gene Roddenberry said he never wanted the nacelles to look like jet engines. He said that was too modern looking, and not futuristic enough. And I agree.
Thats not trek, I dont recognise it.
@@paradisebreeze1705 Agreed. Lower Decks is cringe. So is the rest of Nu Trek
@@SonofTiamat Cry about it. Trek is awesome whether you like it or not.
@@darthvader9969 It's Star Wars pretending to be Star Trek
@@SonofTiamat no it’s not
*You saved the very very best "Warp Drive Sequence" for last. "Thank you!"* 👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽👍🏽
7:48 the only warp that’s ever given me goosebumps!
1:06 is by far my favorite. It just feels like the Enterprise is being carried off by a wave of energy.
WOW! Great job compiling these. I'd believe my favorites in order are STII TWOK (not just the visual but the sound effect as well!), DS9 Defiant, STTNG Nemesis (the smoke left behind is coolness), Enterprise, Lower Decks (pretty cool stuff there) and that shot of Voyager when it goes warp toward the screen and stretches out is unbelievably amazing. I've never really liked TNG tv series going to warp. That explosion of light just seemed cheesy.
Thanks!
@@JohnDiMarco ua-cam.com/video/ruPVTPCavdM/v-deo.html
The Starbow effect from STTMP should be used in every warp sequence.
To make everything look like an 80s computer game with low resolution 16 color flicker effects?
Hey thanks for this. It really puts into perspective how fast voyager is. Almost zero hesitation between engaging the warp drive and going to warp.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@JohnDiMarco its pretty informative, so yeah I really did. Thank you again.
@@JohnDiMarco do you like "trekculture?" Its a worthy channel and you should apply to be a writer or editor.
I've heard of that channel. Thanks for the suggestion.
@@boss-anova ?
the TNG/DS9/VOY era "white slashy" is now probably the classic. growing up I was always most fond of the TMP one with its fireworks and "pow" in the end (reminiscent of a sonic boom maybe?).
Best warp effect is still the Star Trek TOS films with the rainbow effect trailing behind it.
6:12 I guess no one involved in the production realized that this music was the *Enterprise* theme, not just a theme to use when Picard is around.
Nu trek is trash, they don't even know anything about Star Trek.
Is that its official name of the theme from somewhere?
@@joeconcepts5552 Composed by Jerry Goldsmith for the first and fifth films' main theme, it was featured in the track "The Enterprise" from The Motion Picture. It was then adapted for use as main theme of TNG, and used only when the Enterprise was on screen. Goldsmith then used it to signify the Enterprise in First Contact through Nemesis. It was never used without the Enterprise until this (inappropriate) moment in STP.
Honestly at this point, that theme IS the Star Trek theme to me. Goldsmith music evolved beyond when the Enterprise is on screen. It’s so good, it should just be the normal Star Trek theme. That’s why I was okay with it when it played during the Titan’s rescue of the Cerritos during Lower Decks S1 finale.
I love Riker's ship has huge back-lit registry letters in red. Imagine if that were real, how many people you'd have to convince to make them that big and basically as bright as the warp drive.
Why did I just watch this to completion? Erm, I mean, great video. I love the warps.
Excellent video! The stylized movie banner titles at the bottom are gorgeous. Thank you! 😊👍
I appreciate it!
@@JohnDiMarco ua-cam.com/video/eXotTJcCp_0/v-deo.html
I was disappointed that you didn't include the section when the Enterprise D goes to warp *while* at warp because that's honestly one of my favourite effects -- but then you put it at the end like a little encore. Nicely done :)
That scene, with the Farragut flying up from Veridian III always makes me feel 10 again, it was awe-inspiring then and it still is. Generations never got enough love, probably because it was the death of the Enterprise-D. I always thought if they had changed the Duras Sister's ship to a Vor'cha, nobody would have had a problem with it.
TMP and Wrath of Khan are the best for me. When i first saw TMP warp in the theater, the entire crowd yelled out "Yeah!"
I love all the Star Trek Warp Jumps (1979-2021)
The Enterprise E leaving Romulus is the best, Elvis has left the building😜
For me it's the effect @:37 that sound build up was powerful!! I wish it was added again for when Spock restored warp power @:46
I love how Captain Styles of the Excelsior warns Admiral Kirk about stealing the Enterprise where he says “Kirk, you do this you’ll never sit in the captain’s chair again”. And yet Kirk still got a new ship of his own after just being demoted for disobeying orders from Starfleet Command.
Ironic how the most dynamic and visually stunning warp jump is from the first 70s movie!
Thank you for sharing.
"Heading sir?" " out there....THATAWAY!" FOLLOWED by the best warp ever.........along with a brilliant jerry goldsmith score
The best warp effect in my opinion is from The Motion Picture, even to this day it is still the coolest one
I'm disappointed. The warp effect from Star Trek Beyond was likely the most realistic since it actually shows space being warped around the Enterprise. It's the best warp effect in my opinion. You didn't include it. You didn't include anything from the Kelvin timeline.
I know. Sad, but sounds like he's biased against the Kelvin Timeline. I love a lot about it, the warp effects being one of the highlights
The best ones were in 1979's Star Trek: The Motion Picture!
The last one of IV is the best in my opinion, a real feeling of speed.
Interesting to see how they change, thanks, the early ones look kinda Xanadu but interestingly after a middle period of relative realism we get back to a very similar effect towards the end.
Great compilation video John.
Thank you!
@@JohnDiMarco ua-cam.com/video/DdmU2IprGVg/v-deo.html
You missed one in TNG. I can not remember the Episode, but it was:
* Ten Foward
* Guinan and Wesley having a talk
* we see a rare warp jump from inside the ship
I believe that was from the episode "The Child." I was primarily focusing on exterior shots, but that was an interesting effect.
@@JohnDiMarco ua-cam.com/video/qgKjk5z1tBs/v-deo.html
The TNG mix needed that moment from "Phantasms" where the Enterprise starts the usual warmup to warp, flashes at the nacelles... and then just sits there. "...Mister LaForge? WHY ISN'T MY SHIP MOVING?"
The motion picture has my favorite warp effect, also my favorite Star Trek film
I still like the rainbow(ish) effect of TMP the best. It has the most attractive balance of colors and the long red strands are evocative of the red shift as the Enterprise speeds away from us.
6:35 LOVED Riker in Lower Decks
GIMME WARP! In the factor of 5-6-7-8!
Oh, the jazz...
My personal favourites actually come from season 1 of Discovery. The first is when Burnham takes over the I.S.S. Shenzhou and we see the Discovery and Shenzhou side-by-side before she goes to warp, the second is when Discovery blows up the I.S.S. Charon and warps away to escape the blast wave.
My dad (he always liked star trek) and I saw the TMP in the theater. I loved how it the TV show translated into a motion picture with the really cool effects and score.
It's sad to see warp without warping. It's in the freaking name!
I'm a Japanes ordinary Star Trek lover who isn't a Trekkie.
Aside from that, I was surprised to see this video. There were many CG animation series that I had never seen.
So I to explore strange new worlds, to seek out new stories and new characters, to boldly go where no me has gone before...
No Kelvin Timeline warping? Smh. The Vengeance walking down the Enterprise and knocking it out of warp was crazy
The Deep Space Nine footage begins at 3:27, not ten seconds later as the description proposes.
Thanks for catching that. It should be fixed now.
@@JohnDiMarco ua-cam.com/video/GJjGkd7LpjY/v-deo.html
The effects reduce over time
from TMP's exciting ship zooming away with the circle of rainbows and the blue trail left over by the ship and all the sound effects
to just the ship trail, in various colors and sounds, sometimes even silent
to just the ship stretching
to just it speeding away.
In the later series they made it snappier but its still not very substantial. At least LD has the ship trail.
Great video John
Thank you!
@@JohnDiMarco ua-cam.com/video/EqMfKiDIkYQ/v-deo.html
So glad you put in the TNG scene of going to Betazed at warp 9. The very first warp jump was a must in First Contact.
The best warp is from Star Trek II The Wrath of Khan when they outrun the Genesis device detonation. The music, the graphics, bar none!
Legend says that, like the Heisenberg Principle, an observer sees a different kind of Warp speed effect in every Star Trek film and episode.
i think a mix between the stretching of ships like in ds9 and voyager plus the rainbow/light distortion from the motion picture, with that wonderful explosive sound would be my favourite
Missing the JJPrize, the "thump" effect in the 2009 movie is my favoured so far.
The early renditions from the first movie are the best
I think the 1979 ones are the best. More going on, feels a lot more powerful.
Thank you!
Fun fact, the Enterprise seen at 00:46 and 1:10 is from an AMT/ERTL model kit. ILM needed a smaller scale model for warp shots, so they bought and used the model kit rather than building one from scratch. This kit was used extensively throughout Star Trek 2, 3, and 6.
*eyebrow raise* Fascinating.
@@JohnDiMarco ua-cam.com/video/Syt0llURkdo/v-deo.html
I would say an honorable mention would be the fake warp core breach from Star Trek: Enterprise (Shockwave Pt) when trying to escape the Suliban. Personally, that’s one of my favorite warp moments.
For TNG, if you pay attention, you'll realize they only had three jumps to warp. The slit-scan effect took so much time and money to make, they could only afford to make them at the start of Season 1, and they used just reused them for the whole series. Basically, the intro shot where the ship passes below the camera and then jumps to warp; the one where the ship passes close left to right, then jumps; and the one where the camera is low to the right, and the ship turns and jumps. It wasn't until Generations that they could add more shots.
I know how unpopular Star Trek Nemesis is, but I love that warp jump!
I much prefer Voyager. From TNG until Voyager you could actually see space distorting, and they perfected it in Voyager, but then Nemesis came along, and now it just moves fast.
I really like the subtle, but good looking, warps in Nemesis. Just that little bit of smoke. Less is more.
何十年も人類が夢見る高速移動がドラマや映画、アニメでこれだけ描かれていると本当に実現できる気がしますね。
Interesting how The Search For Spock head Scotty in the navigation position of the bridge, the only other time I was aware of that was in the epilogue of the Second pilot Where No Man Has Gone Before.
Love that you added context.
Thanks!
@@JohnDiMarco ua-cam.com/video/Rtq9s5azuBU/v-deo.html
To me I like the warps that have a blur to them, it's like the sonic boom. With a sonic boom, the air is compressing around the plane to the point where sound barrier is over come. It should be the same when warp speed is surpasses the light speed equivalent up to that point they should be in a doppler effect of moving near the speed of light causing a time space dilation effect.
Awesome.
The warp drive effects from the motion picture are the best.
I enjoyed this almost as much the voyager photon torpedo compilation.
Thanks! I love that video.
@@JohnDiMarco ua-cam.com/video/a5vPLnqbQi0/v-deo.html
I cant help noticing the timespan being 42 years
The motion picture effect is my favourite. And the sound effects are awesome . It reminds me of an experience I once had in Amsterdam 🙂
Star Trek: The Motion Picture - The Best One -
Of course this is just my opinion, but it seems like the special effects for this warp effect in the first two movies were the best, and it went straight downhill from there. Really odd since special effects in movies just in general have gotten better over the years.
Funny how we can't possibly navigate to any star based on sight because if we had warp speed, none of the destinations would be where we saw they were.
Always thought the physical warping of the ship from the observer's perspective in the TNG era was a cool way to portray the time dilation aspects of quantum physics, and why Nemesis always looked off to me.
I didn't know what bugged me about the Nemesis warp till now. Thank you.
Great video. My favorite is the NCC-1701E (first contact). Probably because I grew up on TNG.
TNG the best of the 2 Star Trek series ever made. A pity Roddenberry didn't live longer to create more Star Trek after TNG.
I like the sound at 5:38 of the warp engines of the enterprise nx-01, they only used it a few times but i like it even more than the one thst they ended up using. I dont know why, i just like it, sounds like cool futuristic tech
Thanks be to God for another God-fearing trekkie which is so rare especially nowadays.
6:25 Even though they are parodying Star Trek Into Darkness with that effect, Captain Carol Freeman (Dawn Lewis) makes it awesome with "Warp me!" Love it! Great include!
I remember reading decades ago that the warp effect finally seen in TNG is what they were shooting for all along in the movies but just couldn't figure out how to do it. Apparently its an in-camera effect.
Now ST:SNW since it is actually Star Trek again.
You should do one on transporter effects since the TOS era up until Discovery
That's a good idea. Thanks.
@@JohnDiMarco You're welcome. My favorite beaming effect is also the TOS films. But seeing them all compared would be cool. I love that warp speed video you made.
TMP makes warp sound like a sonic boom in space. Tearing subspace apart, as you break the warp barrier.
I like how he just not mentioned DISCO
I really the dislike the way they do it in some of new trek. Where the ship just sits there and you hear engine revving sounds but there is no movement, then suddenly they vanish.....when they appear at their destination they just appear and suddenly deadstop. The momentum before and after warp is part of what made it look so cool. Like in nemesis when they rescue picard and the enterprise does that roll into warp, that the greatest thing ever.
Favorite one has to be the movie ones. Especially TMP and the ones with Ent-E.
Geez, my fave is the first one... Star Trek The Motion Picture.
