I served in the USN in the 80s. Star fleet is loosely based on the USN so these are my observations. In the USN the Captain or CO of a ship is treated like a god. Captain walks into a space, the first one to notice shouts, "Captain on deck!" and every swinging dick in that space pops to attention IMMEDIATELY. The Captain usually quickly says, "as you were." But I remember one time the Capt showed up in my berthing space and no one noticed or made a fuss. In a loud voice the Capt said, "let's try that again." He excited the room and re entered, to a very loud, "ATTENTION ON DECK!" "As you were." I was called to the Captain's quarters once. I was amazed at the size. My CGN was not a large ship but the Captain's quarters were huge. It was like a suite. He has a large office area with a big desk and seating around the room and his bed was at least queen sized.

how in the world did you make a video like that? What did you use?

Liar. This is a simulation, NOT "The Original 1960s Enterprise Set".

Is it possible this was a VFX compositing error in the original show that was fixed later?

And the central angle of a decagon is, indeed, 36 degrees.

I'm very impressed with the animations, but when you use the word 'Set', the video loses its magic and it becomes a set production, instead of a Sci fi fantasy, which most of us see as escapism.

Junior officers & crewman had to share quarters and they were smaller than Kirk's. As you mention Kirk has an office/living space as did other senior officers, Spock, Scotty, Mc'Coy

Congratulations I did not hate the video

Lovely work, mate! Thank you :)

64 Jahre danach und sie fliegt immer noch ......

They should have kept this entire set as a museum. Of course they had not idea what it would become. People would pay $500 to go on a tour of this set today if it existed. Back then, it was just a tv show. I read the book "The making of star trek" from the 70's. It's a very long detailed book and a must read.

Very nice work indeed.

I quite enjoyed this video. I also enjoyed your digital models. I left your video a Like and this comment to help you with the TH-cam algorithm. Have a pleasant day.

You must remember the Federation are the vegetarian space socialists who are always right, so the Captain gets mediocre quarters no different to the rest of the crew.

Star Trek: The Next Generation had a four-segmented quarters set that could be subdivided to communicate the importance of the character. Picard and Riker got the full four segments, with Picard additionally getting the Ready Room. Crusher got four but shared it with Wesley, so it seemed smaller because it was shared between an officer and her son. Data got three, as did visiting guests like Scotty. Troi, Worf, and Geordi got two. Other characters (recurring characters and bit parts) got a single segment.

Very nice digital recreation of the set. Now I can see and imagine what the studio was like. Thank you for this video!

Disee-A-loo

The Enterprise-D was so big because they wanted to have "families" on board to make it a "ship of peace." Which was a stupid, stupid, STUPID idea that smacks of Child Abuse and Felony Endangerment, in addition to it being a total waste of space and limited resources to support hundreds of nonessential personnel.

Whenever someone makes a model of the set, I always look for LN's bicycle hanging from the rigging.

For Steam VR users there is a virtual model of the set. I believe it is one of the environments you can choose instead of the steam VR house. I don't think it's as detailed as your blender model, though.

When it came to position of the centrifuge, the books seemed to indicate that it was located horizontally, between the pod-bay and the flight-deck, as touched uponat 7:55 minutes in on the time tracker. See excerpt: "The equatorial region of the pressure sphere - the slice, as it were, from Capricorn to Cancer - enclosed a slowly rotating drum, thirty-five feet in diameter. As it made one revolution every ten seconds, this carrousel or centrifuge produced an artificial gravity equal to that of the Moon. This was enough to prevent the physical atrophy which would resuit from the complete absence of weight, and it also allowed the routine functions of living to be carried out under normal - or nearly normal - conditions. "

I used to think the D was a massive ship until the Romulan Warbird changed my mind.😅

Very good video.

I can't see the Enterprise being 40 years old at the time of Kirk's command. _The Menagerie, Part 1_ and/or _The Menagerie, Part 2_ suggested one of Captain Pike's missions was about 20 years earlier. I suspect it would have been new or fairly new at that time. We saw several "sister ships" get destroyed or rendered crewless during the series. I imagine that it was policy to have a dozen top-tier starships ("Federation Battle Cruiser" as the Klingon said), so they would replace those worn out or destroyed. It was only at the time of _The Wrath of Khan_ that they tried a different "class" design probably for routine missions or patrols in Federation space (as well as to have a distinctive look in the movie). I can't see the Reliant being a 5-year mission exploratory vehicle. One starship not mentioned was that the Enterprise was set to rendezvous with the Discovery in "The Squire of Gothos," the Trelane episode. This was long before the Discovery series, and there's no indication it wasn't a Constitution Class starship in the episode. The Excelsior seems to be the upgraded top-tier class of starship to replace the "Constitution Class."

Please do one on the Jupiter 2 set from The 1960s Lost In Space.

where was the extra pylon support .. geeeeeeeeeeeeeeesh any self respecting trekie knows ... without a shadow of a doubt , the extra supports were constructed with ... a mixture of spider silk , carbon fiber ,, wringleys spiriment gum bail wire and DUCT TAPE !!!! come on everyone knows that .. in the newer refit they used unicorn farts ... lmao

I’ve been to the set for Star Trek Continues in Kingsland, GA and it’s amazing! Good job on your model!

You've clearly worked hard, and to great effect, but I wish you'd linger longer on each space, rather than waste time constantly melting back into a black screen.

Star Trek Enterprise answers this problem and you overlooked it. They opened the hatch to that ship that was bigger on the inside, right? Well starfleet kept that ship. Did they do NOTHING with it? Did they not research it? My good sir's and madam's, I give to you the TARDIS effect. All problems solved.

To be sincere my question was another: Why Picard and other officers had so big quarters? Had ensigns similar quarters? Have you ever saw a submarine commander quarters? Another question: why we never saw a single bathroom in all Star Trek franchise (maybe with Enterprise exception but only about showers and funny references in Deep Space 9 about engineers being transferred to waste disposal) do people 400 years from now evolved beyond the need to defecate and urinate and even throwing up (there was a deleted scene in Enterprise about Trip vomiting). In fact it seems Picard spend more time in the ready room than in his quarters. Yes it is a Galaxy class ship, it is bigger than a Constitution class, yet in Lower Decks we see that not all crew has this amenities, ensigns share quarters, why not share it in a more equitable way? O'Brien is not an officer but he still has big quarters because of his family. What is the rule? The re are two things that bother me in ST universe: 1. all planets have an uniform culture (what a way to celebrate diversity) and one government: all Vulcans are logic and those who aren't are expelled, all Klingons are warriors and eat meat no agriculture: how Chronos can work around thermodynamics and feed billions with this inefficient way (the mor you get up in food chain the more inefficient it gets), all Ferengi are business men, aren't scientists (one appears once). 2. it all clean no person pees, poops or throws up. There are no conflict (except rarely in ST NG and DS9) it looks like a 50s sitcom like Father Knows Best and Leave it to Beaver.

I really love this video.

Like most adults, he is not hanging out in his bedroom.

Aes-Tetic?? Aesthetic surely.

...We Travel By Night- you're a *SKILLED* *ANIMATOR*- any chance of seeing a *deck view* of this proposed Great Cabin...? ...I'd *LOVE* to see it in blueprint form...! 😃😃😃😃

VERY NICE JOB!!! I just stumbled across your website and I very much look forward to looking at your other Star Trekrenditions. P. S. I got a kick out of the Easter egg door signs!

I always assumed that that just was just not the turbo lift shaft

I really enjoyed that, I never realised the set was so huge. Thank you.

I actually thing Kirk had two cabins on board. Many large naval vessels the Captain has a smaller cabin close to the bridge and then a larger main cabin elsewhere.

crew quarters looks like a fancy hotel

Ticonderoga NY. Original Star Trek Set Tour. Built from the original set blueprints and a bucket list destination for a TOS fan. BTW they are building a Enterprise D bridge now
