- I was looking over the original Matt Jefferies Phase II Enterprise designs and decided to make this video. (Yes, the Bussard Collectors were Blue), I added a few details of my own, because it’s me. I hope you like it!
Loved it! Best Phase II Enterprise I've ever seen! The "aztec-ing", detailing of the deflector, and the swirling-energy effects in the Bussard collectors really MADE this render!
@spaceace1006Ooff, I loved that detail!
Amazing work!
Superb!
Seeing "Big E" leave Spacedock never grows old.
Agreed!
I love the combination of original and refit characteristics on the Phase II Enterprise.
I’ve always felt that the Phase II refit is the bridge between the TOS and TMP constitution class. It’s a shame that it never had an official onscreen appearance.
Such a shame this version never saw the light of day, because it is truly beautiful.
That look on Kirk's face when Scotty swings around to the front of the Enterprise and the music crecendo.. wow
I think why this scene was of such utmost importance in both this and the motion picture was that it put clearly in focus the immense size of the constitution class star ship! It is beyond beautiful! And this had never been done in the TV series!
Way better than the JJPrise or Discoprise! Great Job Robzilla!
Only fans know how to make real Star Trek these days
You got THAT right!
Yup. And, it's the best we're gonna get.
Word.
Because the fans know how to keep the political correctness out.

Well how come you don't know "row, row, row your boat"?
I like it; the lighting effects on the Bussard collectors are really pretty. Well done.
She looks beautiful.
Well done, well done indeed.
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
Vida longa e próspera para todos nós 🖖🖖🖖
Much better, in my opinion, than the refit we saw in STTMP - which was really more of a complete rebuild, and hence probably not practical in the world of Trek. It wasn't just that the interior spaces were so different, the very dimensions of the basic ship changed. This was much better - new nacelles, weapons ports in the dorsal, shuttle attach points, etc.
Very nice! I prefer to think that a few Connies were incrementally refitted to these specs in the late 2260s to make way for the finalized TMP Refit for the Enterprise. USS Merrimac (NCC-1715) for example :)
I agree with you. I think the Phase II design makes for a logical intermediate step between TOS and TMP. I’m not sure of what the canonically correct time frame between TOS and TMP is, but it would make sense that Starfleet would have given the Enterprise a minor refit at the end of her historic 5 years under Kirk to prepare her for another mission of similar duration. They would have done the same after Pike’s run which explains the difference between the pilot versions and the series version. Perhaps the Phase II version is the version Decker commanded for some time before the ship was completely revamped into the version in TMP. I think the TMP version is so drastically different that it can only be explained as the next refit after the Phase II refit.
@@BarryWKay Very nice theory. According to Memory Alpha TMP takes place in 2273 roughly 2.5 years after the 5 year mission ended. Since the Refit began 1.5 years before the film it's likely that Decker got 6 months with the Enterprise before it began it's extensive Refit. The Phase II Refit would last a few weeks (Far less given that only a few modules are replaced).
Now there is a channel I haven't seen anything out of for a while . Good to see you are still around .
Much as I TOTALLY ❤️❤️😍❤️❤️ These many video's on the construction, or refitting of the original Enterprise and NCC 1701-A, I would also love to see a start to finish construction of what has to be one of Starfleet's largest construction projects, that being good old Starbase 001 herself; her space docking bay so large as to be able to dock tens of starships with consummate ease. Keep up the great work there. 🤩👍👍
Better than anything Kurtzman's Trek , will ever do !!!!
Certainly Enterprise wasn't the first Connie to be refitted. The ships M-5 heavily damaged (TOS: The Ultimate Computer) would have needed extensive repair, and if the USS Exeter (TOS: Omega Glory) could be decontaminated she would probably have been refit as well. I could see these being an earlier version of the new warp engines, perhaps from a different shipyard. In fact I recall something mentioned, perhaps in a novelization, about a Vulcan shipyard that supplies warp engines as well.
DID YOU KNOW?
This is the ship we ALMOST got in ST;TMP but luckily Gene Roddenberry changed it at the last minute to the ‘other’ Enterprise when he discovered that ‘phase II’ was being made into a movie!
You did a great job on this blender animation. Haven't heard from you in a while.
Thanks 😊
@@MrRmcconnell You're Welcome. Looking forward to the next video. Oh, how are you doing?
Staying sane in a state wide Shelter in place declaration?
@@ericmadsen9655 I'm lucky still working. I am working on my first video in eevee. have the ships built, now just storyboarding.
@@MrRmcconnell Stay safe, stay sane and keep those videos coming.
right?
🖖😎👍Very cool and very nicely well done and executed in every format way shape and form and in every detail provided indeed Sir!,👌...
Awesome! I still prefer red bussard collectors. I believe they were only blue for the TMP promos and posters because they didn't have time to reshoot the new model.
You need to make either a series or a movie. This is fantastic!!!!
I do like blue Bussards, implying deuterium laced water inside per Jjprise
Or the blue glow seen from current day fission reactor cores, ie Cherenkov radiation
Fantastic job!!
Thank you my Friend!
That should have been the re fit, then the 1701a should have finished out the series..🤓🤓🤓
This is real and Pure Star Trek!!! I could watch videos like this all day 😊.
Now THIS should have been in STTMP!
Great job 👏
The Enterprise under Captain Willard Decker, a few months before the major refit ,2270.
" Attention. Crew, This is Captain Willard Decker, prepare for departure from space dry dock for shake down cruise of USS Enterprise. We now have a new warp drive system on board. We will be testing this system for any bugs it might contain. Again prepare to get under way. Captain Willard Decker, out.," ( This is why Admiral Kirk kicked Decker out of the Captains chair on TMP. At this time Kirk had just became an Admiral, and Decker just inherited the Enterprise. Kirk just wanted to command the ship after its next big refit in 2271.) If phase 2 had been a real show, Willard Decker would have been the captain. a new Vulcan , Lt. Xon. Would have been science officer. And .Lt. Illiea would have been the new navigator. Instead they all shown up in TMP for their one and only time. Xon gets killed in the transporter accident with another crew person.
Now this is what the movie Enterprise should have looked like. Makes more sense. BEAUTIFUL!!!
This should have been the design for TMP and 2 and 3 until it's destroyed and we get the refit A. I never liked that they used the refit, but kept the original registry.
You're absolutely right. I don't know why they never used it.
Very nice version of the Phase 2 refit.
Beautiful Phase II concept.
Well, you can’t miss the registry number on this baby.
This USS Enterprise 1701 design is fantastic and should have been in "Star Trek the motion picture" as a new starship refit. Its a awesome design and still has the looks of the original ship series but upgraded!!! Excellent Guys!!!!
Excellent work!
I like the blue bassards. Another great beauty of time as it passes by. Thank you for sharing your art with your fans Robzilla 🖖
I love this design and they should have used it in the new series ❤❤❤❤❤.
Ich bekomme Tränen in die Augen, wenn ich dieses phantastische Video sehe, das ist ja detaillierter und viel schöner als im Kino Film Star-Trek.
It would be cool to have a comic series of the two years remaining on the original 5 year mission. It could show the Enterprise refitted to this design and work up to the events in Motion Picture.
My Favorite ship Kirk's Enterprise
Robert,
Thank you for this. Gene Roddenberry was on college lecture circuit, during this period (when I met him).
Gene received a call, that week, from Paramount deciding to switch from a TV series to a film, based on Star Wars & ET box office sales.
Is simply beautiful.
Very nice work. I enjoyed that very much. Thank you.
Absolutely superb. Great detail and care. Love it!
How about TOS- PHASE 2- Refit
I have to agree with Stuart Young: this is the best Phase II ship I have seen. It corrects some of the flaws of the original P2 design (the pylons!) and makes an excellent mid-way point between the TOS Enterprise and the movie version. In fact, I'm more than half tempted to kitbash a version of it from TOS and TMP model kits. Very well done.
Thanks!!
Nice work as usual.
I appreciate that
How about doing ENTERPRISE - E
Robzilla! Nice to see you back...nice job!!!
As always, it's a top notch video. I'm a addict of all your videos
Welcome to Earth 123. The multiverse is the only way to explain multiple versions of the Enterprise. On this earth Enterprise phase 2 was reality, Hillary was elected president of the world and in 2020 Earth never ran out of toliet paper.
Yep, and Donnie was squatted on the streets of NYC dropping a homeless load.
The in between of the TOS and TMP Connie. Nice job and I like the alteration of the station layout AKA Office Complex.
Frankly I like this refit better than the one we got in the Motion picture
I like the motion picture enterprise better
Wow! Nicely done. I love the end with the UFP logo zoom out. Very cool.
I really want to learn how to do this.
Why are you not making movies ? !
I really enjoy this video.
Muito bom...isso foi inspirado na brecha de tempo da missão de 5 anos do kirk que só foi passada 3 anos.
A nave está com um desenvolvimento intermediário entre a série é o filme de cinema.
Perfeito muito bom...
Vida longa e próspera 🖖🖖🖖
Thats gotta be the most beatiful Deflector Dish ive ever seen. XD
Every Time it's Awesome for me 😊
Excellent Details of the Phase 2!!! Nicely Done, Sir!!!!
Well done sir! Well done!
I'm surprised with technology these days, no one thought of doing a Star-Trek 'Phase-2' TV Series, (possibly with original actor's doing the voices, sadly some have passed away)
But with so many great voice actor's out there, this would be a series 'WORTH' making!
This would make a great intro.
Space…. The final frontier…
These are the voyages of the STARSHIP, Enterprise‼️‼️
Her ongoing mission: to explore STRANGE NEW WORLDS 🌎 , to seek out new life & new civilizations
AND to boldly go where no one has gone BEFOREEE…
Whoooooosh-shoooooOOOOOOOOOM‼️‼️
(This sound.. the sensation of the ship traveling faster than light‼️)
That was really amazing, I love your version of the ship. Made me want to start watching the whole movie with this version!

Great job Rob! :) she is a beauty
I like the addition of the phaser emmiters around the shuttle bay and under the engineering section. Make me think Kirk told starfleet that original design didnt have enough fire power.
I love the enterprise
Very awesome video.
In my head canon, there *must* have been a Phase II version of the *Enterprise* .
It seems completely implausible that Starfleet would have rebuilt the ship straight from the TOS version to the Refit, as suggested by the first movie. Why? Because rebuilding the ship so extensively would have been massively inefficient; it would almost-certainly have cost less to just build a completely new ship from the keel up than to tear apart and then completely re-build the original *Enterprise* .
By contrast, overhauling the TOS *Enterprise* into the Phase II *Enterprise* and then, some years later, overhauling the Phase II ship into the Refit seems like a completely plausible way of keeping the ship up to date with the latest cutting-edge technology.
One day, some person will find this "historical document" and remember what their time in StarFleet was like. Man, I hope we get to see this come to fruition. We were born on this planet, but damned if we have to die on it. "2nd star to the right, and straight on 'till morning."
What everyone gets wrong is the actual scale of everything. Think about what would be needed to have a Star Ship that acts as a war machine, a device to deliver colonists, ambassadorial missions, humanitarian missions, and so much more. Remember that they have to bring everything with them no matter where they go. That means maintenance shops, medical bays, science laboratories, sanitation, water reclamation, I could do down the list of what a real Star Ship would need to be workable.
Great work. The 'Phase II' model is a strange hybrid of TOS and TMP. I don't believe it was appropriate for the 1979 film. It looks more like a warship than Roddenberry's revised 'peaceful nobility' concept for Starfleet/Humanity. It seems bulkier and more formidable.
I thought that the phase 2 enterprise had a color scheme like the tos version. I still like the more blue color scheme, though. It looks cool (no pun intended).
Nicely done!
Beautiful.
If Sratfleet existed i would love to be Captain of the USS ENTERPRISE
This is a great video, don't get me wrong, but it does remind me how I'm glad the TMP version was the final one. The Phase 2 version was just too dated, too 70s. I love parts of TOS, but the designs just felt like stuff of that time, and yeah the same woulda been with this design. The TMP version however truly felt like a space ship. This and the enterprise d designs was when trek really got serious about the idea of interstellar space travel.
So why didn't Enterprise look like this in the TMP movie? This rebuild makes more s3nse.
Everything about the USS Enterprise physics was wrong. Other then Glenda the most beautiful thing i have ever seen . This is well done.
I thought Phase II was supposed to use the McQuarrie design, with the triangular secondary hull?
Not bad. However, one slight nit pick. The formation/navigation lights would not be on until all her major systems were powered up. Watch Star Trek TMP and you'll see what I mean. When the ship is in drydock and most of her main systems are powered down those are powered down too.
As someone who played with a Radio Shack Trash 80, when they were new. It saddens me to see that graphics have seemed to plateau for video games...
Simply incredible
I can never get my models to look this good with Blender
Another great one, Robert! I always wonder where Star Trek would be now if the Phase II show launched and they didn't go the movie route.
Why not BOTH as several tv shows did feature film theatricals, like The Man From U.N.C.L.E. and The Munsters.
Lovely scene but you know the neck on the constitution class just doesnt work except forvthe side view.😊
Awesome, What software was used to do this Rendering?
Blender 2.8
@@MrRmcconnell Thank You
Phase 2 was an ugly refit. Glad we never saw this on screen. Best left forgotten.
Beautiful! Although personally I've always preferred the red bussard collectors.
Looks like the Connie hybrid you sometimes see in Star Trek Online.
Absolute quality work. I loved the views of the space station where you could make out plants and people inside. My ONLY criticism is that some of the dissolves in the space station shots occur right when a camera move is starting. The dissolves should occur a bit well into the camera move (which I'm sure you probably knew). But other than that. This looks pretty great. Some great artistically inspiring work.
What could've been. Is it better than what we got? I think the line is very thin...🤔
My favorite ship Kirk's Enterprise with retro lights
BEAUTIFUL!
