I wish the showrunners would bring back smaller ships. A pack of ships the size of the NX class tech updated to the 24th century would be easier to build and can swarm like the TIE's did in Star Wars.
The NX was a perfect design for the series and its setting. I put her fourth on my list, but for humanity first diving into the depths of the galaxy it was well designed. It loses points to some people for looking more advanced than TOS, but if things were to look less advanced than TOS, they would be laughable.
So much was wrong with Picard, but... (Without arguing about the minutiae of how it was handled/depicted) bringing the venerable TNG crew back to the Ent-D was the best move the writers could've made. Quite possibly the only thing about Picard that will be (positively) 'memorable'.
Oh yes I had a tear in my eye as Picard sat in his old chair and said ENGAGE! An added treat was the voice of Majel Barrett Roddenberry. I bet wherever they are I hope they were both smiling when her voice once again was heard
I think a quote from Scotty should make it very clear which Enterprise is my favorite. "NCC-1701, no bloody A, B, C, *or* D." The original Enterprise in her TMP refit form is the most beautiful starship in Trek history.
I agree, the TMP refit is absolutely the most beautiful iteration of the Enterprise in Trek history. However, I have to argue with you on that point - the bridge the Scotty walked onto was the non-TMP refit bridge. Bloody shame, given the TNG producers could have re-created the TMP bridge. And that would have been perfect, had they done that.
That bit at the hallodeck where Scotty gets to see the Bridge remade... You can feel that same mix of feelings when the crew of the D take her out to stop the Borg attack in the Sol system.. For my favorite its a 3 way split from Enterprise NX-01, TOS NCC 1701, TNG NCC 1701-D...Tho I really do like the look of the NCC 1701-B just never really had the screen time to get attached to her... Only one I really did not like was NCC 1701-C, she just did not stand out for me....
The noise though.. All the noises on the constitution class (especially the bridge) keep reminding me of McDonalds kitchens. Would drive me insane to do 8-10 hour shifts.
My Favorite Enterprise is NCC 1701 A. I love the Refit Constitution class design, her reveal in Star Trek 4 chokes me up every time, and her final mission at Khitomer is brilliant. The A is my favorite, followed by the Enterprise E and my childhood ship, the Enterprise D.
The Enterprise NCC-1701... No A, B, C, or D... Whether it was in original condition or refit Constitution class, she will always be special to those of us who remember Star Trek before TNG. For me in the 1980's, it was reruns, but it was magic.
Correction "No Bloody A, B, C or D." Until the first movie it was the ONLY Enterprise. And, while it is no longer first canonically, it was the first! If it hadn't thrived in reruns, no other Enterprise would ever have been made.
@@mityaceUntil the FOURTH movie it was only the Enterprise. The first three movies were still the original Enterprise, just heavily updated. The Enterprise-A appears at the end of The Voyage Home.
I must agree but my father took me to see Star Trek The Motion Picture as a young kid and even though I was kind of bored I loved the Enterprise refit and later the Enterprise-A but when I saw the Enterprise-D I fell in love with it.
The only class with a luxurious bridge featuring a beautiful wood partition and full carpeting, as one would expect of the flagship class of the Federation; an organization whose member worlds all practice Resource Based Economies. All other bridges, save the JJprise, seem so utilitarian, with the most luxurious touch ironically being the hard lacquered floors. Seriously, why the frell wouldn't Starfleet put some artistry into the bridges when they have a nearly unlimited budget, if for no other reason than to make it a pleasant environment to spend eight plus hours an artificial day? As for the rest of the ship, the Galaxy class has a sleek futuristic hull that will still look modern in 2463. As for the future, I'm still hoping Steven Haack's ship makes the Enterprise-H.
One of my problems with Nemesis was E was never using her quantum torpedoes. They had to nerf her to make the Scimitar a threat, why does the E even still carry normal photons?
@@XH1927 They used them, but like half way through the fight when Troi was guiding Worf's targeting system. They only used like 3 of them. And then switched back.
@@thebuildbear Well, Quantum Torpedoes might be powerful towards the Borg in 2373 - but not anymore against the Romulans in Nemesis. Don't forget, that because of the Dominion and Borg Threats all of the Alpha-Quadrant races upped thier game in making their ships more capable. Which means that the Romulans most likely implemented stronger shields, that on the one side were defending well against Borg and Jem Hadar attacks - but also then against quatum torpedoes. In the end the torpedoes they used against the Scimitar were not really effective, so why wasting them?
@@acmenipponair Your line doesn't hold water in a post-scarcity setting. Photons should be completely supplanted by quantums the instant any retrofits required are completed (and E has quantum launchers in her design). And if the shield technology has progressed there's no reason to not throw what is literally a nuke with a bigger yield at said stronger shields. It's never a waste to SHOOT YOUR ENEMY.
There’s literally no other explanation for the fate of the Enterprise-E besides its appearance in Prodigy where it was severely damaged by its fellow Starfleet ships due to the living construct. That incident was in 2384. The Odyssey class USS Enterprise-F was commissioned in 2386.
That is true pretty sure the jab was half playful like yes it wasn’t his fault but doesn’t mean they won’t jab him for it… even if the Ds initial loss was because of Rikers actions as well
This is probably the best explanation we're going to get as to what happened to the Enterprise E. If Captain Worf of the E was at this battle, then it would indeed not really be Worf's fault. And while I don't think we specifically saw it getting destroyed, it is likely the damage was high enough to take it out of commission for recycling.
@@bobingabout yup and it would be an encounter that would make Worf want to step down, the ship is crippled by allied ships and no one has control over that
-NX-01 for her "vintage" design with all the emergency handles and the small type label bolted to every individual wall element. -NCC 1701-A for holding the title of best design refit ever. -NCC 1701-E for being the sword of the sky, slayer of Son'a and Remans and our base of operation in Elite Force 2.
My favorite Enterprise is the C, seeing her in Yesterdays Enterprise just thought that is a nice ship. Showing the transition of the B to the D might not be there in the top slots but she was a good ship.
Totally agree. The C always look like the proper successor to the original Enterprise, but larger and sleeker. Hope a movie or series is done about it someday.
I like to think that there was more to the story of Yesterday's Enterprise than what was shown. I feel that the alternate Enterprise-D followed Enterprise-C in the time portal into the past. Capt. Picard should know that his timeline will not change. I feel that Enterprise-D gave all of its data information to Enterprise-C(along with some of Enterprise-D's crew and support staff upgrade Enterprise-C's systems). Enterprise-C was not destroyed. It was Enterprise-D defend the Klingon base. Enterprise-C returned to Federation space with its future information that was given to Section 31. This is how The Federation was ready for the Borg and The Dominion war respectively, due in part to Enterprise-C obtaining the future Enterprise-D information.
Although I love the elegant design of the Galaxy Class - Enterprise D, I only wish that instead of the Titan Picard 3rd season should had made the Odyssey Class as the next Enterprise not decommission. The Titan is a hero ship of its own, and they disrespect her just like that.
My #1 Enterprise in all generations of "Star Trek" will always be the D. It's more than just my first-ever Enterprise, but my first-ever "Star Trek" hero starship as well. I love the "TOS" and "TMP" Enterprises, the A and the E as well.
"For five hundred years, every ship that has borne the name of the Enterprise has become a legend. This one is no different." -- Vice Admiral Nakamura, 2365
My fave is the NCC-1701-A - I love how it was shot in The Undiscovered Country. (Btw I reckon you used Memory Alpha as a big source for your script, as I recognise passages that I wrote for that site)
The refit was number 1 for many years. There's something about her that makes her seem like more than just a piece of equipment. Enterprise CV-6 gives off the same feeling. The nx is a close second with her function over form utilitarian look.
Galaxy Class, USS Enterprise NCC - 1701 - D. She is the ship that I grew to love the series with. She is the ship that I forged my fondest memories of the series with. Seeing her rise from the ashes like a Phoenix in Picard Season 3 brought me to tears and still gives me chills to think about.
I was kind of sad that we didn’t get a blue hand reach out for a handshake to admiral Picard. “I am Captain shon of the uss Belfast. I wanted to say thank you for saving my crew.” With the voice actor that played the voice of Captain shon in Star Trek online. Missed opportunity? I think so. Captain shon definitely was my favorite character in game.
I think the NCC-1701-E is my favorite. So elegant in design. So beautiful. I just love the shape of the saucer section and the beautifully designed nacelles. My close second is the Constitution refit NCC-1701-A. Such a simplistic and classic design.
what makes it even amazing, is that the Enterprise/Enterprise-A constitution refits are actually called "Constitution II class starships", which makes sense since the original Enterprise (pre-refit) is classed as a Constitution I class starship and the Enterprise-G is classed as a Constitution III Class or "Neo-Constitution Class"
The best in my mind is the Enterprise D, as it represented the truest purpose of the Federation and Star Trek of truly going where no one has gone before, discovery, playing poker..., training the next generation be they lower or higher deck, and other noble endeavors. Other ships may have done more, such as helping to form what became the Federation, explore the "wild west" of space with April and Pike and Kirk, or have stronger weapons like Sovereign Class or Neo-Constitution class, but only the D strove to be everything it could be, allowing the crew to constantly try to better themselves.
Over my 50 years of living, I've had many favorites, but as of now, my favorite is the Odyssey-class 1701-F. I'd have to say that my least favorite is the 1701-C. For 60 episodes, we knew what the C looked like, so it was with great anticipation that I awaited the graceful beauty of the vessel that Andrew Probert had crafted to come through that time-displacement rift. What came through instead was a hastily assembled ship crafted from the simplest of shapes. To say that it was jarring would be an understatement. Something else that was jarring was the renaming of the Titan. It should be a matter of fact understanding that once a starship has reached the pinnacle of having its NCC code locked, that ship will carry that name to whatever end fate has in store for it. 'Enterprise skin, Titan bones'
After watching Picard and thinking about it, it's the fat one aka USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D. Growing up with her on the small screen every Wednesday night on BBC 2 at 6pm was my favourite day of the Week, also seeing the most interior shots of her too. But early childhood it was the Constitution refit "from the original movies" so deffo interested in the new 1701-G.
The F is my favoirite. Not only does it represent the pinacle of federation technology at the time, it is also the most elegant design in service at the time.
What makes me laugh at that scene, is that the computer deliberately forgets to ask Scotty "Pre-Refit" or "Refit", because he served on both versions of the Enterprise before her destruction.
@@unimatrix82 Honestly, the D was probably the best example of wasted potential. She was grand, yes. But the Flagship of the Federation fleet should have been more visually distinct. If they'd made her bright white, akin to The Great White Fleet, she'd have stood out as the Flagship and would have made sense for the under usage of her in combat.
@@unimatrix82 Enterprise didn't do well when it was airing, but it is actually surprisingly popular now. The vocal minority are just that, a vocal minority.
Archer is absolutely one.of my favorite captains but the NX-01 herself? "Upside down Akira" was an apt description and remains so, nothing really special about the ship herself.
@@XH1927 That blandness just adds to the concept. The first flagship of the fleet that will expand human influence should be bland and unassuming. It helps perception.
The NCC-1701 Refit from The Motion Picture because it was what made me fall in love with the Constitution class over the Galaxy, Ambassador, Excelsior, and Sovereign Enterprises, and the Kelvinverse Enterprise is a wonder modern interpretation of a beloved classic and both are tied for my favorite Enterprise ships. (Also the Ralph McQuarrie concept Enterprise is gorgeous as hell and I would love an EagleMoss inspired model of it).
The Ralph McQuarrie design sort of lives on, because it is very similar in shape to the Crossfield-class. In fact there are elements taken from the Planets of the Titans design that are incorporated into the look of the Discovery.
My personal favorite is the Constitution refit Enterprise. However the Enterprise if hasn't had nearly enough screen time to really make a judgment on the Odyssey class
@@scooteryooper3133 i agree is basically a shangri-la class refitted into a constitution III class, it doesn't look bad it's great but is not as a flagship as the Enterprise F, no quantum torps phaser banks instead of arrays i mean is underwhelming for being an Enterprise in 2401
@@failomas1443I disagree. You don’t know what the G has as far as armament. However, we know that the Enterprise D is “ancient” compared to the G. So it has to be much stronger than Enterprise D and maybe even the E. Quite a worthy ship.
Galaxy class enterprise d. Next is the odyssey class with the Aquarius escort built into the ships frame. And my final third is original constitution class. I wish we got more season and got the Jeffries refit in a season of Star Trek. But the movie refit is amazing looking moving forward.
First time I ever saw a Star Trek was in 1992. It was Star Trek The Next Generation. I was 5 years old. Our local ABC station played it every afternoon from 4-5. I was instantly hooked and have been a fan ever since. The Enterprise D holds a special place in my heart
Enterprise A was my favourite. Dr Crusher should have checked Geordi's visor and Worf should have changed the shield modulationfrequencies and the Enterprise D wouldn't have been destroyed.
@@internetgas2020 in kirk Timeline world war 3 has started in 1992 in new timeline after romulan spy intervention from temporal war era world war 3 started in 2026
NX01 was always my favorite Enterprise. It just looks so sleek and nice without the engineering section hanging off the bottom. It also really reminded me of submarines, and I loved how everything was cramped, and tactile instead of digital
My favorite enterprise will always be the Galaxy class Enterprise D. Why? I like the separation ability. Turning 1 ship into 2 ships or turning the saucer section into a lifeboat. I love options. Wish someone would make a ship with an ejectable sick bay. Would allow treatment of severe contagious medical situations and not infect the whole ship.
USS Enterprise NCC-1701-E, it's appearance in First Contact and the level of badassery it brought to the movies that followed can't be stated, understated or overstated.
I have two favorites. I love the Enterprise 1701-E. Very sleek! But, my first love will always be the refitted Enterprise 1701/1701-A in TMP, WOK, Final Frontier and Undiscovered Country. I remember seeing the refit Enterprise for the first time in the theatres and was just blown away by how cool it was!
The Enterprise D will always be my favorite, followed closely by Enterprise E. I'm a child of the 80s and 90s, who grew up in Canada. I had a Light And Sound Enterprise D, sold by Playmates, and I had a few TNG action figures. I think, for a year, I was once part of the mail-in Star Trek Fan Club, which also featured a monthly magazine! 😊 I loved all of the original movies and TNG movies, and I was immediately smitten with the "new" Enterprise E. I made sad attempts at building plastic models of both D and E. I was a teen 🤷♂️😉 I'm 41 now, I still love everything about Star Trek, its values, and its culture! Thank you Gene Roddenberry, and thank you to all for this video! Excellent retrospective 😊❤ You know what to do... 🖖
NCC-1701 Refit from TMP. Having watched Star Trek on black and white 405 line TV (and occasionally on 625 live colour) in the 1970's. Nothing beat the wow factor seeing the refit on the big screen in 1980.
I found out recently that my favorite was the NX01. Enterprise was always my favorite Trek. But not long ago I watched a clip from Enterprise. And when at the end of the clip. When they cut to the NX01, I got a chill. I still get the same feeling every time since. This stirred a memory, somewhere I saw or read something about Archer and the NX01 during the first Romulan war.
I grew up watching the NCC-1701 and it holds a special place in my heart, but the NX-01 became my new love as she always was out gunned and under defensed whenever she met another species but somehow found a way to survive.
@@Lonewanderer30, true. Btw, I did think wasting two Enterprises (the E & F) for the G was a huge mistake. Especially since the supposed retirement date for the Enterprise-E was the early 2400s.
@@michaeldemarco9950 We're talking about Starships with a service life of at least 80 years, yet they've gone through more of them in the last 20 years than the previous 200. Yes, the E should still be in service, left alone the F.
I know I'm just fan-dreaming, and asking for a whole heaping of fan service, but I would have loved to have seen Geordy say something like, "We can use the same protocols that enable Fleet Command to function to bring the museum ships into the fight. The D was always meant to be a command ship, I was still working on the communications suite, but it should work." And then we see the A, the NX, maybe Voyager and a few others hold off the Borgified armada. I know, I know, fanfiction ...
The Enterprise C is such a beautiful ship. I think it serves as the ultimate bridge between the Enterprise B and the Enterprise D. It was also the first ship of the name to have phaser strip arrays instead of standard directional phasers. All around a gorgeous ship that didn't get near enough screen time, but the screen time it did get was absolutely amazing, and the ship and her crew went down as heroes.
My favorite is the NX-01! It was the first to “Boldly Go” and was instrumental in laying the foundation for the Federation! The ship and its crew seems very attainable to us now! I also will always have a special place in my heart for the first Enterprise I knew… THE 1701! No bloody A,B, or C!
If you look at the line, from NX-01 and up, with very few exceptions, the next ship is bigger, more advanced and more powerful than the previous. The notable exceptions are the Enterprise NCC-1701-A, which is basically the same as the Enterprise NCC-1701 after the refit, and the Enterprise NCC-1701-G, which was the Titan A, a much smaller ship more on par in size with the A. So, I would say the Enterprise F is "The Best" Enterprise. It's an absolute beast of a ship! It looks Amazing! Granted we don't see much of it, but if you're a fan of the E, you're probably a fan of the F too, as you can tell it's basically an evolution to the next step of the design, just by looking at it. If you want to expand things though, there's at least 4 different versions of the USS Entprise NCC-1701. There's the Original we see on screen in The Cage, and TOS. Then there's the Refit we see in The first few movies. Then there's also the Kelvin universe version, and the New Trek (Discovery and Strange New Worlds) version. You could in theory also expand this to 2 more entries with the ISS-1701, TOS version and New Trek version, as seen in Season 5 of Discovery. And then there's the J... Lets not talk about the J.
Enterprise NX-01. I love the struggles of new ship types and ships themselves. I like low tech and the crew fighting with the limited capabilities of early tech.
This episode overlooked the implication that the Enterprise D may eventually be recommisioned after a refit by the order of Admiral Riker. The refit would include the addition of a 3rd nacelle and a large phaser cannon.
I'm all about enterprise d... Not just because next gen was where my trek obsession was born, but because it was the last ship that followed gene roddenberrys direction that the future should get more and more simple looking as it for more complex. The bridge just always seemed so futuristic to me, more so than the following ships jammed full of lights and buttons.
I grew up with the D, but I always found the cobra shape of the secondary hull to be weird looking. She is one of my favorites, though, especially in her dreadnaught form with the spinal phaser. Ive always thought of the E ass the superior ship in every way and its sad that we dont see more of it. I hate the look of the G, it looks nothing like what a neo constitution should. The F has such little lore and screen time that its almost an anomoly like the J. I do prefer the way it looks to the G though. The original was a heavy cruiser and it too was a heavy cruiser. The G looks like a newish upside down miranda with a secondary hull and no arch.
You left out the incident with the Enterprise E from Prodigy. I like to think Picard Season 3 takes place in 2420, so that Star Trek Online timeline matches up. The Enterprise H is an Starfleet/Union hybrid to mark the merger and transfer of power from Starfleet to The Union. The Orville was there in the background. The Enterprise I was a Exploration ship sent out by Admiral Buck Rogers to search for remaining earth colonies. Enterprise J is a true galaxy colony ship circulating the galaxy.
My generation is the 90s star trek. Enterprise D Stng . Captain Picard best Captain. 2nd would Voyager. In 3rd place is the motion picture enterprise with the original crew. In 4th place is enterprise nx 01 with Scott Bacula And finally in 5th place is enterprise C in yesterday's enterprise
I will always be partial to the Enterprise-D... While every Enterprise is great, that one holds that special place, since I grew up during TNG's initial run, and have been a trekker since watching "Encounter at Farpoint" at age 5 with my mom...
Enterprise-D was my favorite, watching TNG thru my late college years and beyond. Loved the look of the ship, the fact that it was so versatile, handled so many missions and types of mission, and was virtually impossible to defeat in battle. Also, Enterprise-B was NOT in a rescue effort to save Federation ships when it was damaged by the energy wave ribbon. Enterprise-B was engaged in rescue operations to save 2 El-Aurian vessels with survivors from Guinan and Soren's former homeworld overrun by the Borg.
Favourites are the original Constitution class NCC-1701 and it's refit, the Ambassador class NCC-1701-C and the alternative future Galaxy-X/Dreadnought class NCC-1701-D.
I was raised on TNG, i will say where i saw her again my breath left me, when i saw the bridge again as a tear came down my face the word "home" left my lips. D is my home and will forever be my enterprise.
I grew up with Trek from the very beginning. But the re-fit for the movie is the one that made me go WOW. It is my favorite along with the "A". after that, I'd go with Archer's Enterprise. The "D" has grown on me over the years as has the "B".
The D was the Enterprise for me for starters , but I would say that I personally think that the E is best! Once it came along, being the First Contact Hero. But once the NX01 came along, I was a big fan of it as well
The Mighty 1701-D. It was the first ship truly built for exploration, not confrontation. It even had families aboard. Plus, I like the look and The Next Generation was my generation’s Trek.
I grew up with the original Constitution class myself, and eventually fell in love with the refit / Enterprise A 🥰. She is still my favorite Enterprise!
The D....I will always remember episode 1, far point and seeing the ships arrival, first ship on canon to have hollow decks, the galaxy class, was class no matter the name.
Enterprise D is my favorite. She's not just a ship, she's a home. more than that, she's family. She's also canonically a mother (7x23: Emergence). Seeing her big return in Picard S3 was like returning to a childhood home you haven't seen in years, and hearing Majel Barrett's voice tied it all together. if there was one thing that makes the Enterprise D the perfect starship, it's that everything about her feels so cheerful and inviting. Her interiors are warm, bright, and comfy, with a bridge that looks like a living room. Her shape is sleek, beautiful, and huggable*. She's always been there for her crew, and deserves her place of honor at the fleet museum. * for most people. one of my friends doesn't think she's huggable, instead saying she has a shape "perfect for love-making". I smack him every time he says that.
My favourite Enterprise has to be the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-A. It was my first ever Star Trek model that I ever built. I also love the movie-era and the Constitution-class Starship (Refit) is my overall favourite Starship design in science fiction as a whole. That being said, my overall favourite Starship is my own, the Constitution-class Starship (Refit), U.S.S. Jupiter NCC-1734, which was the Flagship of my Main Character, Fleet Admiral Jonathan James Cartwright in Star Trek Online, and features in all of my projects, including my writing, and I am currently building my Polar Lights 1/350 Refit Enterprise/Enterprise-A as the Jupiter, complete with custom decals.
NCC-1701 from the original series...which was curiously omitted here. I grew up with that ship and she has a special place in my heart...and apparently others' as well, since she is forever enshrined in the Smithsonian Museum.
LOVED 1701-E Sovereign Class. Hate not having closure with it.
....That was NOT his fault.
I like to think it’s at the bottom of an ocean or flash frozen in a glacier waiting to be discovered and take its place in the fleet museum!
@@themainSignNice one !🤣
Maybe we'll find out in a future star Trek series, hence why they're keeping tight lipped about it ?
You're right, it is a shame that we don't know.

Love the NX-01. The utilitarian look of the bridge is perfect.
I wish the showrunners would bring back smaller ships. A pack of ships the size of the NX class tech updated to the 24th century would be easier to build and can swarm like the TIE's did in Star Wars.
The NX was a perfect design for the series and its setting.
I put her fourth on my list, but for humanity first diving into the depths of the galaxy it was well designed.
It loses points to some people for looking more advanced than TOS, but if things were to look less advanced than TOS, they would be laughable.

E is definitely my favorite. The design is so incredible, and the movie it showed up in was so good, that I have a strong connection to that ship.
Yes Sir ! and the second one is the NX for me :) TbH i love all of Enterprises but we have to choose hihi
Definitely the Constitution Refit for me! The E-Sovereign class or the B-Excelsior would probably be my 2nd choice, they're all great though
D will always hold a kind of "welcome home" feel for me, but A and E always had that cool look to them.
...also, an Enterprise with capt. Worf in the big chair? Sign me up!
I think a quote from Scotty should make it very clear which Enterprise is my favorite.
"NCC-1701, no bloody A, B, C, *or* D."
The original Enterprise in her TMP refit form is the most beautiful starship in Trek history.
I agree, the TMP refit is absolutely the most beautiful iteration of the Enterprise in Trek history. However, I have to argue with you on that point - the bridge the Scotty walked onto was the non-TMP refit bridge. Bloody shame, given the TNG producers could have re-created the TMP bridge. And that would have been perfect, had they done that.
Agreed but pre-refit for me.
That bit at the hallodeck where Scotty gets to see the Bridge remade... You can feel that same mix of feelings when the crew of the D take her out to stop the Borg attack in the Sol system..

There is a reason fans like us cried like babies when we saw her again lovingly restored after 30 years.
The only class with a luxurious bridge featuring a beautiful wood partition and full carpeting, as one would expect of the flagship class of the Federation; an organization whose member worlds all practice Resource Based Economies. All other bridges, save the JJprise, seem so utilitarian, with the most luxurious touch ironically being the hard lacquered floors. Seriously, why the frell wouldn't Starfleet put some artistry into the bridges when they have a nearly unlimited budget, if for no other reason than to make it a pleasant environment to spend eight plus hours an artificial day? As for the rest of the ship, the Galaxy class has a sleek futuristic hull that will still look modern in 2463. As for the future, I'm still hoping Steven Haack's ship makes the Enterprise-H.
My favorite is the Enterprise-E, the Federation pimp hand next to the Defiant.
Imagine the E & Defiant doing a Pincer attack on a Borg Tactical Cube...
All 3 ships starting at 100%, this time. They'd F*CK that thing all up🖖💯
One of my problems with Nemesis was E was never using her quantum torpedoes. They had to nerf her to make the Scimitar a threat, why does the E even still carry normal photons?
@@XH1927 They used them, but like half way through the fight when Troi was guiding Worf's targeting system. They only used like 3 of them. And then switched back.
@@thebuildbear Well, Quantum Torpedoes might be powerful towards the Borg in 2373 - but not anymore against the Romulans in Nemesis. Don't forget, that because of the Dominion and Borg Threats all of the Alpha-Quadrant races upped thier game in making their ships more capable. Which means that the Romulans most likely implemented stronger shields, that on the one side were defending well against Borg and Jem Hadar attacks - but also then against quatum torpedoes. In the end the torpedoes they used against the Scimitar were not really effective, so why wasting them?
@@acmenipponair Your line doesn't hold water in a post-scarcity setting. Photons should be completely supplanted by quantums the instant any retrofits required are completed (and E has quantum launchers in her design). And if the shield technology has progressed there's no reason to not throw what is literally a nuke with a bigger yield at said stronger shields. It's never a waste to SHOOT YOUR ENEMY.
There’s literally no other explanation for the fate of the Enterprise-E besides its appearance in Prodigy where it was severely damaged by its fellow Starfleet ships due to the living construct. That incident was in 2384. The Odyssey class USS Enterprise-F was commissioned in 2386.
That is true pretty sure the jab was half playful like yes it wasn’t his fault but doesn’t mean they won’t jab him for it… even if the Ds initial loss was because of Rikers actions as well
Not sure if that was the enterprise because all the sovereigns in that episode had USS Sovereign on the front and NCC 1701-E on the nacelles :)
This is probably the best explanation we're going to get as to what happened to the Enterprise E.
If Captain Worf of the E was at this battle, then it would indeed not really be Worf's fault.
And while I don't think we specifically saw it getting destroyed, it is likely the damage was high enough to take it out of commission for recycling.
@@bobingabout yup and it would be an encounter that would make Worf want to step down, the ship is crippled by allied ships and no one has control over that
-NX-01 for her "vintage" design with all the emergency handles and the small type label bolted to every individual wall element.
-NCC 1701-A for holding the title of best design refit ever.
-NCC 1701-E for being the sword of the sky, slayer of Son'a and Remans and our base of operation in Elite Force 2.
My fav is the D. The Galaxy Class was such a great concept for Starfleet.
My favorite Enterprise is the C, seeing her in Yesterdays Enterprise just thought that is a nice ship. Showing the transition of the B to the D might not be there in the top slots but she was a good ship.
Totally agree. The C always look like the proper successor to the original Enterprise, but larger and sleeker. Hope a movie or series is done about it someday.
I like to think that there was more to the story of Yesterday's Enterprise than what was shown. I feel that the alternate Enterprise-D followed Enterprise-C in the time portal into the past. Capt. Picard should know that his timeline will not change. I feel that Enterprise-D gave all of its data information to Enterprise-C(along with some of Enterprise-D's crew and support staff upgrade Enterprise-C's systems). Enterprise-C was not destroyed. It was Enterprise-D defend the Klingon base. Enterprise-C returned to Federation space with its future information that was given to Section 31. This is how The Federation was ready for the Borg and The Dominion war respectively, due in part to Enterprise-C obtaining the future Enterprise-D information.
Although I love the elegant design of the Galaxy Class - Enterprise D, I only wish that instead of the Titan Picard 3rd season should had made the Odyssey Class as the next Enterprise not decommission. The Titan is a hero ship of its own, and they disrespect her just like that.
yep, I agree
My #1 Enterprise in all generations of "Star Trek" will always be the D. It's more than just my first-ever Enterprise, but my first-ever "Star Trek" hero starship as well. I love the "TOS" and "TMP" Enterprises, the A and the E as well.
"For five hundred years, every ship that has borne the name of the Enterprise has become a legend. This one is no different."
-- Vice Admiral Nakamura, 2365
Well said sir!!!!!!! well said !!!!!!!
My fave is the NCC-1701-A - I love how it was shot in The Undiscovered Country.
(Btw I reckon you used Memory Alpha as a big source for your script, as I recognise passages that I wrote for that site)
The refit was number 1 for many years. There's something about her that makes her seem like more than just a piece of equipment. Enterprise CV-6 gives off the same feeling. The nx is a close second with her function over form utilitarian look.
Galaxy Class, USS Enterprise NCC - 1701 - D. She is the ship that I grew to love the series with. She is the ship that I forged my fondest memories of the series with. Seeing her rise from the ashes like a Phoenix in Picard Season 3 brought me to tears and still gives me chills to think about.
I was kind of sad that we didn’t get a blue hand reach out for a handshake to admiral Picard. “I am Captain shon of the uss Belfast. I wanted to say thank you for saving my crew.” With the voice actor that played the voice of Captain shon in Star Trek online. Missed opportunity? I think so. Captain shon definitely was my favorite character in game.
yes, together with his Enterprise F
I think the NCC-1701-E is my favorite.
So elegant in design. So beautiful. I just love the shape of the saucer section and the beautifully designed nacelles.
My close second is the Constitution refit NCC-1701-A. Such a simplistic and classic design.
what makes it even amazing, is that the Enterprise/Enterprise-A constitution refits are actually called "Constitution II class starships", which makes sense since the original Enterprise (pre-refit) is classed as a Constitution I class starship and the Enterprise-G is classed as a Constitution III Class or "Neo-Constitution Class"
@@GenGamesUniverse Yeah, that is cool.
The best in my mind is the Enterprise D, as it represented the truest purpose of the Federation and Star Trek of truly going where no one has gone before, discovery, playing poker..., training the next generation be they lower or higher deck, and other noble endeavors. Other ships may have done more, such as helping to form what became the Federation, explore the "wild west" of space with April and Pike and Kirk, or have stronger weapons like Sovereign Class or Neo-Constitution class, but only the D strove to be everything it could be, allowing the crew to constantly try to better themselves.
Over my 50 years of living, I've had many favorites, but as of now, my favorite is the Odyssey-class 1701-F.
I'd have to say that my least favorite is the 1701-C. For 60 episodes, we knew what the C looked like, so it was with great anticipation that I awaited the graceful beauty of the vessel that Andrew Probert had crafted to come through that time-displacement rift. What came through instead was a hastily assembled ship crafted from the simplest of shapes. To say that it was jarring would be an understatement.
Something else that was jarring was the renaming of the Titan. It should be a matter of fact understanding that once a starship has reached the pinnacle of having its NCC code locked, that ship will carry that name to whatever end fate has in store for it.
'Enterprise skin, Titan bones'
After watching Picard and thinking about it, it's the fat one aka USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D. Growing up with her on the small screen every Wednesday night on BBC 2 at 6pm was my favourite day of the Week, also seeing the most interior shots of her too. But early childhood it was the Constitution refit "from the original movies" so deffo interested in the new 1701-G.
The F is my favoirite. Not only does it represent the pinacle of federation technology at the time, it is also the most elegant design in service at the time.
It is still trucking right along in the STO Timeline.
To quote Scotty..."NCC1701, no A, B, C or D"
No bloody...
What makes me laugh at that scene, is that the computer deliberately forgets to ask Scotty "Pre-Refit" or "Refit", because he served on both versions of the Enterprise before her destruction.
My favorite Enterprise is the NX-01. She was a great example of a first flagship for the United Earth spacefleet.
I know a lot of people did not like Enterprise series but i thought it was great. Out of all the ships i really loved the Enterprise D.
@@unimatrix82 Honestly, the D was probably the best example of wasted potential. She was grand, yes. But the Flagship of the Federation fleet should have been more visually distinct. If they'd made her bright white, akin to The Great White Fleet, she'd have stood out as the Flagship and would have made sense for the under usage of her in combat.
@@unimatrix82 Enterprise didn't do well when it was airing, but it is actually surprisingly popular now. The vocal minority are just that, a vocal minority.
Archer is absolutely one.of my favorite captains but the NX-01 herself? "Upside down Akira" was an apt description and remains so, nothing really special about the ship herself.
@@XH1927 That blandness just adds to the concept. The first flagship of the fleet that will expand human influence should be bland and unassuming. It helps perception.
The NCC-1701 Refit from The Motion Picture because it was what made me fall in love with the Constitution class over the Galaxy, Ambassador, Excelsior, and Sovereign Enterprises, and the Kelvinverse Enterprise is a wonder modern interpretation of a beloved classic and both are tied for my favorite Enterprise ships. (Also the Ralph McQuarrie concept Enterprise is gorgeous as hell and I would love an EagleMoss inspired model of it).
The Ralph McQuarrie design sort of lives on, because it is very similar in shape to the Crossfield-class. In fact there are elements taken from the Planets of the Titans design that are incorporated into the look of the Discovery.
My favourite is Galaxy Class USS Enterprise with 3 warp nacelles seen in All Good Things.
Me too! Was hoping it would have gotten an honorable mention.
I like the NX. Humanities first True step.
D was part of my childhood. Very important.
E however was a sleek lady 😊
My personal favorite is the Constitution refit Enterprise. However the Enterprise if hasn't had nearly enough screen time to really make a judgment on the Odyssey class
ENTERPRISE-A all day everyday!
8:50 Tasha just can’t get a break in any timeline 😢😅
The enterprise will always be one of my favorite.The best looking enterprise would have to be the D
Quite an Enterprising video 😁 The Enterprise F Odyssey Class is hands down my favorite.
i like the Enterprise-F, but my love is still the Enterprise-E; the Enterprise-G. We don't talk about that demotion
I'll talk about it all day long because I love it!
@@jasonavery8247ditto
the G is a good ship, just crappy to rename another ship
@@scooteryooper3133 i agree is basically a shangri-la class refitted into a constitution III class, it doesn't look bad it's great but is not as a flagship as the Enterprise F, no quantum torps phaser banks instead of arrays i mean is underwhelming for being an Enterprise in 2401
@@failomas1443I disagree. You don’t know what the G has as far as armament. However, we know that the Enterprise D is “ancient” compared to the G. So it has to be much stronger than Enterprise D and maybe even the E. Quite a worthy ship.
Where‘s the J?
it flew south for the winter
Lol we know like 2 things on the J
Galaxy class enterprise d. Next is the odyssey class with the Aquarius escort built into the ships frame. And my final third is original constitution class. I wish we got more season and got the Jeffries refit in a season of Star Trek. But the movie refit is amazing looking moving forward.
First time I ever saw a Star Trek was in 1992. It was Star Trek The Next Generation. I was 5 years old. Our local ABC station played it every afternoon from 4-5. I was instantly hooked and have been a fan ever since. The Enterprise D holds a special place in my heart
Enterprise A was my favourite. Dr Crusher should have checked Geordi's visor and Worf should have changed the shield modulationfrequencies and the Enterprise D wouldn't have been destroyed.
I really hated that the Titan was rechristened to Enterprise.
I like the Enterprise!
No bloody A, B, C, or D! 🖖
B and C hold special places in my heart. Hopefully one day they’ll get better screen time and have their stories fleshed out in alpha cannon
I like the one from Steange new worlds. Captain Pikes Enterprise
per cannon, isn't that the same ship as Kirk's enterprise? 🤨
@@DavidCoxDallas No, the Enterprise @olcountry8432 is referring to is the one from the Alternate timeline the Discovery Deconstruction.

@@DavidCoxDallasyes, it is. Despite what the haters say
@@internetgas2020incorrect
NX01 was always my favorite Enterprise.
It just looks so sleek and nice without the engineering section hanging off the bottom.
It also really reminded me of submarines, and I loved how everything was cramped, and tactile instead of digital
I think the enterprise D is the best ship to bear the name enterprise.
My favorite enterprise will always be the Galaxy class Enterprise D. Why? I like the separation ability. Turning 1 ship into 2 ships or turning the saucer section into a lifeboat. I love options. Wish someone would make a ship with an ejectable sick bay. Would allow treatment of severe contagious medical situations and not infect the whole ship.
well, Picards crew always treated the D like a lady, so she took care of them and always brought them home.
USS Enterprise NCC-1701-E, it's appearance in First Contact and the level of badassery it brought to the movies that followed can't be stated, understated or overstated.
Original NCC-1701 and Enterprise E forever!!!!
I have two favorites. I love the Enterprise 1701-E. Very sleek! But, my first love will always be the refitted Enterprise 1701/1701-A in TMP, WOK, Final Frontier and Undiscovered Country. I remember seeing the refit Enterprise for the first time in the theatres and was just blown away by how cool it was!
Long live the D 🖖
The Enterprise D will always be my favorite, followed closely by Enterprise E. I'm a child of the 80s and 90s, who grew up in Canada. I had a Light And Sound Enterprise D, sold by Playmates, and I had a few TNG action figures. I think, for a year, I was once part of the mail-in Star Trek Fan Club, which also featured a monthly magazine! 😊 I loved all of the original movies and TNG movies, and I was immediately smitten with the "new" Enterprise E. I made sad attempts at building plastic models of both D and E. I was a teen 🤷♂️😉 I'm 41 now, I still love everything about Star Trek, its values, and its culture! Thank you Gene Roddenberry, and thank you to all for this video! Excellent retrospective 😊❤
You know what to do... 🖖
If you're the left-tenant commander, who commands the right tenant?
NCC-1701 Refit from TMP. Having watched Star Trek on black and white 405 line TV (and occasionally on 625 live colour) in the 1970's. Nothing beat the wow factor seeing the refit on the big screen in 1980.
What ever happened, we can all agree that it was Worf's fault.
I like to imagine Quark somehow tricked him into pawning it.
I found out recently that my favorite was the NX01. Enterprise was always my favorite Trek. But not long ago I watched a clip from Enterprise. And when at the end of the clip. When they cut to the NX01, I got a chill. I still get the same feeling every time since. This stirred a memory, somewhere I saw or read something about Archer and the NX01 during the first Romulan war.
Well the Enterprise-A was a refited and recrisened USS Yorktown.
And recovered USS Yorktown NCC-1717, after it had been disabled by the Whale Song Probe in The Voyage Home.
I grew up watching the NCC-1701 and it holds a special place in my heart, but the NX-01 became my new love as she always was out gunned and under defensed whenever she met another species but somehow found a way to survive.
F always reminds me of a whale shark 😂
Thanks, now I can't unsee it 🙄😂 You are 100% right about that 😂😂😂
My fravourite is the NCC-1701-E. Love her very much. It was one ofmy inspiration
for my USS Enterprise NCC-1701-H
Enterprise E!
I really liked the design of the Future Enterprise-D. That phaser cannon and third nacelle made the ship look sharp.
The D forever!
The 'G' really is an insult. A glorified scout ship...
But, so was the Enterprise-A, at the time of her renaming in 2285. She was a temporary replacement in the dawning of the Excelsior Class flagships.
Real Ent G is the Eclipse class from STOits big and beautiful but deadly as fuck.
@@michaeldemarco9950 They still weren't there though, were they. And also, the A wasn't near as big a drop in class as the 'G.'
@@Lonewanderer30, true.
Btw, I did think wasting two Enterprises (the E & F) for the G was a huge mistake.
Especially since the supposed retirement date for the Enterprise-E was the early 2400s.
@@michaeldemarco9950 We're talking about Starships with a service life of at least 80 years, yet they've gone through more of them in the last 20 years than the previous 200. Yes, the E should still be in service, left alone the F.
I know I'm just fan-dreaming, and asking for a whole heaping of fan service, but I would have loved to have seen Geordy say something like, "We can use the same protocols that enable Fleet Command to function to bring the museum ships into the fight. The D was always meant to be a command ship, I was still working on the communications suite, but it should work." And then we see the A, the NX, maybe Voyager and a few others hold off the Borgified armada. I know, I know, fanfiction ...
J is just way to big
C is the best. But, canon also has the J, and that wasn't in the video!
Refit/A is the best design. It's a beautiful balance of utilitarian hard edges and dynamic sleekness. Looks great from all angles.
10:15 a correction. The Farragut was a Nebula Class ship, not a Miranda.
I will never forget the experience of seeing the Enterprise E flying into battle against the Borg cube in First Contact. Beautiful ship.
The Enterprise C is such a beautiful ship. I think it serves as the ultimate bridge between the Enterprise B and the Enterprise D. It was also the first ship of the name to have phaser strip arrays instead of standard directional phasers. All around a gorgeous ship that didn't get near enough screen time, but the screen time it did get was absolutely amazing, and the ship and her crew went down as heroes.
My favorite is the NX-01! It was the first to “Boldly Go” and was instrumental in laying the foundation for the Federation! The ship and its crew seems very attainable to us now!
I also will always have a special place in my heart for the first Enterprise I knew… THE 1701! No bloody A,B, or C!
If you look at the line, from NX-01 and up, with very few exceptions, the next ship is bigger, more advanced and more powerful than the previous.
The notable exceptions are the Enterprise NCC-1701-A, which is basically the same as the Enterprise NCC-1701 after the refit, and the Enterprise NCC-1701-G, which was the Titan A, a much smaller ship more on par in size with the A.
So, I would say the Enterprise F is "The Best" Enterprise. It's an absolute beast of a ship! It looks Amazing!
Granted we don't see much of it, but if you're a fan of the E, you're probably a fan of the F too, as you can tell it's basically an evolution to the next step of the design, just by looking at it.
If you want to expand things though, there's at least 4 different versions of the USS Entprise NCC-1701. There's the Original we see on screen in The Cage, and TOS. Then there's the Refit we see in The first few movies. Then there's also the Kelvin universe version, and the New Trek (Discovery and Strange New Worlds) version. You could in theory also expand this to 2 more entries with the ISS-1701, TOS version and New Trek version, as seen in Season 5 of Discovery.
And then there's the J... Lets not talk about the J.
Now that Star trek is in 32nd century I'd like to see a Universe class Enterprise
Enterprise NX-01. I love the struggles of new ship types and ships themselves. I like low tech and the crew fighting with the limited capabilities of early tech.
This episode overlooked the implication that the Enterprise D may eventually be recommisioned after a refit by the order of Admiral Riker. The refit would include the addition of a 3rd nacelle and a large phaser cannon.
I'm all about enterprise d... Not just because next gen was where my trek obsession was born, but because it was the last ship that followed gene roddenberrys direction that the future should get more and more simple looking as it for more complex. The bridge just always seemed so futuristic to me, more so than the following ships jammed full of lights and buttons.
I grew up with the D, but I always found the cobra shape of the secondary hull to be weird looking. She is one of my favorites, though, especially in her dreadnaught form with the spinal phaser. Ive always thought of the E ass the superior ship in every way and its sad that we dont see more of it. I hate the look of the G, it looks nothing like what a neo constitution should. The F has such little lore and screen time that its almost an anomoly like the J. I do prefer the way it looks to the G though. The original was a heavy cruiser and it too was a heavy cruiser. The G looks like a newish upside down miranda with a secondary hull and no arch.
You left out the incident with the Enterprise E from Prodigy.
I like to think Picard Season 3 takes place in 2420, so that Star Trek Online timeline matches up.
The Enterprise H is an Starfleet/Union hybrid to mark the merger and transfer of power from Starfleet to The Union. The Orville was there in the background.
The Enterprise I was a Exploration ship sent out by Admiral Buck Rogers to search for remaining earth colonies.
Enterprise J is a true galaxy colony ship circulating the galaxy.
2401. 250 years after the launch of the NX-01
My Enterprise growing up was "D". However, "F" will always have a special place in my heart.
My generation is the 90s star trek. Enterprise D Stng . Captain Picard best Captain. 2nd would Voyager. In 3rd place is the motion picture enterprise with the original crew. In 4th place is enterprise nx 01 with Scott Bacula And finally in 5th place is enterprise C in yesterday's enterprise
I will always be partial to the Enterprise-D... While every Enterprise is great, that one holds that special place, since I grew up during TNG's initial run, and have been a trekker since watching "Encounter at Farpoint" at age 5 with my mom...
Enterprise-D was my favorite, watching TNG thru my late college years and beyond. Loved the look of the ship, the fact that it was so versatile, handled so many missions and types of mission, and was virtually impossible to defeat in battle. Also, Enterprise-B was NOT in a rescue effort to save Federation ships when it was damaged by the energy wave ribbon. Enterprise-B was engaged in rescue operations to save 2 El-Aurian vessels with survivors from Guinan and Soren's former homeworld overrun by the Borg.
My favorite is the Enterprise B. It’s nice.
The Enterprise E was always my favorite...but I was exited to see the Enterprise D back in action.
I hope Paramount makes Legacy come true for its fans!
Favourites are the original Constitution class NCC-1701 and it's refit, the Ambassador class NCC-1701-C and the alternative future Galaxy-X/Dreadnought class NCC-1701-D.
I was raised on TNG, i will say where i saw her again my breath left me, when i saw the bridge again as a tear came down my face the word "home" left my lips. D is my home and will forever be my enterprise.
I grew up with Trek from the very beginning. But the re-fit for the movie is the one that made me go WOW. It is my favorite along with the "A". after that, I'd go with Archer's Enterprise. The "D" has grown on me over the years as has the "B".
The D was the Enterprise for me for starters , but I would say that I personally think that the E is best! Once it came along, being the First Contact Hero. But once the NX01 came along, I was a big fan of it as well
The Mighty 1701-D. It was the first ship truly built for exploration, not confrontation. It even had families aboard. Plus, I like the look and The Next Generation was my generation’s Trek.
That Sovvy is beautiful, but my favorite would be the 1701-B Excelsior refit. The Excelsior class will be forever my favorite ship in star trek.
I grew up with the original Constitution class myself, and eventually fell in love with the refit / Enterprise A 🥰. She is still my favorite Enterprise!
The D....I will always remember episode 1, far point and seeing the ships arrival, first ship on canon to have hollow decks, the galaxy class, was class no matter the name.
Enterprise D is my favorite. She's not just a ship, she's a home. more than that, she's family. She's also canonically a mother (7x23: Emergence). Seeing her big return in Picard S3 was like returning to a childhood home you haven't seen in years, and hearing Majel Barrett's voice tied it all together. if there was one thing that makes the Enterprise D the perfect starship, it's that everything about her feels so cheerful and inviting. Her interiors are warm, bright, and comfy, with a bridge that looks like a living room. Her shape is sleek, beautiful, and huggable*. She's always been there for her crew, and deserves her place of honor at the fleet museum.
* for most people. one of my friends doesn't think she's huggable, instead saying she has a shape "perfect for love-making". I smack him every time he says that.
My favourite Enterprise has to be the U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-A. It was my first ever Star Trek model that I ever built. I also love the movie-era and the Constitution-class Starship (Refit) is my overall favourite Starship design in science fiction as a whole. That being said, my overall favourite Starship is my own, the Constitution-class Starship (Refit), U.S.S. Jupiter NCC-1734, which was the Flagship of my Main Character, Fleet Admiral Jonathan James Cartwright in Star Trek Online, and features in all of my projects, including my writing, and I am currently building my Polar Lights 1/350 Refit Enterprise/Enterprise-A as the Jupiter, complete with custom decals.
That's awesome me like U.S.S. Enterprise D - G.😊💖🖖
NCC-1701 from the original series...which was curiously omitted here. I grew up with that ship and she has a special place in my heart...and apparently others' as well, since she is forever enshrined in the Smithsonian Museum.
The Enterprises that were the most short changed were the B and the E they were great, and I wish they got more screen time
