I ment to say “Science/Explorer Vessel”.

Sorry bout that.

The ship could NOT hold all those people.

Was surfing the net and found your blog.
While brousing here, I found this post.

After reading, I can surely say…
The blueprints you mention above, have not all been lost to obscurity.

When I was younger (before the net era) I bought a Sci-Fi mag (don’t remember the name now), and in it, came 3 posters. 1 of the original painting, 1 blueprint of the exterior of the starship XCV-330 and 1 blueprint of the interior (bridge). I still have the originals from the mag., and have scaned them into my computer.
I also have posted them up, in my PhotoBucket, for anyone that wants a copy (not full size).
Here’s the link:

Anyone wanting the full size images, just e-mail me direct at lord_vahmp@yahoo.com

And pass them on to the next person….

Hopefully by passing them on, the ships diagrams/blueprints will return from obscurity.

Have a good one.

Laterz….

What I remember was that for the first season, the writing was very high quality. Then it dropped, and coniued to drop, to the sub moron level.

So you didn’t miss much. You didn’t rot your brain too much, so be joyful about that.

What I like to remember is that it was in part a study on man-machine interfaces. Beginning with Star Trek, going to ST:TNG through Voyager, then you had this one series, that completed the development there of.

That is, as time has gone one, authors have become more aware of what is likely and possible, in terms of man-machine interfaces. And how realistic they will be.

No need for Sulu, just tell the computer what you want done, and let her do it in the best way she can find…

I’ve never seen much of it, but now that you mention it, I do remember that female AI character.

Don’t ask what I thought of what happened to the writing on the show. You really, really don’t want to know.
