Why do people keep calling it "lunar ship", BTW? I thought it had been established it was an early warp vessel orbiting over a colony...

I've always thought of it as a Lunar colony seen below. But the nacelles seem to suggest a warp ship. And the fact that the ship shown right before looks very earth-based, it would be reasonable that the "lunar" ship is showing the first steps outside the Sol System.

And I, as someone who actually remembered Matt from our previous Calendar discussions et. al., would like to politely ask if he could whip something up of the Emmette as well, sorta like how we've seen views of the Intrepid et. al. I hereby recommend the use of Andy's firstborn as payment.

Pictures or no pictures, though, I'd like to know why it's the U.S.S. Emmette as opposed to just the Emmette. If this ship predates the NX-01, why would it have a USS prefix? Was it still supposed to part of some kind of combined Earth military force?
Oh... and what's the registry on her (if there is one)?

Perhaps the U.S.S. stands for United States Ship, just like naval vessels. Between First Contact and ENT, the United States obviously still existed, so maybe it was an American spacecraft.

(1) Remind me who you are again? (2) Are you serious about the ship being called Emmette? This is the official CGI model used on the show that we're talking about? (3) Is the "U.S.S." prefix on the model or did you just add that?
Thanks, -MMoM

I'd like to know where all this info about the lunar ship is coming from. I mean what is Lightwave, some sort of 3d model viewing program? And how did MattC gain access to the mode? And is the ship really called the Emmette? Does even have markings? I mean why write a name on the ship if it isn't even going to be visible. I liked to know the source of this info.
