According to The Star Trek Database, the USS Sovereign (Sovereign Class) has the registry number NCC-77502.

You can find it here, with pictures that have the Enterprise registy number (scroll down to the 1/15/2000 update):

The question is, where did the author of the site get that. I didn't send him an e-mail, because apperantly he has very little time to read e-mails.

That rego number seems pretty dodgy to me. I personally wouldn't expect the USS Sovereign to have a rego higher than 74xxx.

There certainly isn't any canon rego that I know of.

I just realized this: The registry is NCC, not NX...

The registry was made up by whomever did the diagram, I assume.

The diagram shows the Enterprise registry NCC-1701-E...

Or it was made up by Jim Stephenson, then.

We'd know it by now if it was canon. It's most certainly made up.

I prefer the reg NX- or NCC- 74222.

...although 74222 is just as made as NCC-00001.

But, personally, I like NCC-1-800-547-7777, the registry of the USS Jim 'the hammer' Shapiro.

Does it matter if it doesn't have NX anymore? The Excelsior was only NX when it was testing its Transwarp... then it went to NCC...

Did Scotty seriously put the Federation behind 100 years when sabotaging the Excelsior? HEY! A nice Opportunity to get Jimmy Doohan on Voyager - make Scotty a holodeck advisory character - helping to make Transwarp for Voyager...

Shipschematics.net - who does all his line drawings - someone said they were from FASA or what ever - but there are really up to date ships there like the Hirogen relay station... whoever it is that does them - do they use a CAD program?

When trying to establish a rego for the Sovereign (basically a mute point until it's revealed in a show, movie or the Encyclopedia) keep in mind that she was probably launched after the Nova and the Intrepid so the rego probably starts with 75 or higher. I believe that both the Voyager and the Equinox have regos that start with 74.

I heard NCC-75025 (nee NX-75025)

But what is in a number?

Aban: I may be missing something but why did the USS Sovereign have to be launched after Voyager? Keep in mind that the Intrepid prototype was likely launched quite some time before Voyager.

I heard the Intrepid Class was launched first (2370-71) while the Sovereign Class was launched later in the year. Most class ships have NX registrations any way and once the class has passed the evaluations and testing it is normally awarded a NCC registration.

I wouldn't pay too much attention to naval classifications, names and registries given at shipschematics.net. I guess Jim sometimes makes them up for a better categorization of the ships. The word "official" only indicates that the design is supposed to exist in canon Trek.
