Just before Kirk triumphs and cripples Khan's ship, Scotty says "I have to shut down the mains... The radi.. ation...". So the Enterprise gets just as crippled during her moment of triumph. Now Spock has to save the day - and the good thing is that the system Spock is supposed to repair happens to be the same that propels the warp drive, so the ship is saved from the Genesis effect.<P>Had the Enterprise had her auxiliary power repaired instead of partial main power, the Spock's sacrifice would have been in vain since he would not have restored warp drive, only impulse. In that scenario, it would have been implausible for Spock to repair both the system Khan damaged in the final battle, AND the warp drive the entire engineering crew did not manage to put back together during Kirk's stay down in the caves of Regula!<P>Spock was something of a strategic genius in deciding not to repair auxiliary power at all during Kirk's absence, but to go for the more difficult task of restoring main power. Khan thought he had the upper hand when his ship possessed full auxiliary power and Kirk's ship had none, relying on the still-damaged main power alone. But Kirk's ship was now only small steps away from restoring her warp capacity, and in the end, this proved more significant.<P>Timo Saloniemi <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#E5EAEF"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <b>Dane Simri</b> <br /><small>Member # 272</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="2" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> <img src="https://flare.solareclipse.net/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.write(timestamp(new Date(2000,2,23,9,41,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><noscript><span class="dateformat-0">March 23, 2000</span> <span class="timeformat-0">09:41 AM</span></noscript><hr /> </font> <font size="3" face="Trebuchet MS, Verdana, Helvetica, sans-serif"> Someone ought to offer Timo a position teaching in the Starfleet Academy Department of Tactics <IMG SRC="http://flare.solareclipse.net/smile.gif">.

Thus, it would be easy to understand why the E-A was retired so fast after ST6 and prior to ST:G, and why Constitution-refits are so prominently absent from TNG.<P>Then again, the Enterprise-nil herself could have been at the end of her structural life, refit or no refit, while the design as such was sound. That would allow for the 2277 relegation of that specific ship to lesser duties, but would not explain the early retirement of the E-A (unless we assume the E-A was also a refitted high-fatigue ship).<P>I have no problem with a 2277 reassignment date, although as late as 2284 would also work fine. Or as early as 2272, if the refit really was somewhat unsuccessful due to its experimental nature.

(And if the whole fleet did, that would seem to support the Constitution's retirement. The refit was nothing special compared to the rest of the fleet.)<P>Personally, I think the reason is twofold. One, there probably weren't too many Constitutions left by the time the Enterprise finished her five year mission under Kirk. Certainly, out of the ones we saw in TOS, the rate of attrition seemed pretty high. Which isn't surprising, considering their duties. So a decision to refit the Constitution class might not have been a very large one to make. Especially if it was made partially for PR reasons. The Enterprise was a status symbol now, after all, and it isn't hard to imagine some political pressure to keep her in service.<P>Two, the Constitution class was plain unlucky. Her original role as a frontline do-anything starship was unmatched during TOS, but by the time of the movies we have the Miranda class to handle her patrol duties, and the upcoming Excelsior class to takeover the role of Starfleet's main presence in the galaxy. So while the Mirandas were able to find a niche and fill it quite well for nearly a century, the Constitutions found all their old jobs taken up by a bunch of upcoming youngsters.<P>------------------<BR>"What did it mean to fly?
