Thanks, found it now.To the guy below, yeah I think you need to paste them into the location bar and enter them....though it didn't work once I'd already tried accessing them as a link. Ones I hadn't accessed worked when copy and pasting them...annoying [This message has been edited by BRUTUS (edited April 17, 2001).]

I had posted a topic about this a while back. I knew that there was supposed to be a new model built for the Pegasus, and I knew it was supposed to have four nacelles. However, I didn't know that it was supposed to be a filmable model of the Cheyenne. The statements made in the episode about the Pegasus' systems being the testbed for the later Galaxy class ships would have made much more sense if they'd have used the Cheyenne model instead of the Oberth.------------------ Lisa: "Don't you remember the story of Oedipus?" Homer: "Maybe five dollars will refresh my memory." Lisa (angrily): "Oedipus was the story of a man who kills his father and marries his mother!" Homer: "Uggh! Who pays for that wedding?"

That has always boggled me. If they couldn't afford to build a filmable Cheyenne, why did they build a NEW model for the Oberth for this episode.

I'd never heard that they built a new Oberth model for this ep, but it could've been alot more cost efficiant if that's true. Especially if they still had all the original molds and stuff that they used to construct the first one. When making 3-D stuff like that, making the molds is at least half the expense and time.If they had constructed a Cheyenne model, they would've had to have built all new molds, or at least copied and modified some of the Galaxy Class molds before they could even start wiring, painting and decaling the ship. ------------------ "The sons of the Prophet were valiant and bold, And quite unacustomed to fear.

I'm pretty sure it was a redress of the partially-obliterated Oberth model already made for "Hero Worship."------------------ "I can be creative when I have a good idea. That just happens way too rarely." -Omega, April 6

AFAIK, it was a reuse of the model that was built for ST3. They just relabeled it and made an asteroid around the model.------------------ [Bart's looking for his dog.] Groundskeeper Willy: Yeah, I bought your mutt - and I 'ate 'im!

I believe what the Companion said was that they had planned on building a new model for the Pegasus, but budgetary considerations forced them to use the already-existing Grissom model. ------------------ Lisa: "Don't you remember the story of Oedipus?"

A ha! thanks... my bad - I don't know why I remembered it as a new model... they must have done the model up then, because it looks more 'realistic' than when we usually see it.

http://flareupload.hypermart.net/psupload.htm You can upload your pic here. Just search for you pic on your hard drive and click the button to upload. The pic should be in this directory then. http://flareupload.hypermart.net/files/ Once you've uploaded, it'll tell you the link to it.

Many thanks PopMaze! AS you've guessed - I don't know much when it comes to the Internet and your help is greatly appreciated!The links are; http://flareupload.hypermart.net/files/cheyenne.jpg and http://flareupload.hypermart.net/files/galexploration_cheyenne.jpg The first is a picture of a model and the other is a top and side view - similar to that of the Niagara-class USS Princeton on another section. Hope that helps - and thanks again PopMaze for the sharing of your knowledge! What would I do without you?

Hate to tell you this, but those are old news. The first is a popular picture of the model, but w/ the background turned into a starfield. And the diagram is from the Starship Scehmatics site. Not even accurate, as we've since determined.------------------ "Although, from what I understand, having travelled around the Mid-west quite a bit, apparently Jesus is coming, so I guess the choice now is we should decide whether we should spit or swallow." -Maynard James Keenan

Mmm, the diagram pic isn't accurate? Looks fairly close to me. Oh well, I tried my best - they are the most popular pictures on the Ney for the Cheyenne-class starship though. Anyone know of any 'better' ones?

Yes. Careful reconstruction has demonstrated that the nacelle pylons are much, much closer to being straight horizontal. http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/schematics/cheyenne.htm --Jonah ------------------ "It's obvious I'm dealing with a moron..." --Col. Edwards, ROBOTECH
