$ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ $ The Bible says that Starfleet has existed for twenty years prior to SS Enterprise NX-01, or 2131. This is an opinion survey. Do you believe that previous starships will a.) have NCC- in their registry? -or- b.) have a differnt combination of letters, say NAR-, in their registry?My opinion is that, since this is a Earth Starfleet, the answer might be b.

I honestly can't even hazard a guess about the Earth Starfleet ship registration system. The Enterprise Bible says that the Enterprise is a brand new ship with a revolutionary warp drive system capable of awesome exploration, etc. Hence, the NX-01 registry being used to mark a new direction in ship technology.Assuming the long length of time for ship construction, we shouldn't see another NX/NCC registry (assuming that this is the familiar NX = experimental and NCC = production vessel scheme). Thus, anything before the Enterprise should be using a different registry scheme. NAR? Maybe. UES? Maybe. NCX? Maybe. IOU? Maybe. Anything's possible except for NX/NCC (see earlier assumption note) for the first couple years of the series.

Is it official the Enterprise starts in the year 2151? For all we know it might start in 2171 or something...

Yeah, it's official that the Enterprise series is starting in 2151. Rick Berman and Scott Bakula have both confirmed this in the various press releases.
