[QUOTE]Originally posted by Identity Crisis: [QB] What makes you think that civilians follow the Starfleet practice of naming a class after the first ship in that class? Military and Civilian versions of the same aircraft have different names. It's more than possible that 'xfdhgfj starship manufacturing' produced a ship and marketed it under the name Ceres (there may or may not have been a SS Ceres). Starfleet purchased a whole bunch of them and called the first one USS Deneva, hence Starfleet calls them Deneva class. 'xfdhgfj' then sold the design to 'uiklj stellar engineering' who decided to market it under the name Monarch. Starfleet decommissioned some of her ships and sold them to 'uythy shipping' who sold them on under the name Merchantman. Whilst Stardate 22519.50 is indeed 14:49:12 GMT Monday, 9th July 2345, I don't think that that date fits the registry NCC-21166 very well. The dates and registries of the minor ships have never made much sense. Look at the USS Tsiolkovsky for an extreme example: NCC-35911 but apparantly commisioned in 2363! [/QB][/QUOTE]
