[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] The Phoenix from the first chronology doesn't look THAT much different from the final design, just a little. The models are the same except for the fact that the first one wasn't taking into account that the cockpit was based on a Titan V missile. So it was a custom-built cockpit on the old model. The Melbourne model isn't any more different from the final Nebula model than the Phoenix-Nebula (with the round sensor dish) is from the final model. Plus, the Melbourne wasn't just seen as a model, but also in "The Best of Both Worlds" (TNG) and "Emissary" (DS9) as wreckage in the Battle of Wolf 359. The stuff done by Okuda and Sternbach is officially considered canon. You're right though about if it's contradicted onscreen. However, some stuff like the transporter thing you can explain by saying: "Generally, Galaxy-class ships have six, but the Enterprise has eight." because you know that the Enterprise and other individual ships are often specially modified by the crew during missions. The Enterprises have always been just alittle different from other ships of their classes. About the Animated series, while PAramount studio policy does not at this point in time regard it as canon, it has historically been considered as such, and much of the information presented in it is valid. Hopefully, someday it will again come to be regarded as canonical. If you read my post on like the first or second page of this, you'll see why we know the Daedalus looks like it does. And BTW, what do you mean 'excluding displays'? You can't exclude displays because there's a lot of info comes from displays. Most of the ship info in the Encyclopedia comes from displays.
