[QUOTE]Originally posted by Masao: [QB] At TrekBBS a few weeks ago, Alex Rosenzweig was answering questions about Starship Spotter, and I asked him how he reconciled the displacements of TOS ships with those of TNG and later ships. Anyways, I thought that EntD couldn't possibly weight 4.5 million tons, but I calculated the volume (with 8th grade geometry and calculator) and came up with 6.3 million cubic meters. The weight and the overall density (weight per unit volume) are consistent with those of TOS ships, if we assume stronger and lighter materials. TOS Enterprise had a volume of about 200,000 cubic meters (my calculations), so Ent D had a volume 31 times greater. I also calculated Voyager's volume as 620,000 cubic meters. [/QB][/QUOTE]
