[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by a monkey with a keyboard: :p Why do you insist NX-59650 is an error?[/QUOTE]Mainly because it's already been admitted that the NX-59650 number [i]is in fact[/i] an error! I don't remember the exact quote, but Okuda said something to the extent that the effects company did not use the number that he picked out. Also, that number is totally inconsistent with the rest of the Starfleet armadas that we've seen. There's no arguing that all new-era ships (launched in late-TNG and beyond) begin with NCC-7xxxx. The only ways to address the 5xxxx number is through a convoluted explanation that involves long production delays or some other such bull -- or to acknowledge that the hull number was an error. Let's take a similar situation -- the infamous turbolift scene in "Star Trek V." The sign on the way CLEARLY said "Deck 73" or some other unreasonably high number. And yet, every Treknologist worth his Trek videotapes knows that that was a blatant ERROR... and therefore IGNORES it. Why can't we do the same with the Prometheus's erroneous hull number?
