[QUOTE]Originally posted by The Mighty Monkey of Mim: [QB] TAS takes the cake for the Fewest Starships-in-a-Series award. Here is the complete list: -[i]U.S.S. Enterprise[/i], NCC-1701 (Duh!) -[i]U.S.S. Potemkin[/i], NCC-1657 ("The Pirates of Orion") -[i]U.S.S. Huron[/i], NCC-F1913 ("The Pirates of Orion") -[i]S.S. Bonaventure[/i], NCC-S2100 ("The Time Trap") -[i]S.S. Ariel[/i] ("The Eye of the Beholder") -[i]Name unknown[/i] NCC-G1465 ("More Tribbles, More Troubles") -[i]Name unknown[/i] NCC-G1495 ("More Tribbles, More Troubles") Annotations: 1. Obviously, a Constitution-class vessel under the command of Captain James T. Kirk, finishing the final two years (2269-2270) of the 5-yr mission started in TOS (2266-2269). 2. The same ship as from TOS and TUC, mentioned but not seen. It transferred the medical supplies to the [i]Huron[/i] for delivery to the [i]Enterprise[/i]. 3. A freighter under command of Captain O'Shea, carrying dilithium and medical supplies in 2270, attacked and raided by Orion pirates on SD 6334.1. (The ship was verbally called [i]S.S. Huron[/i] in the episode, but the hull bore a "U.S.S." prefix. Before Masao dug up some clearer pics, the registry was previously thought to be NCC-F1313. Non-canon sources hold the ship to be of the Independence-class.) 4. An older Starfleet vessel, apparently a precursor to the Constitution-class, that was lost in the mysterious area of space called the Delta Triangle, and was discovered by the U.S.S. Enterprise on SD 5267.3. (The [i]Bonaventure[/i] seems to have caused a lot of fuss for some people. In the episode, Scotty uttered the line: <small>"[i]There's the old [/i]Bonaventure[i]. She was the first ship to have warp drive installed![/i]"</small> Many people take this as a contradiction to the facts we now know about the beginnings of Earth's warp era. There is no reason, however, why Scotty could not have merely meant it was the first Federation vessel to have warp drive installed, or some other semantic explanation like that. [In fact, this would make sense, since the ship was clearly adorned with SF sinage of the same style as the 1701. Certainly no more difficult to circumvent than his line about Romulan warp drive in "Balance of Terror" [TOS]. The [i]Bonaventure[/i] is commonly held to be of the Bonaventure-class, which makes sense as it was clearly spoken of as if it were the first of its kind. It is also accepted that the ship bears and S.S. prefix but, like the [i]Huron[/i], this may be erroneous. [On the other hand, it may make sense, considering that from ENT we're seeing that SF used that prefix in its early years. Of course they'll al argue with me, but I don't really care. :rolleyes: ]) 5. The crew of the science vessel [i]Ariel[/i] went missing in 2270 while in orbit of Lactra VII and the Enterprise crew were dispatched to search for them on SD 5501.2. (Again, the 'S.S.' prefix may be incorrect, or it may not. The ship was never seen onscreen, and as it was a science vessel it may indeed properly have an S.S. prefix, however the crew was seen to wear SF uniforms, so it's definitely a SF ship.) 6. One of two unmanned SF robot cargo drone vessels escorted to Sherman's Planet by the [i]Enterprise[/i] in 2269 on SD 5392.4. (No name was mentioned, but the NCC was readable off the hull.) 7. The other of the two vessels mentioned above. Hope that helps. -[b]MMoM[/b] :D [/QB][/QUOTE]
