[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] Another reason why there's no starship named Enterprise until 2245 or so could be that there exists a barracks ship or buoy repair tender or other insignificant vessel named Enterprise. The damn thing keeps the name "reserved" while living a dull, low-risk and thus insufferably long life. While still nominally Starfleet, she ain't a real starship, and the organization just doesn't want to have two ships of the same name. In fact, NX-01 herself could live out the latter half of her service life as such an insignificant vessel... Whatever the explanation to why NX-01 hasn't been mentioned before, there's one thing I *don't* want to happen. I *don't* want to get a gratutious reference to "the famous Jonathan Archer and his equally famous Enterprise" in ST:Nemesis. Or in the movie after that. In a new spinoff show, I just might stomach a reference or two, of the type "Archer? Archer... The name does ring a bell. Wasn't he a starship captain, way back in the days of the famous captains Neerhurd Befur and Hozzat Suppozabe?" Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
