[QUOTE]Originally posted by The359: [QB] Due to Duhkat's new thread about Robert Legato, I decided to reread Bernd's Wolf 359 project, and was just wandering aimlessly when I came upon this famous picture: [IMG]http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/articles/wolf359/chekov-paul.jpg[/IMG] And then I was looking at [URL=http://www.ex-astris-scientia.org/articles/wolf359/chekov-bernd.jpg]THIS[/URL] schematic that someone drew up, featuring a drawing with and a drawing without the pod. And I've noticed something. The front of the pod is not identical to the back of the pod in the first picture posted. I guess you could blame the handle of the coffee mug on this, but you can clearly see the front of the pod doesn't taper to a smooth point like the back half does. Instead, it merely ends, and is cut at a diagonal, like... A deflector dish! The dish is hard to see because it's resting up against the edge of that coffee mug handle, and since the picture is rather bad it's hard to determine where the handle ends and the pod begins. Now going further with this, I believe the pod is a Galaxy engineering hull model piece. The shape looks about right, the only difference is the neck as been removed and the rear has been sanded down so it has that smooth rear end. You can almost see where the curvature from the bottom of the Galaxy engineering hull is, where those three large cargo bay doors are located. So, anyone else agree with me here? [/QB][/QUOTE]
