[QUOTE]Originally posted by Timo: [QB] I'd agree that post-2300 registries could go roughly like "last two digits of year of launch = first two digits of registry minus ten". Perhaps there was even a big makeover of the system where NCC-10000 was made to coincide with the turn of the century, and the registries then proceeded in batches of 1000 per year... That allows for NCC-57000 in 2347, to satisfy the backstory of the Renegade. And it also agrees with the Galaxy launch dates, assuming the other, 71000-range ships were launched within a few years of NCC-1701-D. But you can't make me believe in chronologically organized TOS registries. I'd count everything up to NCC-9999 as nonchronological - at most, things in the 8000 range would probably but not necessarily be from the 2280s or the 2290s. To believe otherwise would mean I'd have to give up FJ and SotSF, and to think that Oberths were older than Constitutions. No thanks. The highest four-digit regos in canon (save for a few Excelsiors) are either Constellations or Denevas, in the 3000 and 6000 ranges, respectively. We know the Constellations are from the 2280s-90s (since NX-1974 was still doing test runs by the time of ST6), even if we know nothing of the age of the Denevas. What sort of ship would this NCC-8165 be? Timo Saloniemi [/QB][/QUOTE]
