[QUOTE]Originally posted by blssdwlf: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Woodside Kid: [qb] Of course it is...just like most of what we debate on this forum. ... In any case, the ultimate source for the 288m length of the [i]Constitution[/i] (which forms the basis for the volume comparisons) is the TOS writers' guide. (Please don't point out the display with the [i]Constitution[/i] and the Klingon warship; by following links on the Starship Modeler forum, I've seen graphics which show that the display's dimensions don't match those of the filming miniature (and thus it's length data cannot be used as to compare visual effects shots for scaling)). If you accept the writers' guide figure for the length as valid, why shouldn't you accept the mass as well? Me, I'll go with Matt Jefferies, thank you very much. [/qb][/QUOTE]Hi Woodside Kid - I've looked at the screenshot display with the Enterprise and Klingon ship and followed links on starshipmodeler to try and find what you refer to as not matching the display and could not find any. Could you post a link or two? As far as I can tell the ships appear to match up. Thanks. BTW, anyone notice that the screenshot is almost the same as the line drawings found on pages 184-185 of "The Making of Star Trek" by Whitfield and Roddenberry? Its nice to see reference material actually make it into canon. [/QB][/QUOTE]
