[QUOTE]Originally posted by Mirror-Amasov: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Lee: [qb] Which is exactly what I said several pages ago. [/qb][/QUOTE]But it seems others have ignored your idea, which is why I brought it up again. ;) @Mim: Okay, so he's "from" Iowa, but before the movie came out, we never made a big deal out of this. "From" used to be "born in". But it isn't that important anyway. For all we know, they could have been on their way to Tarsus IV. Maybe the Kelvin was assigned to that planet. The whole problem is the ship's size. If the JJprise really is 700+ meters, this thing could be equally large without any problem. 800 people would be okay for such a large ship. Actually, it would not even mess with continuity to have such a big ship. Odd, definitely, but not impossible (you know, we don't have much of this era to compare to, the "Constitution=biggest of the fleet" is mere speculation). But if the ship is indeed *reasonably* sized (either by us, compared to a 300m-JJprise, or by ILM themselves), 800 crew would be ridiculous and we need one of the above 'passenger' theories. I also wonder what the 'official' number of crewmen (official for the 700+m-JJprise) is supposed to be. If the ship is 20 times as massive as the Prime-E, (and it apparently is as densely packed as the original and the Kelvin), it could have up to 8,000 crew members. No wonder they needed everyone they could get, including all students of the academy. :rolleyes: [/QB][/QUOTE]
