Well, considering that FC put the first Terran warp ship's launch in Montana, I'd guess either Billings or Bozeman could easily have been the exact location. Maybe one is the site of the launch, and the other is Cochrane's hometown, or something.

I should also point out that, back in the day, 'Enterprise' was seen as a dumb ship name. Its built its own reputation.

The town was Resurrection, Montana. The namesake for the movie. But since Alien 4 (named 'Resurrection') aired some months earlier, the producers changed the title. But I'd assume the name of the town stays the same. [Smile]

Interesting... There really is a Resurrection, MT. And it is in "central" Montana, which is where Encyclopedia claims the Phoenix was built (I forget what was actually said in the movie).

But even if that's true, one of the 'B' cities could still be Cochrane's hometown. Maybe the other is Sloane's hometown, or something.

I highly doubt Starfleet would name a ship for Sloan's hometown...

...espcially when they didn't even know he existed... [Roll Eyes]

Lily Sloane...you know, Picard's love interest or friend (depends on how you look at it)...played by Alfre Woodard.

Damn. Sniped by Topher. (been on ebay too long).
