Well, obviously it doesn't say "Enterprise" if that's the NCC number you made out.
BTW, here's the original FASA miniature of the Lotus Flower (the ship in the second Conspiracy jpeg).

Hmm, is that a Constitution-nacelle on top of it?

Of course not. He plainly stated that it read "ENTERPISE." Therefore, we can perhaps infer that this "Starship Enterpise" is commanded by one CPT Jim Bob Kirk & is infact some sort of intragalactic bakery-product transfer vessel.

Yeah, it's a, uh, a Baker class transport. See here.

The mystery ship that wasn't a Huntington tanker is very probably taken from the old Spaceflight Chronology. The book has several designs that look roughly like that, although I don't remember which one this is supposed to be. Will check over the weekend.

Timo: I know it's been awhile, but were you able to check the Spaceflight Chronology for the mystery ship?

Actually Dukhat, there is no ship in that book which correspond to that design. However, I will soon add a new section to my homepage. I just bought the book, so you can look forward to seeing all the starships, bases and what nots from "Spaceflight chronology" on the Guardian of Forever. I will also post a pic here as soon as I get home. I got it from a guy who has done a cool job with the mystery ship. You�ll see

I thought it said "U.S.S. Alaska," which could have been a reference to the FASA Alaska-class starships, of which the Enterprise-C was a member (according to FASA, since at the time there was no correlation between the Enterprise-C and the Ambassador class, which was then only referred to in dialogue about the Horatio).

Well, what was the Alaska's registry number? Does it fit?

Back to the good old days of screen-analysis...
the four words on the left side are pretty clear: To, From, Subject and Stardate.
To: The first is 'Cpt' for sure, then two short words, but it's not Jim Kirk. Below the Atlantic/Alaska/whatever (I thought it was Atlantis), registry 40xxx.
From: first word is Cmdr, followed by either the first name of the person or two short words. since I think the second word is 'in', I assumed it is Commander-in-chief. The name is unclear. The line below could indicate Planet/number/Base-name/coordinates or something.
Subject: No idea
Stardate: Most definitely 4, followed by either 1 or... something else.
The rest is unclear, too.
Do you think that Okuda still keeps those old Okudagrams somwhere?
