How To Canonize Your Starship Design In Eight Easy Steps

1. Build a model of your design.

2. On the model's stand, make a little plaque with the class and name of your ship.

3. Take photos of your model as evidence.

4. With model in hand, sneak onto Paramount lot using brilliantly forged I.D. badge (you can probably buy one of these at a convention somewhere).

5. Locate either the Voyager or the Enterprise-E ready room set.

6. Place model in a location that's inconspicuous enough that the film crew won't notice, but not so inconspicuous that it won't show up in the filming.

7. Sneak out of Paramount lot.

8. Watch the next episode of Voyager or the next movie to see your model's appearance in the ready room.

...And, voila! Instant canon!

Wow! And all this time I thought it'd be hard as hell it get some of my designs to become canon. I never relized how easily impossible it is.

You should ad:
"Welcome Mr. Hunt! If you choose to except this mission, the tape will self destruct in 5 seconds!"
That should be an impossible mission!!

But if it doesn't show up during filming, how are you supposed to spot it later?

If you put it in just the right place, it will show up. The real trick is to make sure it gets on film before the camera crew realizes that this piece of junk model was not made by Greg Jein.
