Topic: Star Trek - The Next Generation, Episode 177

[IndyShark]

I was hoping you guys can help. In "All Good Things" the Enterprise D has three warp nacells. Can someone explain why please?

Also, in the episode where they meet an Enterprise from the past and it goes back with Tasha Yar on a suicide mission to fight the Romulans and defend the Klingons, which Enterprise is that? I believe that's the Enterprise C.


Finally,  I believe the Enterprise B is not an Excelsior class starship. Any comments?


Thank you all!

The Enterprise D went through a massive refit (It's only several decades old then) which allows it to go past Warp 10 (I think Warp 13?).

You are correct, when the Enterprise C comes FORWARD in time it temporarily changes the past, it is the Enterprise C.

Finally, the Enterprise B IS an Excelsior Class Starship, but a later model than the Excelsior was.

I can only assume that she (enterprise D)  has three nacelles for two reasons,
1) she is a dated design and needs the extra warp power to keep the class viable when sov's become the norm for that use at that time.
2) she is refitted with a starbase phaser under the main saucer section that requires that much power to fire, as evidenced when she blew holes into the vorcha boom and hull in that episode.

"Yesterday's Enterprise" was the NCC1701-C that came thru a temporal anomoly.  In so doing, Tasha Yar came back to life (she was killed by the "Skin of Evil" for amusement), the federation was on the losing end of a long bloody war with the glorious klingon empire, as a result of the NCC-1701-C "fleeing" from the romulan attack on the klingon outpost.  She did in fact not "flee" but entered the anomoly, Guinen advised Picard to send the ship back, and told Yar "I am not supposed to know you at all".

In the movie "Generations" you are left with the perception that the NCC-1701-B is a modified excelsior class.  This is the case.  HOWEVER the B differed from the Excelsior in that the warp core is a standard warp core, whereas the Excelsior was the test bed for the unsuccessful "trans-warp drive".

Thanks all!

I need to watch those episodes again. It's been too long.
