/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ 8. No Political Upheaval. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

Is no one going to address the fact that a star ship was named "Crazy Horse".
That’s named after the Lakota war leader of the Oglala from the 19th century.
I knew nothing of this. Now I have hours of Wiki articles and online stuff to read about Lakota. Thank you
A lot of vessels are named after real people.
Enterprise, Enterprise, Enterprise, Enterprise, Enterprise, Enterprise, Enterprise, Enterprise…
His greatest dream come true.
Don't forget the classic.
"NCC-1701. No bloody A, B, C, or D."
That's how you know he wasn't a real fan. He didn't say NX-01.
To be totally fair, if someone knew of the existence of all these ships, that's pretty deep in Trek lore already.
Enterprise, Millenium Falcon, Rocinante, Serenity, Event Horizon.
EDIT: Can't spell
To be fair, most people know the enterprise but have no idea there are letter designations. But I still like this meme.
To be fair the meme format is supposed to be saying 1 word that applies to multiple things. The joke is much funnier if the answer to "name 5 starships" is "the enterprise" because absurdity. Naming 5 different ships isn't a joke, that's just answering the question with a list.
To be fair, the format originally followed more closely to the actual source material, in which the second panel would read "Okay, name one X" and the third panel would mention the one most incredibly obvious answer. Which would still just be "Enterprise" in this case.
Mate, I'd have gone with simply enterprise enterprise enterprise enterprise enterprise
OG built in the 1970s, followed by nx-01. Gotta be chronological right
That is the whole point:
[…]most people people know the enterprise
, F, and G
...and the NX-01
..and the XCV 330
... if we're limiting things to interstellar ships.
We don’t talk about the J
~~What is this from?~~ I forgot about “Azati Prime”.
First mentioned in ENT s3e18 Azati Prime. Involves time shenanigans, so I won't spoil. Rest assured, it's really only a brief namedrop.
Edit: you got it
Enterprise is basically synonymous with “really important ship”
Enterprise, Moya, USS George Hammond, Mistake Not My Current State Of Joshing Gentle Peevishness For The Awesome And Terrible Majesty Of The Towering Seas Of Ire That Are Themselves The Mere Milquetoast Shallows Fringing My Vast Oceans Of Wrath
NSEA Protector, USS Orville
He even named six ships.
That says Enterprise A, not Enterprise, A.
