so, i have just completed re-watching ENTERPRISE
with the design of this ship in discovery-two things-one related to ENTERPRISE
-with all of those other worlds in the Federation, many with ships far superior to the NX class- why would other member worlds give up their designs for a continuation-though improved- of the original NX design?
many of the other worlds ships were much more compact--like they didn't have Nacelles that stick out vulnerable and ready to break off like say a Bonobo's nutsack-like the Andorian warships for example
it appeared that the other, preNX ships were designed better, though not with the same warp capabilities
so, is it possible that the TPTB's of this show may have used the idea of incorporating more alien member tech into the design?
-other thing
in the other thread on this TV show- it was posted/linked to, that each season of this show may/probably have a diff crew and/or a diff ship--so, is this "the" ship or might it change from season to season?
there wasn't any info about any of that in this story
personally, i would like a diff crew and ship each season;would get more of the over all story told
---------------------------------
another note---
st tptb's know (or knew) that they can include certain dialogue in a show without backstory BECAUSE the show's audience is a certain type who will get most things without it being explained
like in ENT (again-because i just watched it so i refer to it
) with the Xindi when Phlox and Archer are discussing the 5 races and how they are diff but yet based in the same genome
Archer says 'like on EARTH with Neanderthals and modern humans' --nothing more needed to be said cause TPTB;s knew "we" would understand that science
but NOW we know that the viewership is ever dumbed down and we get dumbed down content -- SO, is it just possible that this shows TPTB's think they can just paste a saucer section onto any design and call it trek?
I am just holding out for a good storyline and acting told in the ORIGINAL trek-verse
