The second C was added because Soviet aircraft used Cs, and Jefferies believed a venture into space would be a joint operation by the United States and Russia.

The Enterprise was originally going to be named Yorktown, but Roddenberry was fascinated by the aircraft carrier Enterprise and had "always been proud of that ship and wanted to use the name." The NCC-1701 registry stems from NC being one of the international aircraft registration codes assigned to the United States. Some of Jefferies' rejected design concepts – such as spherical hull sections and warp engines that encircle a ship – inspired future Star Trek vessel designs. He designed the Klingon starship seen in the third season by rearranging and changing the shape of Enterprise 's basic modules: a main body, two engine pods, and a neck with a head on it. He kept the hull smooth, with a sense that the ship's components were serviced from inside. Jefferies had created a small model of this design that, when held from a string, hung upside-down – an appearance he had to "unsell". ĭuring a visit to Jefferies, Roddenberry and NBC staff were drawn to a sketch of the ship resembling its final configuration.
Jefferies initially rejected a disk-shaped component, worried about the similarities to flying saucers however, a spherical module eventually flattened into a disk. He imagined the ship's engines would be too powerful to be near the crew, requiring them to be set apart from the hull. Jefferies' experience with aviation let him imbue his designs with what he called "aircraft logic". To meet Roddenberry's requirement that the ship look believable, Jefferies tried "to visualize what the fourth, fifth or tenth generation of present-day equipment would be like". Jefferies and Roddenberry did not want the vessel to look like any of the rocket ships already used by the aerospace industry or in popular culture many designs were rejected for being "too conventional". Art director Pato Guzman's assistant, Matt Jefferies, was responsible for designing the ship and several of its sets. Roddenberry further specified that the ship would have a crew of 100–150 and be incredibly fast. Note the prototypical elements used in Enterprise redesigns, other franchise vessels named Enterprise, and numerous other Star Trek spacecraft: a disc-like primary hull, a pair of offset engine nacelles, and a cylindrical secondary hull. The first color rendering of the Enterprise design soon after, Jefferies would realize the design into a small wooden model. It will be like a deep space exploration vehicle, operating throughout our galaxy. No streaks of smoke, no jet intakes, rocket exhaust, or anything like that. We don't know what the mode of power is, but I don't want to see any trails of fire. We're out in deep space, on the equivalent of a cruiser-size spaceship. Despite the research, he was more confident in what he did not want than what he did want.

Series creator Gene Roddenberry reviewed hundreds of science fiction magazines dating back to 1931 to gather ideas about what he wanted Star Trek's main vessel to look like. The Enterprise has repeatedly been identified as one of the best-designed and most influential science fiction spacecraft.ĭevelopment and production Concept and initial design Initially a vision of the potential for human spaceflight, the Enterprise became a popular culture icon.

The vessel influenced the design of subsequent franchise spacecraft, and the model filmed for the original Star Trek TV series has been on display for decades at the National Air and Space Museum. Matt Jefferies designed the Enterprise for television, and its core components – a saucer-shaped primary hull, two offset engine nacelles, and a cylindrical secondary hull – persisted across several television and film redesigns. Kirk, the Enterprise carries its crew on a mission "to explore strange, new worlds to seek out new life and new civilizations to boldly go where no man has gone before." The 2022–23 series Star Trek: Strange New Worlds depicts the Enterprise under the command of Kirk's predecessor, Captain Christopher Pike.
It is the main setting of the original Star Trek television series (1966–69), and it is depicted in films, other television series, spin-off fiction, products, and fan-created media. USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) is a starship in the Star Trek media franchise.
