Origin and design

[edit]
See also: USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) § Origin and design

Although the original bridge set had been refurbished and repainted to serve as the bridge for the Enterprise-A, it was scrapped in favor of a completely new bridge set for the fifth film. The sleek "Okudagrams" created for this Enterprise-A bridge were later adopted in subsequent films and television spin-offs.[1] When production began on Star Trek: The Next Generation (1987–1994), several interior Enterprise sets, such as the bridge, were redressed for use on the television show. Later, some Next Generation sets, such as the Enterprise-D's engine room and conference room, were modified to depict interiors of the Enterprise-A.[2]

Depiction

[edit]

Kelvin timeline

[edit]

In Star Trek: Beyond (2016), which occurs in the Star Trek reboot's alternative Kelvin Timeline, the Enterprise (NCC-1701-A) is already under construction when its predecessor arrives at Starbase Yorktown. Following the Enterprise's destruction, its crew is reassigned to the Enterprise-A.

Sean Hargreaves designed the Enterprise-A introduced in Star Trek: Beyond (2016).[3] Hargreaves, who also designed the film's swarm ships and USS Franklin, stated that he was given the brief to "beef up the neck and arms" from Ryan Church's Enterprise design.
