Not one of my favourites, but I loved seeing how many of the later standard features were gradually added, such as the phasers and torpedoes. Not having a tractor beam and having to rely on grappling hooks for the shuttles always annoyed me, as well as the lack of food replicators, but the fact they were always the underdog added suspense to the series.

@@M1tjakaramazov I tend to agree. I do like the overall look but the mass to line of thrust makes me cringe, if you look at the sub-light drive line of thrust and the mass placement it is extremely top heavy, the engines will pitch it up without constant counter thrust from the maneuvering thrusters, stupid, if the nasals had been just under the saucer more like the Akira class it would be better thrust balanced. guess they wanted it to look cool not go straight

All of the Starfleet vessels follow a certain standard, and then the designer for the Kelvin comes along and says "Let's try doing all these things upside-down and see what happens". I can barely stand to look at the thing. The NX-01 is a bit more basic, but it's the first prototype for what would later be standard design elements, and I love how it still manages to capture that elegance that would persist (Kelvin excepted) throughout Starfleet.

My favourite of all the ships and series for two Reasons, one is that it looked and performed like an expected “next step” invention. Starfleet was established but still scientific and logistical. The fact they needed to board MACOs to defend is a likely story in the development of space travel likely to happen to humans. The second was it was futuristic but only in increments. It still had the expected military submarine attitude to it whilst been ahead of the class. No civilian , no families just people working and developing, excellent work on developing this

Thank you as always for making this video. I initially didn't know if I liked this ship or not when watching the series but it quickly grew on me. It felt like everything had purpose and we got to see how they had to fine-tune all of the systems whilst on mission because at this point they had not perfected the technology yet, and I thought this was something we needed. Even got to see Tucker come up with and develop the "forcefields", as well as Novakovich's unfortunate transporter accident prompting them to add the Annular Confinement Beam.

I love seeing the development of the NX-01 but sometimes it is a bit weird storywise. It feels like a lot of technological development that we've seen in the Star Trek universe across several hundred years is created in that single family of ships called the Enterprise. I like how NX-01 encountered photon torpedoes and holodeck technology in alien ships and never exploited it but when one of the crew discovered/created something that will become a universal standard in the coming generations, that feels strange. That's the problem with prequel stories trying to make callbacks or references to series set in the future.

Love these videos. The NX was probably one of my least favorite Enterprises on the outside but probably my favorite interior. Always felt like how an early deep-space starship would look. Even 20 years later it still holds up. Don't think I can say any of the other series' interiors do nearly as well. Can't wait for more of these.

The NX might actually be my favorite Trek ship, maybe a three-way tie with the Constitution refit and the Galaxy. Thank you for letting me see inside it!

Another great video. The Warp 5 engine at the time the series started was the most innovative human tool.

I always preferred the TOS scale over the TNG scale. 1. It was simply the cube of the factor (warp 1 was (1x1x1)=1c, warp 5 was (5x5x5)=125c, etc.), rather than the factor raised to the power of 3.333... Much easier to figure out. 2. The numbers just kept going (so you could figure out what warp 14.1 was, if you wanted), rather than the scale completely changing above warp 9 because they wanted to cram every speed between that and infinite speed between 9 and 10. I'm convinced the "warp 13" we hear in the future of TNG's finale is there because they realized how dumb it was having ships travel at warp 9.9999 or warp 9.9999999.

Love your videos. The work put into them is felt. So my critique isn't meant in a mean way, however, the bridge is rather incorrect. There was 1 helm position, tactical and science had railing stations as well. You marked was should be the tactical station as the engineering station. The situation area was not closed off with support beams but rather an open area with railing separations only. Archer's Ready Room did not have a second door nor is the layout exact. Engineering and the warp core should be twice the size detailed here. Again, I don't say any of this to insult your work. Just being a nerd who loves this ship and your channel.
