Between these which is the largest?
What is the largest Enterprise?
- Thread starter kgartm1185
- Start date
The Enterprise-D is biggest* as far as overall volume is concerned, although the Enterprise-E is slightly longer.
In one version of Trek's future, though, it would presumably be the so-called Enterprise-J (designer Doug Drexler estimated the ship was about two miles in length).
*I'm not touching the nuEnterprise because her size apparently varies last time I heard, but she's presumably up there with the Enterprise-D (or maybe not).

Between these what? Each ship named Enterprise? The Enterprise-D is the largest vessel bearing the name to date. It had forty two decks and could hold a crew of more than one thousand people.

The Ent-E has a lot less internal space than the wonderful Ent-D, definitely. I wouldn't be surprised if the Ent-E is smaller on the inside than the Ent-C (Ambassador class), honestly.
Always wondered what a true successor to the Enterprise D/Galaxy class would look like, incidentally. The Ent-E is just a 'bad ass' ship so isn't adequate or suitable design wise.

The Odyssey-class

CBS authorized this design for the Enterprise-F after a contest for the Star Trek Online game. She's bigger than the Sovereign-class, but still just shy of the Galaxy-class.

The Bad Robot Enterprise. 
Enterprise NCC-1701-D: 642m
Enterprise NCC-1701-E: 685m
Enterprise NCC-1701 (alternate reality): 725m
The Enterprise-D has the most internal volume although the -E is a little longer.
The USS Vengeance dwarfs everything, at about 1450m.

Bleaugh, it's just a Sovereign but 'kewler' and more aggressive looking. Well, it fits that design lineage perfectly, but isn't fit to clean out the waste disposal system of the timeless and ever-wonderful Galaxy class.
How do we know the E-J is to that scale, though? All we see is a blurry image on a monitor in Enterprise.
The designer gave some states on the ship, she's just over 1 mile long, and that the saucer is slightly thicker than it looks.
Nope. The Odyssey-class is a beautiful design that fits as an early 25th-Century vessel perfectly, while still being in line with the Sovereign-class.
He proposed that it's 2 miles long and basically carried a city inside of it complete with parks, universities, and residential & commercial areas. Instead of turbolifts, the crew used site-to-site transporters to get around.
It's worth pointing out that the one and only time we saw the Enterprise-J ("Azati Prime"), we saw it from a window beneath the saucer section, yet according to the views of the completed model, she's flat. Oops.
I assume that they're making proper use of artifical gravity, and the bottom of the saucer is another ceiling - because if she's miles long. those windows are enourmous and it would take a brave crewmen to keep their orientation walking around on them!

The schematic of the Enterprise-J that's been floating around this thread is just a fan's personal interpretation of the design (as well as it's size in relation to the Enterprise-D), otherwise we don't know how big the windows of the ship are. Along with the ship's original designer who did the completed model, quite a few fans have come up with their own versions of the ship though.

The last thing a crew (unless you are an android) is to live in cramped conditions while far away from home.
Small ships sux.
