She’s a fine ship
After seeing this, I never again want to hear someone tell me that I have too much time on my hands. Clearly someone else does.
I accidentally stumbled onto this almost-completed replica of the U.S.S. Enterprise while looking for something else. Ever go down a “rabbit hole” when surfing the web? Well this was the same thing. Exploration for it’s own sake is just one of the joys of Second Life.
The comments in the object descriptions suggest that this thing will be flyable and, I presume, for sale. The trick of course will be finding a space (the final frontier) large enough. It’s HYOOGE! Region crossings are gonna blow but, then again, warp drive is a tricky technology. This will be great for folks who want to do intense Star Trek role playing.
Check it out next time you’re in-world at SPACEPORT in Palmira II. They’ve also got Babylon 5 themed stuff. It’s a sci-fi geek’s dream.
The Enterprise for sale? Wow, somebody’s gonna prosper. Not sure about that live long thing though…

Please come home soon. K2 and the rest of her friends miss you.
Thanks. =D
November 10th, 2008 at 7:08 amHi I am the creator of the ship and bridge you where on. Yes she flies and can cross sim boundaries and I know a nice 6 sim big Vehicle Sandbox where the ship can be flown.
The ship in the photo is actually about 1/4 scale at 50 meters wide by 115 meters long. The bridge inside her saucer section is full scale.
You missed the full size ship that is several hundred meters below. She is 218 meters wide by 488 meters long. She does not fly but does have all the interior decks in the saucer and more. We are encouraging people to make fan films on her.
As for too much time on my hands no kidding. It’s called being an unemployed Graphic Designer who has Attention Deficit Disorder. Not a good combination for stable long term employment. LOL Second Life does give me the opportunity to keep my skills sharp and develop new ones.
