U.S.S. Enterprise NCC-1701-F (2401)
The Enterprise-F was an Odyssey-class starship and was the seventh Federation starship to bear the name Enterprise. The vessel was under the command of Admiral Elizabeth Shelby during the events of Frontier Day in 2401. The ship and her crew were partially assimilated by the Borg Collective shortly after departing Sol Station. Following the destruction of the Borg, the Enterprise-F and the rest of the surviving fleet were released from assimilation. In 2402, the ship was decommissioned and replaced by the U.S.S. Enterprise-G.
U.S.S. Enterprise-F Bridge | Deck 1 (2401)
The captain’s chair on the bridge of the Enterprise-F was on a stepped, raised platform with additional standing consoles forward of the captain’s position on either side. The port and starboard sides of the bridge consisted of support stations for engineering operations and science operations, respectively. The lower level of the bridge, accessible via ramps on either side of the central area, consisted of stations for both conn and operations directly in front of the wide forward viewscreen. The rear of the bridge provided access to turbolifts on either side, and an accessway leading directly to the observation lounge in the center.
Production Info
Ship Model (Digital)
As portrayed in Star Trek: Picard - “Vox” (TV, 2023)
The U.S.S. Enterprise-F’s design was originally based on Adam Ihle’s submission to a “Design the Enterprise” contest held by Cryptic Studios’ online game Star Trek: Online. Artist Adam Williams crafted the initial digital model for the game, under the art direction of Jeremy Mattson, which was released in Star Trek: Online in 2012. When Star Trek: Picard production designer Dave Blass reached out to STO 10 years later to include the Enterprise-F in the show, art director Thomas Marrone rebuilt the model from the ground up, iterating on the design to have it fit in with the new Picard-era of Federation starships.
Bridge Set (Physical)
As portrayed in Star Trek: Picard - “Vox” (TV, 2023)
The U.S.S. Enterprise-F bridge was a re-dress of the U.S.S. Stargazer / U.S.S. Titan-A bridge from Star Trek: Picard. Dave Blass, production designer on Star Trek: Picard stated that newly available technology was employed to bring this bridge to life, with examples being the transparent OLED screens used on several standing consoles, as well as curved screens with backlit video projection for the LCARS displays on the large consoles on either side of the bridge.
