Exitprise?
How about some love for the lesser known ships like Pauseprise, Breakprise and SysRqprise?
These are the voyages of the starship PrtScrnprise.
Spaceprise,shiftprise
"ctrl-alt-delete"aprise
At least four or five according to on screen information.
I believe the meme above refers to:
- Archer's NX Class (NX-01)
- Kirk's Constitution class (NCC-1701 with no suffix, heavily modified to Constitution refit class for feature films 1 through 3)
- Kirk's Constitution refit class (started the letter suffix system with A)
- The Excelsior class seen briefly in Generations
- the Ambassador class seen briefly in an episode of TNG
- Picard's Galaxy class
- Picard's Sovereign class (the most recent in the series with a suffix of E)
As the seven starships named Enterprise.
There is an 8th that has been seen on screen; Archer is given a brief glimpse of the future Enterprise J by his fairy godmother Crewman Daniels. This implies that an F, G, H, and possibly I will be commissioned. I is sometimes skipped with registration numbers because it can be confused with the number 1. So if the show's in-universe "present day" is where ST: Picard is, a few decades after the events of TNG, there are four, or possibly five, Enterprises implied or confirmed in canon to be built over the next ~250 years.
To be fair, IRL there were 3 carriers, 3 sloops, 2 schooners, a patrol boat, a building, and a space shuttle
3 carriers? I know of CV-6 and CVN-65. Are you counting the Ford class under construction?
Yeah. To be fair, I was reading like the first 3 words for each bullet on Wikipedia
So we’re moving from steam to magnets, basically following the ENT intro. I hope to see the Phoenix launch in our time, but I guess we have to go through the Bell riots first.
They had to make sure history never forgot the name... Enterprise.
You could say, it's been a long road!
Actually that answer implies some nerdy knowledge.
Yo, that's basically the joke
True but that's how the meme works
I think in the original she asks: "If you're a cop, name a law." His answer: "Don't kill." is correct, but not exclusive cop knowledge and thus no prove.
However, knowing the correct number of Enterprises is, in my opinion, proof for being a Trek nerd.
Or is this meme so meta that it's joking about the meme... I don't even, we live in a society!
I don't know where the meme comes from but this is how it is used as far as I have seen it. A question "Name X whatever", one single answer and the joke is that the answer fits for X
Enterprise, Lexington, Hood, Farragut, Defiant, Yorktown, Pegasus.
