Star Trek: News Site Apologises For NNC-1701-E Gaffe

by | 3rd, November 2010

DO not mess with Star Trek fans. They have the facts. The site news.com.au has apologised for getting is to very wrong. They regret the error:

Yesterday, a news.com.au article incorrectly stated that the Star Trek starship USS Enterprise-E, otherwise known as model NNC-1701-E, was the successor to Captain Kirk’s original USS Enterprise… It has since been brought to our attention that the NNC-1701-E in fact came two models after Captain Kirk retired and was under the command of Captain Jean Luc Picard.

News.com.au apologises unreservedly for the error… We also agree that Patrick Stewart is a handsome man, a sentiment expressed by several readers.

And, yes, that is a better read than the article it follows…
