The ''Enterprise'' or USS ''Enterprise'' (often referred to as the "Starship ''Enterprise''") is the name of several fictional spacecraft, some of which are the main craft and setting for various television series and films in the ''Star Trek'' science fiction franchise. ==Development== According to ''The Star Trek Encyclopedia'', the registry number "NCC-1701" was devised by Matt Jefferies, art director of the first ''Star Trek'' series, inspired by an old science fiction cover that Gene Roddenberry liked, with a starship flying through space. Jefferies, who was a pilot, based NCC on 20th century aircraft registration codes. In such 20th century usage, an "N" first letter refers to an aircraft registered in the USA. A "C" for a second letter refers to a civil aircraft. Jefferies added a second "C" because he thought it looked better. The Franz Joseph ''Blueprints'', the book ''The Making of Star Trek'', and a handful of ''Star Trek'' novels state that NCC is an initialism for "Naval Construction Contract". In an interview with the BBC, Jefferies explained that NC was a U.S. designation for commercial vehicles. The Russians used CC CC. He concluded that as common opinion was that any future major space projects would be a combined effort, he would use a combined designation NCC. The 1701 had two functions, it represented the first (01) ship of a 17th federation cruiser design, and that the digits were unlikely to be misread, unlike 6, 8, or 9.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=BBC Online - Cult - Star Trek - Matt Jefferies - Why NCC-1701? )〕 In Gene Roddenberry's original ''Star Trek'' pitch, the starship is described as a "United Space Ship", and in two episodes of ''The Original Series'' (TOS), Kirk refers to the "United Space Ship ''Enterprise''". 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Starship Enterprise」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
