This time I wanted to show how the average person in the Federation might travel. Probably on Starliners on regular routes, and within the safety of the warp lanes. Star Fleet ships, being relatively fast and well armed, can travel where they will, but personal and commercial traffic (which we rarely, if at all, see in TOS) would primarily reside in the warp lanes. I highly referenced the 1980 ...

In my episode “The Cargo Corps” it was pointed out in the commentary that the quantity of cargo carried in such ships, or even the TAS robotic cargo ships seen in the video for that matter, would be minuscule relative to the amount of cargo necessary for the Federation. My argument was that the Cargo Class ship was for emergencies when speed mattered. Bulk quantities would be carried in a slowe...

I can't make out what's being said over the blaring music, so I immediately turned it off, except for the Comments section. Don't bother trying to watch this until the music monster has been beaten back into its kennel. The music volume issue really is bad. Even the loveliest music sounds horrible when played too loud. While program theme music isn't always supposed to be in the background, neither is it supposed to drown out program dialog. I don't just click on Star Trek content randomly. I've been a Trekkie since I got to stay up a little later to watch the first run episodes of the original series with my father and older brother. My younger brother was born partway through the first or second season, and later on, he also became a fan while watching the reruns. Although I also like the Star Wars franchise, I like the Star Trek better. It's disappointing when anything I click on has a serious defect, making it unusable, but even more so when it's something that I am really into, like Star Trek. Please lower the music volume about 50 decibels so that I can hear the dialog over the music.
Good stuff, like it
You’re certainly no “Herbert.”
@@Tedinator01 🤣 Probably one of the best compliments ever! 🖖
So this is a voyager concept ripoff taking place 100 years before?
@@Otis_Art Hello. Unlike Voyager, the ship is purposely sent on a ten year mission to achieve a specific goal. The only similarity is that both are outside the Federation. Just trying to have some fun in the TOS era, outside the usual “rip offs” with all the usual races, ships, conflicts, etc…
I love these artistic takes and would love to hear more narrative, particularly how the factions of the crew came into being and came together and perhaps how they were affected by the Mariners' cultural exchange. I revisit "Children of the Sea" often both because of the worldbuilding, but also the artistic take on Trek. Well done!
@@skjain2 Thanks! There is definitely much more to the narrative, as a back story helps me organize and conceptualize what I choose to animate. But I do not want to write a novel… 😛 But I can keep adding sections in to fill out their ten year voyage… Really a cognitive challenge to figure out the modeling and animation, as well as an aesthetic challenge to try to tell a story with just the animation, sound effects, music, and what little voiced narration I can squeeze in… But it’s good to know some still like the TOS era feel… Trek on! 😀🖖
Have fun unloading that
@@stringercorrales6627 I think they would primarily use bulk cargo transporters, but the occasional physical load ins and load outs would be done with robotic assistance… 😃
The music is still WAY TOO LOUD! Background music is supposed to play in the BACKGROUND, not blow your brains out with a full orchestra up in your face.
@@Questor-ky2fv Point taken, but the music not intended to be background music. Compare it to the levels in STTMP leaving drydock scene (link below). The music there is more lush with a full orchestra, but it is definitely upfront. When the dialogue comes in I push the music more into background levels, but the music is there to set a mood, not there as audio filler. There is quite a bit of subjectivity in how to edit both visual and audio components. I am not going for any standard commercial mix, though most people have been conditioned to find that the most comfortable. This project more of a personal experimental and artistic endeavor giving me both technical and aesthetic challenges. I’m only one guy, there are limitations. I’m just putting it out there because I know a few might be amused by some TOS era adventuring… 😃🖖 czcams.com/video/vdBmYcMMHJw/video.htmlsi=xkmiv77mMM9nGlri
The background music is too loud, but the short story is interesting.
They look about 1/2 size. The primary hull if the saucer is equal to the Constitution class one is only two decks. Figure a shuttle craft TOS version is a deck tall (about 15, with hull and deck thickness) I think the portrayal here is too small. Edit: with engines the size would be about 12’, with 8’ shuttle hull alone. Still much bigger than here.
@@fractalelf7760 I just took a Constitution Class and created this scout from it, so the proportions should be correct. The outer part of the saucer is two decks, enough room for small shuttle/worker bee bays as depicted in some of my other videos. Actually a TOS shuttle is about 7’9” in height (citation below) which means my shuttle scale is relatively accurate. I scaled visually, so not perfect, but pretty darn close… www.cygnus-x1.net/links/lcars/broad-shuttle.php
Wow! Is that an Eagle class Starliner!? A tip of the hat to you, sir! Fred and Stan Goldstein’s Spaceflight Chronology is my favorite Star Trek book hands down and the booklet you referenced that came with Star Trek Maps is invaluable in making warp speed actually make sense vis a vis time and distance (for me, at least).
@@FASAfan Yes, I got that design from the Spaceflight Chronology and other designs from the Maps. I am trying to bring to life TOS, through the actual series and the 60’s-70’s Trek literature that I absorbed as a kid… 😃🖖
I would love a 1/350 scale model kit of that!
So would I! Actually I’d like two: One of the Adventure as it first starts out, right out of the shipyard… And one with the alien modifications and some battle damage. I’ve seen people bash a Constitution Class to make a relatively easy Destroyer or Scout. The basic Adventure would need those bays in the back, but a good modeler could probably do that, especially if they were closed, with not much issue. The Adventure with the alien augments, however, might be relatively easy to get the pieces placed, but lighting it I think might be challenging. I thought about having an Adventure model custom made, there are people who could definitely do that, but I think the cost would be prohibitive for me… Besides, with my virtual model I can take it on whatever adventure I can imagine… I am happy with that… 👍🖖
Nicely done. Great visual production. The," too much music" was a bit annoying though...Would have been just as good without all of it.
Hello. I composed the music myself to produce a different feel for the project… I definitely could have mixed it down, but I want the music heard. So always a balance between music too low or too loud depending on the desired effect. Some here like the music, some find it unpleasant. I just have to make the call based on my subjective aesthetic vision for the project. 😃🖖
Fun departure ! There are LOTS of stories that could be told in the Star-Trek Universe that don't _necessarily_ need Star Fleet _themselves_ ! Smugglers and Customs patrols for instance . AND this one hinting at interstellar tourism . Imagine being a paid lounge-singer on THIS interstellar Cruise ship ( or a migrating family opening a new world for Colonization . How about Military colonies at the fringes of the Federation charged with defending against incursion ? There you could have Ground - troop "Expeditionary forces" _combined_ with Star-Fleet ! No it CLEAR that "War" has NOT been abolished _throughout_ the Federation . So MUCH still unexplored !

Star Trek was a military dictatorship.
@@Oandad Star Fleet is all we really see of the Federation, especially in TOS. Star Fleet is definitely organized in a military fashion. But Star Fleet is only the Military/Police/Coast Guard arm of the Federation which is a federated democratic republican system. In other words, each planet controls its own affairs within the loose parameters of Federation law (basic rights). In addition each planet has representatives who direct and vote for Federation policy. Gene Roddenbury had the intention of creating a utopian society in which beings went beyond basic economic needs (post-scarcity) and beyond the racial/ethnic/national prejudices which have both plagued human history with conflict, exploitation, and suffering. He used this given utopian society as part of the setting and backdrop for the stories, but not much of the Federation government or even civilian life was ever explored. But it was clear the Federation was a benevolent political system that greatly benefitted the worlds and citizens of the Federation.
I never get that because of replicators
Hello. 1. My time period for these videos is TOS Era. Replicators not widely used and relatively primitive. 2. Even in later Trek it was established many substances could not be replicated, needed physical transport. 3. Many a plot point in TOS and later Trek involved shipments of one kind or the other. 4. In TOS in at least three episodes they showed mining planets, unnecessary if replicators could just fabricate the materials. 5. Therefore it is logical in the TOS era, maybe beyond, they would need a physical bulk cargo method. Because of the larger warp field and exponential power requirements to sustain it, it would probably be relatively slow, thus warp 2-3. Sorry for being so Trek nerdy, but I spent quite a bit of time on these videos and did think them through. Much of what I I am doing is just extrapolation or just plain making it up, trying to fill in some of the TOS universe. It’s all fictional, but I do try to make it logical at least to the point of being feasible within that world… 😃🖖 Source link given after relevant info from Memory Alpha: In the 23rd century, the United Federation of Planets had not yet perfected replicator technology for ships, though replicators already existed in industrial sites. Replicator technology was, however, in use by The Traveler's species, and the Beta 5 computer utilized replicator technology to manufacture several false identity cards for use by Gary Seven. (TOS: "Assignment: Earth") Starships of this time period were equipped with food synthesizers and other devices for producing clothing and machine parts on demand. This was a step forward, but did not achieve the quality and sophistication of the 24th century replicator. Replicator technology was not yet employed on starships as late as 2293. (TOS: "The Naked Time", "The Trouble with Tribbles"; VOY: "Flashback"; DIS: "Context Is for Kings", "The Butcher's Knife Cares Not for the Lamb's Cry", "Such Sweet Sorrow, Part 2") While not employed on starships, food replicators were in household use and able create dishes comparable in quality to home-cooked meals as early as the 2250s (DIS: "Whistle speak") memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Replicator

cool
perhaps adding tug leader or tender to carry the computer systems to ccordinate the tubs, and repair facilities, maybe a phaser to two. would be a good idea.
@@wbnc66 Regarding the tugs, I figured each cargo canister would have a control bridge capable of coordinating the tugs in the convoy. Being modular, the convoy could breakup or combine quite easily then. I put a bridge type structure on the ends of the canisters to represent that idea. Regarding repair, each canister would have a repair/maintenance crew, perhaps having a couple of worker bees in the dock/hanger areas on the side of the canisters. Major repairs could be facilitated by maintenance stations along the warp lane. Regarding defenses, these slow hulks would probably only be used in the well protected warp lanes. The Enterprise, and probably most Star Fleet ships, did not have to use the warp lanes since they would be relatively fast and well armed. So that is probably why we would never see much commercial or private space flight on TOS. I thank you for your comments, it makes me think more about how all this stuff works. Maybe I can do a vid of a convoy stopped for minor repair, worker bees out, and Orion pirates attack. But through procedure, the convoy informed Star Fleet of the stop and repairs , and a couple of Destroyers warp in and kick some Orion butt. If only I could animate a few Orion slave girls beamed over to the controlling cargo canister as a “distraction”… 😛🖖
@@bobfischer "The Orion Ruse" get started on that lol. Glad to hear that you have put some thought into it. Not a lot of thought gets put into commercial and bulk transport in sci fi, I have worked n a couple of TTRPG project on the subject so my brain was already primed to go..:Ok I wish I had thought of that!
Like it!
This has a very Star fleet Battles look to it. I very much liked that
Very well done!
Starfleet should have never sent out a one nacelle 'cannon fodder' starship into deep space in the first place! 💀
In this story the only thing that keeps this ship alive is that it is slightly faster than its enemies. It has a prototype engine that is faster than a Constitution. A Constitution would not have lasted very long. The enemies just have in general more advanced tech than the Federation, making it a miracle a Federation ship lasted as long as it did. That is why the Tranquil gave their advanced defensive tech to the ship, it was the only way they were going to make it through their mission. In general, why a single nacelle ship? In my scenario they need a super fast ship, (it has a prototype engine faster than a Constitution Class), one that can be equipped and launched quickly, and one that will not be noticed if it disappears. It is generally a Scout Class, but easily modified with Destroyer weapons so it is relatively well armed. However, it mission is not to fight, but to “observe, record, survive, report”… To mitigate issues with only one engine, the ship has been modified with a shuttle and a worker bee bay. This combined with new at the time replicators and manufacturing facilities in the ship, would allow them to repair the ship themselves. I actually have a scene in one episode where they repair a damaged nacelle. It’s all fiction anyway, but I think my “Trek logic” is sound enough for a fun little journey in the Trek universe… 😃🖖
Warp 3???? When the goods arrive the owners would be dead long ago.
At Warp 3 (27x the speed of light) it would take less than two months to get a shipment from Sol to Alpha Centauri and less than four years to go 100 light years. This would be for non critical bulk cargo, like sending mass goods on ocean cargo vessels now. Not for emergency situations, leave that to Federation Transport with their Warp 7 cargo ships. So, slow, but there probably would be economic incentives for this slower but cheaper mode of transport, just like today with ocean going cargo vessels… 😃👍
One reason this video works is because Star Trek is so well established that so many people know what essential Star Trek is like the original series. This video meets those essential standards in a very nice way.
Thanks! I did the Adventure series to satisfy my Trek nerd need to DO Star Trek and not just passively experience it. All very amateurish, but fun to tell a story and play in that world… Star Trek was definitely a formative experience of my youth, defining much of my foundational beliefs and perceptions. 😀🖖
Nice job. I like the vintage appearance. Reminds me of a combination of Star Trek, and Babylon 5
The special effects they could do on Babylon 5 in the 90’s took a whole professional effects team to do. With current technology I can achieve close to that with only myself and one computer. The current level of professional special effects in video is just beyond what a single person and computer can realistically do now. Also, the soundtrack I produced I create on a Korg Triton Extreme, which is a 90’s instrument and probably used on the Babylon 5 soundtrack. So, 30 years behind in production technology for producing 60 year old TOS style videos… All good… 🤣👍🖖
@@bobfischer Thank you. Great job. I like a good honest CZcams channel, and host. I'm subscribed. I will share this video with another Star Trek fan.
Ya gotta start somewhere. Looks like a destroyer class from Starfleet Battles. Love the voice over. Good work. I wonder if you could plot a course on a star map of the galaxy and bypass all the big known aliens empires and find small worlds that aren't an empire or anything.
Yes, you are correct, a Destroyer/Scout Class… First seen in the 1970’s publication The Star Fleet Technical Manual… Regarding your second point, that was the idea in my Adventure series, a course around and behind some of the Federation’s rivals, tracking down some serious mischief going on back there… 😃🖖

Those would be great for moving people to a new colony but with the Advent of replicators hauling material goods is unnecessary unless you're hauling things that can't be replicated
Replicators not widely used in TOS era. Even in later Treks it was established more complex molecular structures could not be replicated. Hand made goods would be highly valued and so would “original” goods. There also might be a sizable market for unreplicated food, since some people could taste the difference, or perhaps have cultural reasons not to eat replicated food. The replication cost in energy and equipment might make physical shipments, especially lower cost bulk shipments, more economically feasible. And speaking of economics, each star system might have a comparative advantage in producing certain types of goods, so that the efficiency in the specialization of production (think of a whole planet that specializes in just one component of a warp drive engine) would outweigh any advantage in replication. Those worlds might even have very specialized replicators to produce certain types of more complex molecules more efficiently than anywhere else. And many of the later Trek plots concerned a physical shipment of one kind or another. Not much was seen of the civilian side in TOS, but I think it is probable that they would have some sort of bulk cargo system. All fiction, but fun to fill the civilian side out a little. 😀🖖 Reference: In the 23rd century, the United Federation of Planets had not yet perfected replicator technology for ships, though replicators already existed in industrial sites.

@@bobfischer I'm familiar with it and understand where it came from. I just think it looks weird.
Yes, it is definitely different from the Constitution Class… Some of us grew up with the Technical Manual and those designs are as much Trek as what was shown onscreen in TOS. The mid 70’s were dark times for Trek fans. TOS and TAS cancelled, no definitive plans for new Trek… The Technical Manual published in 1975 kept that world alive for many… 😃🖖

@@bobologic6849 Hello. According to the Star Fleet Technical Manual each sphere could hold one Constitution Class, one Scout/Destroyer Class, and one Cargo Class, with one disconnected cargo pod. And it was a very tight fit. The drawing is quite clear. The sphere I showed in the video had a smaller interior, being designed to refit/repair one ship quickly. But if I had a completely hollow sphere, I could get three ships in there in a very tight fit just like was illustrated in the Manual… encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.com/images?q=tbn:ANd9GcQMsbAvqKVpebKcnKJTZTsqEKN2x1kgGOnIIQ&s

Okay, I like the video, but I've never heard of "Warp lanes" in Star Trek. Seems more like Andromeda. 🖖
Much of the “warp lanes” comes from a 1980 publication “Introduction to Navigation”, which was a booklet accompanying a set of Star Trek star maps and illustrations. Basically an extrapolation from what little was shown in TOS of civilian life, including civilian travel. And it makes sense, having well protected travel routes with navigational and emergence aid… Anyway, all fun trying to fill out the TOS universe… 😀🖖
