The starship Enterprise was originally designed back in 1964 by Matt
Jefferies, art director on the first Star Trek television series. The current
incarnation of the ship was designed by Andrew Probert. The actual working
blueprints of the ship miniature were drafted by set designer Greg Papalia,
and a six-foot model was built at Lucasfilm╒s Industrial Light and Magic
under the supervision of Ease Owyeung. A slightly smaller (but more
detailed) four-foot model was built under the supervision of Greg Jein during
our third season. These models are constructed from cast resin and
Fiberglas on a precision-machined aluminum framework. Interior lighting is
created by a maze of neon and incandescent lights, controlled by an external
power supply console. (Greg Jein is also responsible for the Nebula class
starship introduced during our fourth season, as well as the USS Stargazer
from ╥The Battle╙ and the Enterprise-C from ╥Yesterday╒s Enterprise.╙) ╞
