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 LucasfilmÕs 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 ÒThe BattleÓ and the Enterprise-C from ÒYesterdayÕs Enterprise.Ó)  Æ
