I have to say that the Main Shuttle Bay is really an amazing slant; I never would have figured the entire middle of the saucer section was 'hollowed-out' like a space going Aircraft Carrier - amazing! Always wondered where those 'Runabouts' came from on the series . . . sure wish there was set of these Prints for the Enterprise-E.

This is a MUST set for anyone who's ever wondered what it would be like to walk the halls and decks of the Starship Enterprise.

The Star Trek: The Next Generation Blueprints are great, except for one thing: they don't show where the brig is. Other than that, they are great!!!

This book/set of blueprints is the most detailed I have ever seen... I spent hours and hours studying them, they were so detailed! They even show the location of the turbolift shafts, and the computer panels! The blueprints cover things not shown in the Star Trek: The Next Generation Technical Manual... Like the ship's aquatic life tanks, which house dolphins and various other fish and sea animals, or the Main shuttlebay... which is so massive, it could house a football stadium.

I reccomend this book to any 'Trekky' who wants to know more about the Enterprise than they are told by the Television Series.

Developed by Rick Sternbach, senior illustrator at Paramount for the STAR TREK franchises, The USS ENTERPRISE BLUEPRINTS give STAR TREK fans a whole new way to explore this facinating universe. Inspired by Franz Joseph Designs STAR TREK BLUEPRINTS from 20 years ago, Sternbach and his illustration team have, for the first time, given the fan a way to explore the massive vessel from television's STAR TREK: THE NEXT GENERATION deck by deck. Ever wonder exactly where LT Worf's quarters were? Want to know how to get from the Conference Lounge to Ten Forward? With these highly detailed blueprints, now you can find out. The plans consist of 13 sheets. Each sheet is lovingly drawn, and minutely detailed. But perhaps the crowning jewel in this package is the 16 page booklet accompanying the plans. The booklet, which contains a forward by Robert H. Justman, a producer of the original STAR TREK as well as THE NEXT GENERATION, is the record from a round table discussion featuring Sternbach and several other people who were key in the production of the television series. There are many facinating insights into how the series came to be, how the starship was designed, and several other topics sure to appeal to every STAR TREK fan. A sure fire collectable, the USS ENTERPRISE-D BLUEPRINTS are a must for the bookshelf of every STAR TREK fan.

I love these blueprints. I have one on my wall. These I got for eight bucks at a used bookstore. They really made my day, and I believe these are well worth framing. Which I must do with mine. It may take a while, but I'm going to get my downstairs all framed with these worth the cash blueprints. Okay, this isn't my best review, but these are definitely highly detailed. Ever wonder where Diana and Commander Riker's quarters are? Or where Data's might be? These are for you. Even when I wasn't a fan, but had seen bits and pieces of Star Trek; I always wondered about their ships and what went on inside. Sad, that I didn't get interested in this back when I watched Spock fall from the mountain in gravity boots...

I've always been a fan and also enjoy the engineering aspect.

This set of blueprints gives every detail and locations of the cabins of the crew.

Lots of fun to just read through the pages. Now I'll have to see if I can create it in my 3D modeling program, just because I can.

Yes, for any trekie fan, this is a must have item...though it makes one wish other star ships had blue prints as well.
