U.S.S. Enterprise: A New Coat of Paint


If you are a fan of the early Star Trek television series you will be happy to know that the Smithsonian Museum is taking good care of the U.S.S. Enterprise.

This Vimeo video and summary will fill you in on the details:

This is a short film showing the process of the detail paint work on the conservation of the original U.S.S. Enterprise miniature, used in all 79 episodes of the original Star Trek television series. The detail paint work was done between the 11th and the 23rd of April 2016 at the Smithsonian National Air and Space Museum’s Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Chantilly, Virginia. The model is now on display in the Boeing Milestones of Flight Hall at the National Air and Space Museum in Washington D.C.
