It looks like I might have killed this thread

Looking at funny maths, our threads are way more robust than that

It's like they've taken one scissor blade and made it a boat. That thing is cool.

Currently The Gorch Fock is visiting my home town...

On her way into the harbor, she bumped into the bank and is a little bruised at the front now:

Many onlookers on Monday made comments about how the ship looks like a futuristic spaceship. Coincidentally, the ship's commanding officer's title and name is Captain James Kirk.

No word on whether he was born in Iowa.

EDIT: No.

Is this boat upside down?

 

[GRtak]

No, it is not upside down. It relies on the "If I can't see you, you can't see me" theory. Much like a small child playing peekaboo.

We've built a much prettier version of that general shape, right on page 1 of this thread:

Does the Navy currently have a USS Enterprise?

EDIT: Sadly no

USS Enterprise (CVN-65), a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier (1961?2013)
USS Enterprise (CVN-80), third ship of the Ford class of aircraft carriers. Scheduled to be constructed and in operation by 2025.

Well, we all know where Captain James TA. Kirk will be heading in 10 years.

EDIT2: A strikeout through just a captial T makes it look like another letter.

You mean awesome looking boat! The front of the boat is a wave piercing design and the whole ship is stealthy, having the radar profile of a fishing boat. It's even driven by electric motors. So cool.

Ugly and awesome are not mutually exclusive

I think the DDG-1000's look great. Lots of great concepts tied into one hull.

Zumwalt started its first sea trial today.

It looks like a floating Star Destroyer.

I work down the street from the electronics test facility for the ship, it looks almost as trippy.
