The two most recent animated series have been a smorgasbord of delight for starship fans with Prodigy pushing slightly ahead.

Aside from the streamlined USS Protostar, Prodigy has introduced Starfleet's own version of the USS Dauntless from Voyager's Hope and Fear. The Centaur Akira-class ships have made an appearance, as well as the much-loved Sovereign Class and Defiant classes. The attention to ship detail, and canon, is undeniable..

The two-part finale of the first season, Supernova, saw the return of two seminal vessels; the USS Enterprise-E and in a much more visible role, the NX-74205 USS Defiant chasing the USS Protostar through the incapacitated fleet of Federation vessels.

Prodigy has nodded to some of Star Trek's most iconic ships with crashed Klingon Birds-of-Prey, Kazon fighters, Vulcan cruisers, Borg Cubes, and Ferengi Marauders all showing up, driving long-term Trekkies into a ship-based frenzy.

A Star Trek fan from birth, I love to dive into every aspect of the franchise in front and behind the screen. There's something here that's kept me interested for the best part of four decades! Now I'm getting back into writing and using Star Trek as my first line of literary attack. If I'm not here on WhatCulture then you're more than welcome to come and take a look at my blog, Some Kind of Star Trek at http://SKoST.co.uk or maybe follow me on Twitter as @TheWarpCore. Sometimes I force myself not to talk about Star Trek.
