If you can name an aircraft carrier it, you can name your spaceship it.

In universe reason could be that CVN-65 USS Enterprise was active until 2012 and therefore during the show. I don't know if there are any rules against having two vessels with the same name.

Out of universe, well that would be a whole other can of worms.

The space shuttle Enterprise was active during this period though.

[-] hstde@feddit.de 9 points 9 months ago

True it was active in 1977 16 years after CVN-65 entered active duty. It was only a civilian test vehicle though and was only named enterprise because of public demand. Maybe that had something to do with it.

Do we know that Star Trek exists in universe?

[-] hstde@feddit.de 10 points 9 months ago

It should. When they travelled back to 1969 O'Neill identified as James T Kirk and Luke Skywalker. So both Star Trek and Star wars are part of the Stargate cannon

Isn't it also cannon that Teal'c loves Star Wars?

[-] LaunchesKayaks@lemmy.world 4 points 9 months ago

[-] zqwzzle@lemmy.ca 3 points 9 months ago

Yes season 5 episode 3.

[-] Arrkk@lemmy.world 7 points 9 months ago

There was an entire episode where Dr.Phlox and Harold Green talk about trek, it definitely exists in Canon.

[-] Magnetar@feddit.de 5 points 9 months ago

Damn, I never realized Phlox' actor was in Star Gate, and talking about Star Trek, even.

[-] MeDuViNoX@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago

Just name it CVN-66 USS Enterprise.
