Did they have Jeffries tubes on that version of the Enterprise? If so, it is not exactly practical for crawling through a Jeffries tube.

Leaving plenty to the imagination and looking professional are two VERY different things. Something can be sexy, flirty, show off some curves, and yes... even be "tarty" and STILL leave plenty for the imagination. Would that work in a professional environment? Probably not. You won't get an argument from me there.

Ah sorry, I was not properly concentrating on what you said. I've also been told that NuTrek miniskirts are longer that TOS miniskirt.

We are talking about uniforms. I have never said it is not Star Trek to me. I really don't know if Mr Q has said that but he hasn't in the last few pages of this thread.

You may want to go and look up the meaning of the word conversation. The point of a conversation is that one person says something and then another says something RELEVANT to what the first person said.

Most technicians aboard the Enterprise wore coveralls. While Kirk and Scotty occasionally did in their standard uniforms, it was likely far more the rare exception than the rule. Uhura, in fact, wore a coverall over her uniform in one episode when she was poking around under her communications console...

Plus, Humans appear to be more sexually mature (or less prudish) in the Trek era than they are today. They don't go around snickering like school boys and saying "Ooo...I see Paris, I see France..."

But you don't have time to put on coveralls every time aliens invade your ship. Look at Janeway in Macrocosm. Ditch the jacket and jersey, pick up a Compression Rifle and hey presto, ready to take on anything.

Star Wars is Science Fantasy
Star Trek is Science Fashion, so miniskirts are OK.

I'm not sure what we will do with it once we modify it but it seems to be the best way out of any problem
bounce a graviton particle beam off the main deflector dish...
