Star Trek: Excalibur

Star Trek: Excalibur is a internet series (fan film) currently in pre-production which follows the adventures of Captain Thomas Nelson and the crew of the USS Excalibur (NCC-1705).

The USS Excalibur
Following the events of the disastrous M-5 trials, in which the entire crew was lost, the heavily damaged USS Excalibur was returned to Earth and put into drydock. Over the next 18 months the ship was repaired and upgraded to be used as the test bed for some of the design concepts that will be fully used on the USS Enterprise (NCC-1701) refit in 2273. The completely refurbished USS Excalibur was relaunched in 2269

The show's history
Star Trek: Excalibur was originally started in 2005. Due to the illegal destruction of the sets that were being built a law suit over the destruction of the sets was filed. Unfortunately, nothing came of it when the owner of the building they were renting went bankrupt. Everything was lost except for the vintage Madison chair used as part of the captains chair and the blueprints used for constructing the sets. All their tools were stolen and everyone of the vintage Burke chairs seen in the video were also lost.

Excalibur has started over and is currently looking for a new place to rebuild and funding to start full production again. The show has 9 completed scripts and 5 more in 1st and 2nd draft. Additional writers are currently being considered and the production is searching for additional crew to assist in the project.

The show is based in Las Vegas NV.
