The particular combination of letters and numbers for the ship's registry, NCC-1701, was chosen because it would be easily readable at a glance by television viewers. "NCC" (unofficially known as ' Naval Construction Contract ' was chosen by analogy to modern civil aircraft identification codes. In a popular video game by Interplay, Starfleet Command, NCC is known as 'New Command Cruiser'. == == == == == == == == Oh lord....I'm answering a Trek question....maybe I should do this under an assumed ID?
The famous numbers of all Enterprises was NCC 1701...they had a letter given on the later ones to designate it as a newer version.
It should be noted not all Starships had (have?) call numbers assigned. Why is a matter of some dispute as is the meaning of NCC or why call numbers would be reused on different vessels...kinda defeats the purpose.
