Sorry for the wee shaky camera towards the end.
A 79 year old captain by the name of John, has retired after nearly 61 years of service to Starfleet. Commanding the Excelsior Class USS Livingston for the past 40 years, he makes his last tour of his ship before transporting to a freighter that will take him back to his home on Luna Colony. He makes a request for the freighter captain to order his helmsman to flyby the Livingston so he could see his first and last command for one last time. While the Livingston remains at the starbase for some crew shore leave and to receive her new captain, John makes his way back home on Luna, wondering how he will spend the rest of his life without the uniform, and his ship.

Enjoy!

  • Should have shut the lights off one at a time.

    Why? The ship was not being decommissioned, the captain was leaving.

  • big ship i love the excelsior.

  • This was very well done! The music was perfect for the occassion of a Captain's retirement. This showed the relationship that existed between a starship captain and his first love. His ship!

  • GREAT WORK!

    

  • a captain's retirement should be like Judge dread. Give them a shuttle to explore the galaxy on their own.

  • After 61 years, John should be a retiring Admiral.

  • i;m probably the only one who noticed but the uss shirkahr was there either this is before the dominion war or they really know how to put a starship back together

  • John(Capt. ret), should kick back and have a rhum and coke out on the back 40. That's how he should spend his time out of the uniform and without his ship. Kickin' back.

  • what is the song playing?

  • Excelsior. The coolest looking classification of starship ever.
