His was the most... human.

Matt Jefferies, designer of the original Starship Enterprise, has passed away. I don't know how many hours I spent as a child drawing that ship, and though I moved away from pencil and paper, I kept on doing so long into adulthood.

His was a radical design, unlike any fictional spaceship ever depicted; though they're nice in their own way, its hyperdetailed descendants in the Trek franchises just can't hold a candle to it in my eyes.
