Default MOEBIUS-1 aka Flattop Ship (concept art) article

MOEBIUS-1? Yep, that's the actual name of the Flattop Ship as used in TOS. The modelmakers (Lorne Peterson and others) probably never saw where the name came from, but read all about that in a research article I just wrote on GALACTICA.TV:

Battlebuck.com owns the screen used model and has pictures of how it currently looks (which is somewhat different from the Apogee model as it was first made). As far as I know these are the only three pictures available of the model in making. If you like I can send you the hires (2.5 mb), cleaned up originals of the photos. Shoot me an email at info at galactica.tv.
