Can’t remember which Star Trek movie this ship was in, but I vaguely remember a wonderful moment when Chekhov was at or in the ship, reporting to Kirk that he was at “the Enterprise”.

That one Star Trek incarnation with Scott Bakula had a bunch of Enterprises during the open sequence except this one if I remember right. It wasn’t that great a series.

That would be "Star Trek IV: The Voyage Home" when they went back in time to save the whales. Made more poignant, I'd mention, by the fact that the original Starship Enterprise (N-C-C-1-7-0-1. No bloody A - B - C - or D!) had been blown up and then burnt up via atmospheric reentry in Star Trek III.

Unfortunately, when the movie was shot Enterprise was on a WestPac deployment. And carrier row at Alameda didn't have the best visuals for shooting the scene you mention. So they shot the scene on North Island (San Diego) and the carrier in the background playing Enterprise was really USS Ranger (CV-61)

It was Star Trek 4, and they were not on the Enterprise. That was filmed in a Main Mach. Space on the USS Saratoga in port at NAS North Island, located on Coronado Island in San Diego. I was stationed on the USS Kitty Hawk that was tied to the same pier at the time. I always laughed when I saw the movie as they were collecting radiation from the “Enclosed Operating Space” on a conventional carrier, no reactor on board at all.
