I remember as a kid sitting in front of the TV and watching the live broadcast of the first test flight. For it to also be named after a scifi show I loved was icing on the cake. I would have been okay with the original name planned, Constitution, as Enterprise is technically Constitution-class, and that name has some awesome lore behind it too.
Okay I couldn't fly it but I think I could figure out how to help get the astronauts out of they made an emergency landing in my cornfield. If I had a cornfield.

The Enterprise is at the Intrepid Museum in Manhattan.
