Looks like we're getting at least one new ship for hte finale - hopefully a new Starfleet ship.

If the rumour is true and we get to see a "future" Earth after everyone's home, I wanna see a Prometheus class starship. Lots of them, in fact. Hell, in the present too. Let's bring the old girl back for another round!

The Prometheus escorts Voyager back to Starfleet Headquarters for Janeway's courtmartial...hmmm...she definately can't outrun that ship...

Sorry, I just had to throw that in there. Seriously, I'd love to see another new Starfleet design. What's the most recent new design we've seen? Is it still the Prommie? Nope. Raven. I guess you could count the Relativity in there too.

Well, the Nova was seen more recently, but I suppose technically it's an earlier design. As is the Raven. . .

This should actually be in the Voyager forum.

Yes, a new starfleet vessel would be mighty be sweet, but it also would be nice to give some ships a real design (i.e. Chimeara anyone?)

I'd imagine that the Art Department doesn't even remember there is a Chimera-class. Not that I can blame them of course, but they're probably not all into the whole 'obscure-reference' thing.

Well, if Okuda is still working on stuff, I'd imagine he is aware of the fan-obscession with starship design. If the writers call for a new ship that doesn't have to be "top of the line" then he may consciously make it one of the known classes. Though, the fact that it is that class may not come out in the episode. We may have to wait for some behind the scenes interview to find out what class it is. I am still flaburgasted by the fact that the Raven, Centaur, and FC Scoutship were never given offical classes. What the Hell were they thinking...?
