[QUOTE]Originally posted by CaptainMike: [QB] Hey, this months Star Trek Magazine gave a facelift to its starship briefing, allowing Rick Sternbach to write a TNG TM style paragraph about the construction of Voyager (kind of like if there was a VGR TM.. hm...).. Anywho, he says a lot of interesting things in the article. Intrepid-class project begins: July 2361, originally called 'Planform SV-65' Voyager speed limitations: Standard Cruising Speed: Warp 7.75 for 16 days Maximum Cruising Speed: Warp 9.25 for 2.25 days Emergency Dash Speed: Warp 9.975 for 12.65 hours Maximum achieved: Warp 9.986 during shakedown cruise Second warp core contained in secondary hull for construction in one weeks time Warp reactant mixture continuum safe: a 'fortunate by-product' of new design.. Official crew capacity: 168 Design finalized: 2367, after two intermediate designs (perhaps called 'Intrepid pathfinders' ;) BTW, the proto-Intrepid model resembles neither of the two alternate designs shown) Voyager first ship finished, warp core installation in 2370, launched 2371. The Intrepid was finished three months earlier the SD 47834.6, in 2370 (possibly in time to be "Force of Nature"'s Intrepid!). Aeroshuttle: Not finished by launch (to quote "Final outfitting of mission specific hardware was delayed.. [pending] flight testing with the U.S.S. Intrepid"). Escape Pods: 16 month lifeboat, range of .25 LY with impulse jet, fit six crew aboard. [/QB][/QUOTE]
