[QUOTE]Originally posted by Jason Abbadon: [QB] [QUOTE]Originally posted by Mark Nguyen: [qb] Jason: Really? Perhaps this is sort of a tangent, but I was always under the impression that Voyager, being a "utility" starship, only had along as much crew as she needed for the short-term mission of tracking down a Maquis cell. As this was her first mission, she probably hadn't taken on a full regular crew yet. This would include a bunch of scientists (rarely seen anyway given Janeway's annoying scientist roots) or even a full medical staff (ONE doctor and ONE nurse? Come on!). Given Dan's calculations, I'd be comfortable with the notion that an Intrepid's full regular complement were closer to 200. Mark [/qb][/QUOTE]I agree that Voyager probably was not fully crewed on it's maiden mission but for a ship that large even a crew of 200 seems sparce: at three shifts (with some crew on days off) the ship is run by only 50-70 people? Small wonder losers like the Kazon and Hirogen could steal the ship with impunity. ;) Although the Intrepid class is from the oh-so-automated -future, it's still far larger (internally) than the Connie was.
