[QUOTE]Originally posted by MinutiaeMan: [QB] All of the Excelsior- and Miranda-class ships that we've seen in the TNG/DS9 era have had newer registry numbers. Most have been in the NCC-31xxx range for the Miranda, and the NCC-42xxx range for the Excelsior. By most estimates that's around 2325 or 2330. Ships are known to remain in service for 50 years or even more. Heck, the USN's USS Constitution is more than 200 years old! (Granted, it's not REALLY an active vessel anymore, but it's certainly seaworthy.) So it's not a stretch for some of the newer Excelsior-class ships to still be in service in the DS9 years. IIRC, the USS Ronald Reagan (which was launched last week) has a lifetime of 50 years or so. The USS Nimitz is pushing 40 or 45 years as well, I believe. [/QB][/QUOTE]
