[QUOTE]Originally posted by Joshua Bell: [QB] Re: Yeager - official or not? There is no debate that the ship we refer to as "Yeager" exists; the question is - is the label "Yeager" official, or is the ship instead a Intrepid-class variant? IMHO, while an Intrepid-variant makes sense, "Yeager" seems about as official as the other class names we only know from sources like the TM, Magazine, or the Wolf 359 research. Also, there's the whole Miranda/Soyuz thing which indicates that class distinctions can be fairly arbitrary. I'd be happy to have both Soyuz and Yeager be sub-classes; when Data calls the Bozeman a Soyuz-class ship he's assuming that everyone knows its a Miranda-class ship; the remarkable thing is that the Soyuz "class" has been out of service for a century. ... The episode wasn't a total waste as far as us geeks are concerned - we now know how the TransWarp Conduits introduced in "Descent" [TNG] work. In that episode the Enterprise detects and copies a subspace signal to open and use a conduit; until "Endgame" [VOY] we didn't know where the signal went, where the conduits came from, how widespread they were, whether they were artificial or natural. Rather surprising - most episodes - especially a series finale, and extra-especially Voyager - raise more tech questions than answers. [/QB][/QUOTE]
