I personally like ALL Galaxy styled ships, apart from the "Chupa Chups" Challenger class.

The Nebula is not particularly 'pretty', but she wasn't built far that. She (yes, she) is built for duty, and is probably a very succesful design. I mean, how many variations have we seen??? Big saucer, small saucer, triangular pod, smooth pod, extra nacelles, extra nacelles on a stick: that would be around 6!

The most impressing Galaxy scene that pops to mind is the one were a Galaxy comes bursting out from the bottom of the screen, and completely obliterating some Galor junk.

The Cheyenne is also quite good looking, I actually like those marker pens.

And the New Orleans is just one great ship. That's what they should have used instead of the old Excelsiors and Mirandas.

I actually, don't think they did get converted to space stations... there is nothing similar between Jupiter Station's saucers and Ambassador Saucers... I'll have to scan the cover to the UK/Australia Voyager video that has Life Line on it... a nice clear upclose picture... it looks custom made.

Go to my site ST Infinity or you'll cause the release of another Olsen Twins movie. Do you want that on your conscience?

That first pic... Pin... that "jupiter" one... is not from the episode... it appears to be a CGI fan made pic...

I'll have to go get my scanner...

Oh, no, Andrew, both pics are from star trek fact files. I avoid posting fan-made pics. Not that many of those aren�t beautiful, but just because I try to make my site as close to "official" as possible.
