Sep 7, 2012 · RENAISSANCE CLASS STARSHIP "Conjectural designation for a type of Fereration vessel. The U.S.S. Aries, offered for Riker to command in 2365, was a Renaissance-class ship ('The Icarus Factor' [TNG]), as was the U.S.S. Hornet ('Redemption Part II' [TNG]).

Aug 31, 2008 · 4. Because Renaissance class production continued for the next eight years after 2329 (The Hokkaido was built in 2337), I speculated that the Renaissance class was in fact one of the first new vessel designs to incorporate the iso-chip technology, and therefore be a newer style of vessel than the older Excelsior and Ambassador classes.

May 10, 2012 · The TNG: Technical Manual stated that the first Autonomous Survival and Recovery Vehicle (ASRV) were installed aboard the Renaissance-class starship USS Hokkaido in 2337. Based on visual evidence, in the non-canonical Ships of the Line calendars, another Miranda-class medium cruiser, the USS Leonov, was equipped with ASRVs.

Oct 21, 2021 · The original language names/descriptions were kept and published along with the English class name. In some cases, it was just the name that Starfleet gave the ship class regardless of the meaning of the Klingon or Romulan words. In some cases, the translation to English-language was a close approximation of the original meaning.

Oct 10, 2024 · If we ignore the obvious Galaxy class nacelle, the rest of the ship fits perfectly as a pre-Ambassador class ship, similar to ships like the Cheyenne being a pre-Galaxy class ship, while looking similar to a Galaxy. With the Freedom, the saucer is similar to an Ambassador, but upon closer inspection, is entirely new and a fair bit smaller.

Jun 20, 2008 · When you're on the Enterprise, the grandest and bestest ship in the fleet, it seems to me that taking command of an Excelsior-class ship, a Nebula, or hell any other ship in the fleet is a step DOWN. Riker was second in command of a prized assignment.

Oct 2, 2008 · Me, I like the Yeager a lot. And the Elkins is conceptually interesting as well - it only needs a little more work on the nacelles. Nothing really wrong with the TOS movie style "heavy destroyer", either. And the two Excelsior/Miranda kitbashes were cool counterparts to good old Ptolemy. And the...

Mar 9, 2010 · I might even slap a class identity to that ship, something we have heard of but haven't seen - say, Renaissance class. That idea does make some sense to me, as it's the case with some of FJ's ships (his 500 series registries start with the destroyers and continue to the Hermes scouts, which then get 600 registries) and ships in some other sources.

Feb 10, 2004 · Re: the Renaissance class: Although Timo is enamored with the idea that the Centaur could be of this class, my research disagrees. The mission of the Aries in "Peak Performance" is a years-long deep space mission. I don't …

Apr 30, 2024 · Now a disclaimer, this isn't a post saying "the Galaxy Class is the best starship ever" as the original Connie is iconic and every design since has its merits, but the Galaxy was such a contraversial & radical departure from what we saw before - an 'evolution' of starship design and what came with it was an evolved Starfleet & the Federation as ...
