The Galaxy Class starships were designed to be a multi-role vessel capable of carrying out scientific research, colony transport, diplomatic missions, long range exploration and defence roles.
The first Federation Starship to be fitted with a class five warp drive capable of sustained speeds of warp 9.2 with a maximum velocity of warp 9.6 for short periods.
The Galaxy Class project was intended to replace the Ambassador and Oberth class vessels and have an in-service life of 100 years.
A total of 10 Galaxy Class ships were constructed at Utopia Planitia shipyards with the third of its class christened the USS Enterprise NCC-1701-D and would serve as Federation Flagship for the seven years it was in service.
The Galaxy Class played a pivotal role during the Dominion War of 2373 - 2375 especially during two Battles of Chintaka and during the final assault into the Cardassian System.
Despite having a 100 year service life very few examples survived into the 2400’s with the restored Enterprise D currently on display in the fleet museum at Athan Prime along with two previous Enterprise starships.
The original project was something anybody could play, and as far as I know if you can find it you can still play it today, and you will be able to forever.
You can't do that with TRA/OTOY now can you?
streaming-exclusivity is an extremely bad thing.
As for the minecraft stuff, trekcraft exists today, and they have like 4 different iterations of the Enterprise D, with the latest version using a mod to add more detailed blocks and still being worked on today, all the way back to the original.
You know I just love it when people create a homage to something they love.
I made the Encanto house in mc on top of that dragon ball tower, Kami's lookout.
Just thinking about it makes me all giddy again!
