The Intrepid-class USS Voyager

The Intrepid-class is a type of starship built by the United Federation of Planets in the 24th century in Star Trek.

Technical Data

The Intrepid-class was designed to serve primarily as a long-range explorer.

Statistics

Length: 345 meters[1]
Top Speed: Warp 9.975[2]
Crew: approximately 200 normally, minimum 100[3]

The computer network of the Intrepid-class uses bioneural gel-packs --a new technology for the Federation -- to help organize information, supposedly improving response time[4]. The benefits of this technology have never been evident on screen.

Intrepid-class ships are capable of entering a planetary atmosphere and landing on the surface.

History

The most notable Intrepid-class starship is the USS Voyager, which -- while attempting to capture a Maquis ship -- was dragged into the Delta Quadrant by a powerful alien. Surprisingly, the Voyager managed to complete it's 70,000 light-year journey back to Federation territory in just seven years, a feat that required the help of more powerful aliens and the exploitation of Borg transwarp technology.
