History

作为一艘载船员达200人的无畏级星舰,航海家号U.S.S. Voyager NCC-74656是星际舰队中最快而有力的星舰之一,虽然它只有345米长,差不多是银河级的一半,但比舰队以往任何星舰都要先进。除了装备琳琅满目的的探索与研究设备之外,航海家号还具有一系列的防御与攻击性武器,使它能随时投入战斗。

航海家号是星际舰队现有四艘无畏级星舰中的第二艘,于公元2371年(星历48038.5)启航。

航海家号的可折叠式曲速引擎翼能沟让它越过曲速五级的限制,而不会破坏宇宙空间的连续性。曲速最高能够达到9.975,但只能维持短时间。

它的EPS系统和後备系统作了修改以采用Enaran的能源储备技术,一些甲板上的继电保护则是应用了伯格人的科技。

四年後航海家号借由Hirogen人的通讯网络和星舰总部取得联系,2377年在经历七年孤独、艰苦的旅程後,航海家号终于回到地球,并带回沿途可观的外星文明、科技、星域图等资料,舰长(Kathryn Janeway)升为将军,航海家号本身也改为博物馆。

The USS Voyager was constucted at the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards orbiting Mars and was launched from Earth Station McKinley on stardate 48038.5 in 2371. Voyager was the first ship equipped with a class 9 warp drive. The ship later docked at Deep Space 9 to begin its first mission. The mission was to track down a Maquis ship in the Badlands under the command of former Starfleet officer Chakotay. The mission was only meant to last a few weeks.

In the Badlands, both the Maquis ship and Voyager were hit by a displacement wave created by the Caretaker entity, by which both ships were thrown 75,000 lightyears from their original location to the outer edge of the Delta Quadrant.


The Federation starship Voyager was launched in the year 2371 under the command of Captain Kathryn Janeway. It's first mission was to track down a Maquis ship in the Badlands. Upon arriving in the Badlands, Voyager was suddenly pulled 70,000 light years across the galaxy to the unchartered Delta Quadrant ("Caretaker"). Most of Voyager's senior staff were killed when they were pulled into the Delta Quadrant by the Caretaker. The Maquis ship Voyager was after was also pulled to their location. Captain Janeway destroyed the Caretaker's array, which was their only way of getting home. From there they started out on their 75-year trip home.

Janeway asked the crew of the Maquis ship to come aboard, including their leader, Chakotay, whom Janeway asks to become her new first officer.

Propulsion

The starship Voyager was designed to be the fastest ship in Starfleet. It's "swing-and-fold" warp nacelles allowed the ship to have a sustainable warp speed of 9.975, just below the transwarp barrier. It was driven by a class nine warp core, which could easily be ejected to prevent a warp core breach ("The Gift").

Voyager tried to adapt its warp core to travel in a Quantum Slipstream, which would have allowed the ship to travel several light years in just minutes. The ship couldn't handle the stress of the Slipstream so it was abandoned.

In addition to warp travel, Voyager has standard impulse engines found on most Starfleet vessels.

Armaments

Voyager was designed for combat performance. Therefore, it had top-of-the-line weapons at its disposal. Voyager had 11 phaser strips, 4 torpedo launchers, and a forward weapon port, which could be configured to fire a phaser beam or other weapons. Voyager carried type-6 photon torpedoes, newly introduced at the time of its launch ("Dreadnought"). Voyager was also armed with tri-cobalt devices at the time of its launch, which were used to destroy the Caretaker's array.

Ship Systems

The starship Voyager's systems were partially controlled by bioneural gel packs, which speeded up the response time. Because they couldn't get replacement gel packs, Voyager began to use other types such as the old isolinear control chips.

Voyager was powered by a combination of deuterium and dilithium. Deuterium was used for its engines and then the waste was recycled to produce power.

Shuttles

Voyager's shuttle bay was located on deck 10, at the stern of the ship. It was never stated how many shuttles Voyager carried, but it was at least 2 at the time of its launch, which had to be replaced on many occassions. In the year 2374, Voyager designed and built a new type of shuttlecraft called the Delta Flyer. Although never seen in use, Voyager also had a aeroshuttle located on the underside of the saucer section. This shuttle is similar to the Captain's Yacht located on most Starfleet vessels.

Food

Since Voyager was stranded without a guaranteed power source, replicator use was rationed to each crewmember. Neelix also converted the mess hall into a galley so he could prepare meals for the entire crew using real ingredients either grown onboard or gathered from away missions. The mess hall is located on deck 2, just above the captain's quarters.

Sickbay

Sickbay only had a total of 4 biobeds, but had the most up-to-date diagnostic systems. Voyager's sickbay had a surgical bay, which had one biobed. The surgical bay had advanced sensors to allow for a more detailed diagnosis. Its design also allowed for physicians to move all around the bed with easy. The surgical bay's biobed also had a diagnostic arm which could be closed for even more detailed scans.

Off of the main compartment of sickbay was the office. Next to the office was a biolab with advanced computer systems.

On its maiden voyage, the starship Voyager's Chief Medical Officer and all of the medical staff were killed. Voyager's brand-new Emergency Medical Hologram (EMH) immediately took over responsibilites as the only medical officer onboard. The EMH trained Kes to become his nurse. After Kes left Voyager, Lieutenant Tom Paris assumed role as the ship's 'nurse'.

Engineering

Voyager's engineering compartment was located on deck 11. It had 2 levels to it. Because of Voyager's advanced systems, Engineering had several command stations which could control everything onboard and take over bridge functions.

The Bridge

The bridge module was much larger than most Federation starship. It had 10 different command stations, including two Engineering stations and two Mission Ops stations. The helm was located at the front of the bridge, and was the only forward command station. Tactical and Operations aligned the back corners of the bridge, separated by the Science and Mission Ops stations. On each side of the bridge lies the Engineering stations. An additional control station is located on the railing behind the command chairs.

Voyager's bridge had 2 command chairs, separated by a computer terminal where the captain and first officer could control and monitor several ships system. Next to each command chair was one additional seat for guests.

Next to Tactical lies the main turbolift. On the other side of Tactical is the door to the captain's ready room. On the other side of the bridge, next to Operations, is a small corridor which leads to another turbolift and a Jefferies tube. On the other side of Operations is the door to the briefing room.

Hand phasers were stowed in various locations on the bridge in the case of the ship being boarded by intruders. Such locations included behind the command chairs and beneath key command stations such as Tactical and Operations.

In the Delta Quadrant

Severely damaged and at too great a distance to contact Starfleet in the Alpha Quadrant, the entire surviving crew of the Maquis raider was transfered to the USS Voyager to embark on the journey home. After having heavy casulties in several key positions aboard Voyager, these positions were filled by their adopted Maquis crew. The chief medical officer was permanently replaced by the EMH, which was originally designed for brief periods of operation only.

On the first few days in the Delta Quadrant, Voyager encountered 3 new species including the Talaxians, Ocampa and Kazon-Ogla. A Talaxian named Neelix and an Ocampa named Kes became crewmembers on Voyager after the Caretaker died.

Starfleet presumed the Voyager to be destroyed in the Badlands until 2374, when the ship's EMH was transmitted to the Federation starship USS Prometheus using a Hirogen relay station. The ship, at the time, had been taken over by Romulans. The Doctor, with assistance by an EMH Mark II, returned the ship to Starfleet.

After the EMH reported of the Voyager 's fate, Starfleet's Communications Research Center set up the Pathfinder Project to find a way to bring back or maintain constant contact with the ship. This project was under the command of Cmdr. Peter Harkins and was supervised by Admiral Owen Paris. However, the driving force behind the ambitious task to reestablish communications with Voyager was Lieutenant Reginald Barclay.

In early 2376, first contact between Starfleet Command and the Voyager was finally established over the MIDAS array using an artificial microwormhole. Although the periods of data transfer were very limited, Starfleet was not only able to transmit tactical updates to the Voyager crew, but also enabled private conversations between Voyagers crewmembers and their relatives in the Alpha Quadrant.

In 2377, Voyager recovered pieces of the UESPA long-range probe Friendship One. The following year, Voyager was able to return to Earth with the assistance of an alternate timeline version of Captain Janeway. This Admiral Janeway, who time traveled from the early 25th century, provided her younger counterpart with sophisticated anti-Borg technology, which included transphasic torpedoes and ablative armor generator technology, in order for Voyager to enjoy safe passage through a Borg Transwarp hub. When Voyager reached the hub through guidance by Admiral Janeway she ordered the crew to enter but Captain Janeway was reluctant to allow the opportunity to cripple the borg's infrastructure considerably to go to waste. After figuring out a way to destroy the hub, Voyager proceeded into one of the apertures while the Admiral infiltrated the Borg Queen's hive, for which she was assimilated. However, Admiral Janeway had previously injected herself with a small doasage of a neurolytic pathogen. The assimilation prompted the release of the neurolytic pathogen in the Collective via the Borg Queen. This weakened the shielding for the interspatial manifolds located in subspace and Voyager destroyed one hub with 3 transphasic torpedoes which resulted in a cascading shockwave reaction. While trying to outrun the shockwave, a Borg Sphere pursued Voyager and attempted to capture it. Upon exiting the transwarp conduit in the Alpha Quadrant, Voyager (now captured) launched a single transphasic torpedo destroying the sphere. Thus the conduit, the entire Borg transwarp network and Unimatrix 001 was destroyed. A fleet of starships, assembled in response to sensor readings indicating a Borg energy signature, greeted Voyager as she exited the conduit and escorted her home.

In total Voyager spent seven years in the Delta Quadrant before returning to Federation space. The original estimate of the time needed for the return trip had been 75 years but intervention by numerous alien races, spatial anomalies, and the acquisition of new technologies considerably shortened the starship's stay in the Delta Quadrant. During the course of its time spent in the Delta Quadrant Voyager made first contact with over 20 species, repeatedly engaged the Borg and numerous other hostile species, suffered the loss of several crew members, and greatly expanded the Federation's knowledge of the galaxy.
