The Nebula Class of
Star Ship was a direct offshoot from the Galaxy Class project started in
2343. Starfleet,
after viewing the potenital that the Galaxy class project was offering decided to build a further class of ship based on the Galaxy Class ship. The specific idea that was liked by Starfleet was that a universal drive section to be built for emergency transportation. The Galaxy Class drive section was overly large and although very efficient at what it did, it was hard to rebuild. They needed a method of transporting a non warp capable saucer section and the brief was decided to build a small drive section using existing Galaxy class components that would be able to attach to a standard saucer section. |

Special Design Features: The large upper modual at the back of the

for a combat mission, another phaser array or photon torpedo launcher could
be added. For
an evacuation mission, additional personnel quarters could be built
in, etc. Much of this is only done on the Nebula-class because the modifications
can be done with little cost and structural difficulties.
