	Ex Astris Scientia - Challenger Class Reconstruction
		Ever since fans have begun to spread their ideas on Star Trek starships across the web, it seemed clear that the Challenger class should be some sort of Constitution refit kitbash, as suggested in a fan description from Okuda's famous slide show.
		The Challenger, according to Okuda's own statements from February 2000 is actually a ship of the Galaxy family with vertically staggered nacelles.
		One argument for the Challenger is that the secondary hull of the Excelsior study model II would have to reach up to the center of the saucer which it apparently doesn't.

		It is believed by some fans that the Apollo class is a reduced-size counterpart to the Ambassador class, similar to the relationship of the Miranda class to the Constitution class or of the Nebula class to the Galaxy class.
		The Freedom class of ship follows a highly unusual design: the primary hull is an elliptical saucer with a pylon running downward and aftward from its bottom and attaching to a single Galaxy class nacelle.
		The Soyuz class of starship is similar to the Miranda class starship.

	NX-05 Challenger Primer
		Challenger's only form of protection was a process of molecular polarization that could be called upon to strengthen the hull plating, making it more resistant to weapon fire.
		Challenger's crew used handheld communicators to keep in touch; they were easier to misplace, misuse, or damage.
		Challenger's sensor arrays could scan on about the same scope of frequencies as today's models, but the technology was far from perfect.

	SECTION31.COM - Musings on Starship Design
		In the thirty-eight years since the Starship Enterprise first flew onto our TV screens and into our hearts, starship design on the set of Star Trek, and indeed, the concept of what a starship even is, has evolved significantly.
		Several of these classes were revolutionary in their own rights: the Niagara, which is and will remain one of my favorite designs for its graceful beauty, was the first and only occurrence of a three-nacelled vessel in Star Trek history, excepting the upgraded Enterprise-D seen in TNG finale "All Good Things".
		The Intrepid class itself is a departure from the traditional ovoid saucer section, continuing the Norway type trend of the arrowhead saucer while still keeping the basic curves that defined almost all starships before it.

		A starship class is the basic design of a starship.
		In most science fiction universes, a ship's class will generally be named after its first ship, known as the class leader or pathfinder.
		Classes of starships, like their terrestrial counterpart, are used to save effort and money - it's considerably easier and cheaper to build multiple units to the same set of plans than to develop a new unique plan for every individual starship.

	Sovereign class starship (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-28)
		In the fictional universe of Star Trek, the Sovereign class of starships are the most advanced and powerful ships in Starfleet during the mid- to late2370s and the 2380s.
		A Sovereign class starship is estimated to have at least 24 decks and measure 689 meters in length, making it slightly smaller than the Galaxy class starship that preceded it, but it is somewhat more powerful, and is equipped with quantum as well as the standard photon torpedoes.
		The starship Sovereign was the pathfinder of its class and testbedfor several new technologies like enhanced deflectors and shields; it was considered a failure when it turned out that theavailiable warp cores at that time were not powerful enough to suit the huge energy needs of the ship's systems.

	USS Miranda Federation Starship Database
		By her internal volume, the Challenger would be classified as a Light Cruiser, but, due to the extreme mass of her nacelles, the same nacelles used aboard Niagara Class Heavy Frigates, the Challenger Class is classified as a Medium Cruiser.
		The internal arrangement of the saucer is similar to that of the older New Orleans Class, though new vessels are equipped with such advanced technologies as bio-neural gel packs, second generation holodecks and deck-by-deck holoemiiters for emergency holographic crewpersons.
		The Challenger Class is part of the Galaxy Development Project Family, as it is known by most ASDB engineers, which includes the Galaxy, Nebula, Niagara, New Orleans, Freedom, Springfield, and Cheyenne Classes.

	Ex Astris Scientia - Starship Class Inconsistencies
		In TOS the only Federation starship class seems to be the omnipresent Constitution or "Starship class".
		One more class that should be included into these considerations is the Constellation, since the saucer top and bottom and the nacelles are very similar.
		It is unlikely that there are on one hand dozens of different starship classes at a time, and on the other hand one of them survives several generations of other designs.

		Ships of this class were multi-role, but generally used for exploration and diplomacy; however, they were quite capable in combat against ships of most enemy powers of their time, with an armament consisting of six photon torpedo launchers (four fore, two aft) and three dual-turret phaser banks.
		It is unknown if the refitted Constitution class is still in service in the 2370s; however, it is likely, considering the continued active service of the Excelsior and Miranda classes, both from the same era.
		There is a variant of the class known to be in use, that of a saucer with a normally attached neck from the bottom of which two nacelles are supported by pylons.

	Constitution class - Memory Alpha, the Star Trek Wiki
		The Constitution-class starships, which were also known as Starship class starships, were the premier front-line Starfleet vessels in the latter half of the 23rd century.
		Though not an aerodynamic craft, in emergencies, Constitution-class vessels were able to break orbit and enter a Class M planet's upper atmosphere (and maintain attitude control while passing through it) for a limited period of time, conditional on the ship's ability to re-achieve escape velocity.
		Following the 2271 refit of the class, the Constitution was equipped with a linear dilithium-controlled MARA (Matter/Antimatter Reactor Assembly), and a pulse dilithium-controlled assembly was installed in 2285 aboard the USS Enterprise.

	Challenger Deck Descriptions
		Due to its role as an exploration vessel as well as a combat one, the Challenger was built with the capability to fill in for a civilian scientific research ship.
		Due to the dangers of explosive decompression and loss of breathable atmosphere from combat hull damage, all air can be pumped into compression tanks in main life support after all crew are able to change into their spacesuits.
		Due to the limited space aboard the Challenger, the gym is equipped with a field generator to change the shape to anything from Racquetball to Vrusk K'lab'ak.

	ACTD - Advanced Starship Design Bureau \| Galaxy-class Specs
		Even though the Galaxy Class is a relatively young class of Starship, Starfleet and the Advanced Starship Design Bureau were forced to devise three variants on the Galaxy space frame.
		Allocation of the larger Danube-class runabout to starships in the field proved too costly, and with the expressed need by the Sovereign-class development team for a capable shuttle, the Type-11 was born.
		This breaks down to the density of the H Class evacuees being much higher than that of the N Class or M Class, and thus also reduces the amount of space available for any other evacuee groups because the N Class is taking up space that it doesn't use but cannot transfer elsewhere.
