	Saucer separation - Memory Alpha, the Star Trek Wiki
		Prior to the 24th century, separation was used as a means of abandoning either hull in the event of a catastrophic emergency.
		A saucer separation involving the refit Constitution-class USS Enterprise was storyboarded by Andrew Probert for a possible scene at the end of Star Trek: The Motion Picture.
		On the Galaxy-class, saucer separation was primarily designed as a way for the civilian and nonessential crew complement to escape in the saucer section, while the senior staff and essential personnel engage a threat or enter a potentially dangerous situation in the stardrive section.

	Saucer separation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the Star Trek fictional universe, saucer separation is used to describe the procedure whereby the saucer section of certain Starfleet starship types disengages from the stardrive section.
		Carrying all the non-essential personnel, the saucer section could depart the battle area; meanwhile, the stardrive section (controlled from the battle bridge, an auxiliary command centre in the stardrive section) could engage the enemy with a minimal complement.
		In extreme emergencies, protocols allow for the saucer to de-orbit and make a forced landing on a habitable planet; however, the craft is not designed for this maneuver, and is generally severely damaged and made a total loss upon completion.

	Saucer separation
		In the Star Trek fictional universe, saucer separation is the term used to describe when the saucer section on certain types of Starfleet starship disengages from the stardrive section.
		In times of battle, it was intended that the saucer section of the ship would separate from the stardrive section of the ship.
		While the Galaxy class was built with saucer separation in mind, the saucer section did not have warp drive, which made the saucer section vulnerable to enemy attack.

		Saucer separation was first placed in the Galaxy class' design as way of moving families and civilians out of harms way.
		On Galaxy class starships the saucer and star drive sections are held together by eighteen latching clamps that pass through the load baring structures of the saucer and driver sections.
		An outgrowth of saucer separation is multi-vector assault mode of the Prometheus class.

		On the Galaxy class, saucer separation was primarily designed as a way for the civilian and nonessential crew complement to escape in the saucer section, while the senior staff and essential personnel engage a threat or enter a potentially dangerous situation in the stardrive section.
		Separation can also be performed at warp speeds, although it is much safer at lower warp velocities due to the fact that the saucer is not equipped with warp drive, only impulse engines.
		This use of saucer separation was perhaps inspiration for the multi-vector assault mode of the USS Prometheus, launched in 2374.

	Primary hull - Memory Alpha
		The primary hull (also known as the saucer section or saucer module on some classes) is a major component of the overall hull structure.
		Ships capable of saucer separation were designed for this purpose in order to have the primary hull serve as a lifeboat for the crew in the event of catastrophic damage to the warp core or a loss of antimatter containment.
		Saucer sections on some starships, like the Galaxy class, are even equipped to make planetfall and landing, although not all are designed to return to space following a landing.

		In the Star Trek fictional universe, saucer separation is the term used to describe when the saucersection on certain types of Starfleet starship disengages from the stardrive section.
		While the Galaxy class was built with saucer separation in mind, the stardrive section developed a power underrun duringdevelopment and captains relied more and more upon the saucer's fusion reactors to make up the difference during the starship'searly lifespan.
		Not all Starfleet ships of this shape necessarily have saucer separation capability; separation was deleted from the follow-on Sovereign class starship early in its design cycle,as this class was designed without provisions for civilian complement, owing to lessons learned from the mistakes made in theGalaxy class.

		The Saucer Module RCS consists of four main and four auxiliary engines located on the hull edge; the two remaining main engines and ten venier thrusters make up the Battle Section RCS and are located outboard of the main deflector dish.
		SEPARATION SYSTEM OPERATION In the docked configuration, the passive apertures retain the grab plates in their fully deployed positions, and a structural locking wedge is driven into the gap between the plates.
		SIF reinforcement of the saucer framework is believed necessary to avoid exceeding saucer structural limits during atmospheric entry of a Class M planet.

		The saucer section was the least damaged part of the ship, but even there the damage was widespread.
		Most of the saucer's fusion generators were ejected to prevent a catastrophic explosion.
		The saucer was almost completely cut off from the remains of the engineering section.

		Meanwhile the highly sophisticated Intrepid class is available, which can be regarded as the Bremen-class successor with its similar size and shape of the saucer hull.
		The Bremen class, however, has the tactical advantage of a saucer separation.
		Furthermore the saucer has two warp nacelles attached to its underside which enable this part of the ship to achieve a short-term speed of Warp 8.

	Talk:Saucer separation - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		It sounds more like a washing-up problem (how to separate saucers that are stuck together in the sink by food leftovers).
		It was my understanding that nearly every ship that followed the saucer / secondary hull pattern had the ability to detach the saucer from the secondary hull in an emergency in the event of a warp drive breach.
		In the Generations novelization, Captain Sulu gives the order to seperate the saucer section of the Exelsior from the stardrive section during a warp-core breach drill.

		They are separate pieces, but don't seem to separate (I think they are epoxied together).
		Separating the graphite and clear plastic is the next step.
		Once you have the back of each piece separated about 3 millimeters, VERY CAREFULLY slide the two pieces apart using the slots that you cut from the graphite colored plastic (that is to say, move the wings through the slots that you cut).

		Some Starfleet starships such as the Galaxy class starships consist of two sections: the stardrive section, also known as the battle section, engineering section, or secondary hull, where the warp engines and Battle Bridge are located, and the saucer section, also known as the primary hull.
		About the only way to safely perform the seperation was to withdraw to a safe haven, and seperate the saucer away from the battle.
		Nearly every starship design that follows the saucer/secondary hull pattern has had some ability to seperate the saucer from the stardrive section during extreme emergencies.

		BTW, the original pencil grid lines on the upper saucer were not perfectly concentric.
		The highlight of the trip was when my friend & I held onto each side of the saucer while Ed unscrewed the bolts that held it to the dorsal.
		When Ed unscrewed the last bolt, we performed a saucer separation and "flew" the saucer to a soft landing atop a nearby plastic garbage can.

		The saucer is top and bottom halves, with the bottom fitting into the top as with the Voyager kit.
		A U-shaped part which is essentially the fairing between the top of the enginneering hull and the rear of the saucer at the shuttlebay attaches to the top of the hull assembly.
		Small parts include the clear deflector dish, a small belly detail panel with phaser strip (a sloppy fit), the stand mounting point, the aft shuttlebay doors and a small part at the aft belly which I can't identify.

	Emergency Saucer Separation
		In extreme situations, the saucer sections, the saucer section can even land on the surface of a planet.
		The warp core is located in the drive section, allowing the crew to evacuate to the saucer section and safely isolate themselves from the rest of the ship.
		As long as the saucer section safely distances itself from the explosion shockwave, it is then capable of traveling under its own engines to a nearby Starbase, and crew casualties are minimized.

		The saucer section (the saucer-shaped module which forms the "head" of the ship) could be separated before a battle in order to put civilians out of danger in a serious battle situation.
		(See saucer separation.) The most notable Galaxy class starship was the USS Enterprise-D, the flagship of the United Federation of Planets, and the primary setting of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
		The use of saucer separation was influenced by the presence of families; the saucer was designed to hold non-essential personnel and be left at a safe location while the stardrive section, containing the majority of weaponry and power, confronts the foe.

		Sternbach and Okuda suggest that such a landing would damage the saucer section beyond feasibility of repair--it is only to be used as a last resort, sort of as a "life raft".
		The TNG Enterprise, being a starship carrying families, has the ability to separate into saucer and warp drive sections in case of an emergency situation.
		When separated, the saucer section is capable of only impulse speed, while the warp drive section turns into a formidable battle machine.

	Galaxy Class saucer separation - FileFront Gaming Forums
		I know that there is a mod for BC that alllows you to separate the saucer section on the Galaxy class and fight using both sections.
		One way of making it saparate would be to make the ship the Stardrive section and then change the shuttle into the saucer section, although that would be kinda weird to see a saucer coming out of another ships......um......y'know......
		Actually there is a way to give a shuttle load outs for a galaxy saucer, but I agree its not worth it for sake of appearance when launching and not being able to have shuttles available for other ships.
