Class variants
Class | Information | ||||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
SKIN UNLOCK: Free Starfleet's top-of-the-line vessel in the mid-24th century, the most prominent Exploration Cruiser variant is the Galaxy class, which was the flagship of the fleet when it was first introduced in the late 2350s. The most well known Galaxy-class vessel was the USS Enterprise-D, commanded by Captain Jean-Luc Picard. This is the shortest Exploration Cruiser variant, but the best known. On T5 and T6 variants, players may also select the "Galaxy Refit" nacelles, which have phaser strips on the dorsal side like on the Galaxy Dreadnought Cruiser and the first appearance of the U.S.S. Venture. | |||||
Celestial class |
SKIN UNLOCK: Free, but only available on T4 variants The design of the Celestial class has components reminiscent of the Ambassador class line of Starfleet cruisers. Distinguishing differences between the Celestial- and Ambassador-class designs are the straight pylons, conical warp nacelles and engineering hull, and the thicker saucer. | ||||
Envoy class |
SKIN UNLOCK: Free, but only available on T4 variants The Envoy variant is the longest of the three. The saucer and and neck are also the largest. The pylons are slightly banked and are forked toward the nacelle area. The ship is significantly bulkier than the other variants which feature smooth hulls. Its nacelles are less armored than the others with a field grille covering the bottom end of the nacelle. | ||||
Monarch class |
SKIN UNLOCK: Free with any T5 or T6 variant Though similar in layout to the Galaxy, the Monarch class takes on harder edges, banked nacelles, and other structural changes throughout the spaceframe, incorporating lessons learned from its older siblings' 50 years of service. It is also tied with the Venture Class for the largest variant of the Exploration Cruiser line. | ||||
Venture class |
SKIN UNLOCK: Venture Exploration Cruiser Refit, 150,000 OR Legendary Ross Command Exploration Cruiser, 30,000 Based on the Galaxy-class design, the Venture class represents the pinnacle in Starship design. It has a longer more swept neck, and a more faceted main deflector. It also bears details reminiscent of the Sovereign class, such as the raised V-shaped platform on the primary hull detail, and a whiter-colored hull with darker markings. It is also tied with the Monarch class for the largest Exploration Cruiser variant. | ||||
Andromeda class |
SKIN UNLOCK: Free with this starship OR Terran Cygnus Battlecruiser, 3,000 OR Legendary Ross Command Exploration Cruiser, 30,000 Following the success of the Pathfinder class in Operation Delta Rising, Starfleet Corps of Engineers teams at the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards began work on updates of other core ship designs in the Federation fleet. The Andromeda-class Exploration Cruiser is the first ship from this effort to be released to Starfleet captains. An update of the famed Galaxy class that was the flagship of Starfleet in the mid-24th century, the Andromeda incorporates updated technology developed to give this ship improved capabilities for the difficult challenges Starfleet faces in the months ahead. | ||||

Cygnus class |
SKIN UNLOCK: Terran Cygnus Battlecruiser, 3,000 The Cygnus is an iteration on the Andromeda, with new saucer, nacelles, pylons and hull to give the ship a more aggressive profile. It is a heavy explorer capable of long-range exploration and defense. | ||||

Ross class |
SKIN UNLOCK: Legendary Ross Command Exploration Cruiser, 30,000 The Ross-class Exploration Cruiser, commissioned in the 2380s, is a hybrid of the Galaxy and Sovereign classes' aesthetics. Designed for the 2020 Star Trek Adventures roleplaying show "Clear Skies", the U.S.S. Ross pioneers many advanced technology that will go on to become standard on Starfleet ships in the 25th century. | ||||
World Razer class |
SKIN UNLOCK: World Razer Temporal Ops Juggernaut, This alternate, dark version of the USS Enterprise-D appeared in a painting in Picard’s Chateau, the first sign that he was in a universe where something was very, very wrong. And while the techniques and weapons of the Confederation of Earth were horrifying, some of those designs nonetheless returned to our universe when Picard did. After a thorough debriefing from Starfleet Intelligence, Starfleet engineers were able to replicate some of the technology in a manner more suited to the ideals of Starfleet. |

Notes[ | ]
- The introduction of the T6 Exploration Cruiser (and its fleet counterpart) coincided with a remodeling of the Galaxy skin for Exploration Cruisers to more closely resemble the class' on-screen appearance in Star Trek: The Next Generation. Another remodel was done in January 2020, this time coinciding with the launch of the Legendary Ross Command Exploration Cruiser.
- The Andromeda-class was released as issue #3 in the Star Trek Online Starships Collection, represented by the U.S.S. Andromeda itself.
- The model was revamped in 2021 as part of Season Twenty-four: Reflections and was given access to the new Type 7A hull material type.
