#space freighter

Galactic transit.

Originally completed 31st July 2024.

My interpretation: In the far future, humanity has expanded beyond our solar system and now spans the galaxy. But galactic civilizations need to transport, trade, and organise people and materials. At this mixed space port, passenger, freight, and commercial spaceships can be docked. It is an important hub in this system and is often frequented by massive star cruise ships that transport tourists and workers from star to star. On this occasion, a scientific exploration vessel is approaching the port attempting to seek a birth so its tired crew may find some rest and relaxation at the port before heading back out on another expedition.

Crusader Industries C2 Hercules Starlifter

A common type of freighter from Star Trek: The Next Generation. The same model was used for the Sanction in "Symbiosis," the Erstwhile in "The Outrageous Okona," and the Arcos in "Legacy" (and in different configurations it portrayed additional ships in further episodes). The physical model was created by Greg Jein and Bruce MacRae, and a computer-generated model was created by Douglas E. Graves to replace missing footage when the latter two episodes were remastered. That digital model probably formed the basis for these images credited to Fabio Passaro from Eaglemoss' Official Starships Collection.
