    I like it! It looks very much like how I'd imagine an Apollo-class would look. Good job! :)

    Named after the Apollo astronauts? Grissom, Shepard, Armstrong, Aldrin or the Lovell?

    I like the sound of an USS Schweickart

    Excuse my ignorance, any particular reason for the square saucer? Seems a bit odd seeing a ship like this :D I really like the last design though. That spine is really nice.

    Digging the design. Not sure if I like the pylons on the spine better than the main hull, but it's s fun idea nonetheless. Are those bussards actual scoops? Looks like it anyway, and I like that a lot!

    Atolm did you put dual turbolifts in port and starboard positions on this beauty?

    Cool! Glad we thought similar things :)

    Aye Bro. Thant's why I opted her :)

    Thanks!

    I wanted to have a ship of the fleet that was not derivative of the Connie. Everything the Connie is, the Apollo is not. It was not the most graceful vessel, but it was a prototype that became a workhorse in later years.

    Thanks!

    Thanks Bro! I opted the spine mounted as I did not want the ship to be so wide. Angling them from there kept the ship thinner in top/bottom views and made it long-looking like a rocket.

    Thanks! I think she shaped up okay :)

    Thanks!

    Yeap. ;)

    Indeed she turned out awesome, sturdy looking ship, reminds me a little of the Sidney class but more elegant.:mallory:
