Description This is a shot of a Deep Space Nine-style excelsior (hint: the nacelles glow) in orbit over Utopia Planitia. The orbital dock seen here is a model I did of a station briefly glimpsed at in the Star Trek Voyager episode Relativity. I didn't have much reference material at the time, and it's hard to believe but the model is now just over 10 years old!

The Excelsior class ship is however, not entirely my own - it was originally Eric Peterson's mesh. I believe Matt Allen and Rob Willson also did some rework on it, and then I have taken it and done some re-modelling and retexturing of it (Phew!). However my modifications were light and its still a great mesh to use.

A solid shot of a rarely seen station, it actually makes a nice alternative for the mushroom spacedock!

Great shot as always!
