    I mean, starfleet’s main objective is supposedly exploration, makes sense that their flagship would be doing that

      @Damage @startrek I would think one would avoid sending one’s most powerful ship to explore — it’s rather threatening diplomatically, and it also means one’s defence of home space is weakened. It makes more sense to me to send smaller, more nimble, less threatening (and less valuable) ships into the unknown.

        Eh, you need to be prepared for anything when you explore the unknown far away from your support network.
