The ship's motto, as engraved on its dedication plaque, is a quote from the poem "Locksley Hall" by Alfred, Lord Tennyson: "For I dipt in to the future, far as human eye could see; Saw the vision of the world, and all the wonder that would be.
[5][6] In addition to its namesake television show, the spacecraft appeared in the computer game Star Trek: Voyager Elite Force (2000).
[7] The spacecraft design was also used for Star Trek: The Experience, a theme park in Las Vegas from 1998 to 2008, and as album art.
By the spring of 1994, the design had started to mature, and was smaller than The Next Generation's Enterprise-D with features like the ability to land on a planet's surface.
Captain Janeway orders the destruction of the device that could transport Voyager and the Maquis vessel home, thereby protecting the Ocampa.
[17] Starfleet Command eventually becomes aware of the ship's presence in the Delta Quadrant and is later able to establish regular communication.
[2] In the Star Trek: Lower Decks season 4 premiere "Twovix," Voyager is being converted into a museum when a dormant marcovirus wreaks havoc on the ship.
Voyager is seen briefly in the Star Trek: Picard third-season episode "The Bounty", now decommissioned and part of Starfleet's Fleet Museum.
[23] In the final episode, an alternate future Kathryn Janeway equipped the ship with transphasic torpedoes and ablative hull armor.
Several pieces of technology from the future were also installed in the final episode, courtesy of Admiral Janeway who went back in time to bring Voyager home.
[2] Some of the adaptive solutions are to compensate for the disadvantages of being 70,000 light-years (4.4×109 AU) from port, such as the airponics bay and the transformation of the Captain's dining room to a galley, and the acquisition of enhancements from aliens in the Void that massively increases replicator efficiency.
[27] The Delta Flyer was introduced in the Season 5 episode "Extreme Risk", and was designed and constructed by the crew in the context of the show.
[28] The Delta Flyer was designed by illustrator Rich Sternbach, and exterior views were rendered by computer graphics by Foundation Imaging.
[29] One of Voyager's shuttles, the Aeroshuttle, was integrated with the hull in the saucer section and although it was never used in an episode, the production team did develop special effects test footage of it disembarking.
[30] Voyager's Aeroshuttle was intended as a warp-capable vessel that could also fly in atmospheres; the footage was made by CGI team leaders Rob Bonchune and Adam Lebowitz, along with the VFX producer Dan Curry.
[30] In addition to its namesake television show, the spacecraft appeared in the computer game Star Trek: Voyager Elite Force (2000).
[42] The ship's design and sets were also used in the Star Trek: Deep Space Nine episode "Inter Arma Enim Silent Leges", this time as the Intrepid Class USS Bellerophon,.
