In terms of sleeping arrangements, those traveling alone in the lower classes will sleep in bunk rooms and share common rooms. Those traveling alone
in the middle classes will have roommates and share a common room with their roommates. People traveling alone in the upper classes will usually have
their own room and their own common room.
It's worth noting that the specific details of the accommodations, including the number of rooms and their amenities, depending on the design of the
ship and the resources available for construction. However, these classes provide a useful framework for thinking about the different levels of
comfort and luxury available to passengers on a ship.
The crew and their families will have a separate sleeping area from the civilians. The rank and status of different crew members will determine their
class of accommodation.
Flag officers and ship commanders will be in Class 1 accommodations. Other bridge employees, including security guards at the bridge and at the
bridge's deck station, will be in Class 2 accommodations.
Low-ranking officers and warrant officers will be in Class 3 accommodations, while enlisted personnel will be in Classes 4 through 7, with the
lowest-ranking personnel in Class 7. This seems like a logical way to organize accommodations based on the rank and responsibilities of different crew
members.
Class 1 and Class 2 accommodations will have guest quarters available for visitors, with VIPs having access to Class 1 and guests of officers having
Class 2 quarters. The number and amenities of these guest quarters will likely vary based on the size of the ship and the resources available for
construction.
Passengers and crew members are able to use the amenities of the two adjacent classes, except for classes 1 and 7, which only have one adjacent class
to use. Class 6 and 7 amenities are the same.
Enlisted personnel are not allowed to use civilian amenities while in uniform except on designated occasions.
Engines:
The ship will have three types of engines: pulse, standard, and warp.
The pulse engine would be used for fine maneuvers, such as docking or avoiding space debris. This engine would provide precise and controlled
movements for the ship.
The standard engine would be used for regular cruising speed. This engine would provide enough power to maintain a consistent speed while the ship is
traveling through space.
The warp drive would be used for faster-than-light travel. This engine would bend space and time, allowing the ship to travel vast distances in a
relatively short amount of time.
The design and capabilities of each engine would depend on the specific technology available at the time the ship is constructed, as well as the size
and purpose of the ship itself.
Core Elements:
For the engines, there will be three core elements on a colony ship: one primary core element and two smaller core elements for the pulse and standard
engines. The primary core element will provide additional power to the smaller core elements when needed and also serve as a backup power source in
case of emergencies.
