I am forever of the opinion that Janeway kept letting shuttles explode just to keep the crew occupied between crises building new ones; so they wouldn’t have time to worry about the long journey home.
A colleague of mine worked on Voyager (and DS9), and as he explained to me, the captain’s yacht was actually modeled in 3D for Voyager. There was an animation test done of its launch for potential use in a future episode, but it was done around the time Insurrection was being made. Insurrection had its captain’s yacht sequence, so the powers that be (I believe it was Berman himself, but don’t quote me) put the kibosh on Voyager using its captain’s yacht, because it would “undermine” the Insurrection scene.
I only just watched all your voyager videos last week... so great to see you making another after the hiatus! Wonderful! Also... two thumbs up for ORCHESTRAL MANEUVRES IN THE DARK background music. LOVE IT ❤️
Two nights ago I had a dream that I found the Voyager filming model in a warehouse. They let me have it. So I guess that means legally it's mine now. Also it's made out of styrofoam. Dreams don't lie.
Last night, I had a dream that you did a 'Games That Time Forgot 2' video. Dreams don't lie. Thanks for all the great content over the years, by the way!
They were able to replicate the lost shuttle craft. However, the cost of doing so meant they didn't have the resources (computer bandwidth + antimatter generated energy) to replicate a lot of other things such as food. Hence, the necessity of Neelix's cooking.
Regarding the shuttlecraft: You DO remember that the series has replicators, right? I have no problem believing that the Shuttlecraft used on most ships are assembled basically out of kits. And yes, Voyager was low on replicator power, which would have meant that replicator power would be rationed based on necessity. Which would mean things like EPS conduits, injectors, hull plating and, you guessed it, Shuttlecraft replacements would be at the top of that list, as would Medical supplies. It's a TINY bit weird that Food isn't first and foremost, but that's likely more to do with the fact that it's easier to find food in a quadrant with plenty of civilized people than it is to find, you know... Federation components.
I'm feeling so spoiled with all this great content, Junkball! Be sure to take the time you need but I think we all appreciate how much work you've put in and has come out recently!
I love your videos Junkball! Your quirky sense of humour syncs up so fantastically well with our somewhat embarrassing interest / obsession with all of these ship designs. Also your music choice, again for the quirkiness, is fantastically on point :D
I think its alluded to that Voyager left with a certain number of shuttles, then kept rebuilding them as they needed. They hint to that in the episode where they build the first Delta flyer.
Yep, if they can design and build the delta flyer, and then redesign and build a replacement, I'm sure they can handle the cookie cutter shuttle designs
Nice video, thanks for bringing back this series of videos. I love the detail (and different types of detail, model design/type/heritage, etc) that you go into. Good work, can't wait for the next ship you cover.
I love all of your videos-- your voice has really nice cadence, and your videos are edited and researched well; It really makes being a Trekkie enjoyable.
The Bird of Prey has been on my to do list for years. I actually started some video notes back in 2014 when I did the Star Trek IV video. Eventually, I'd like to do something on the Klingons.
I always thought Voyager was a small ship, based from its crew complement - but shocked me seeing she was Connie sized! Like the show itself, took a awhile to appreciate the plucky ship! Great breakdown! Can't wait to see more!
I used to dislike Voyager's design but it's really grown on me over the years. I still think the nacelles are disproportionately short and would look much better with something closer to the Equinox or Enterprise-E, but that's my only real gripe at this point.
More entertaining Trek trivia. To me Voyager's saucer section looked like a giant ironing board cut in half. I liked the way her warp nacelles tilted just before she jumped to warp speed, as shown in the title sequence. I thought she was a sleeker, more attractive starship than the Enterprise D, but the ultimate starship for me was the Enterprise E, a majestic looking vessel.
Good work, again. The yacht, or “Aerowing” was designed inside and out, with cgi of it findable on RUclips. Personally, having heard the rumor that the Voyager could land on a planet, I had assumed the shape was a landing gear foot. That didnt make much sense, but neither did the legs they eventually used. I would have loved it if, during the discussion of building the Delta Flyer, there had been a few lines about the other ship being cannibalized for parts. Having them “fix” the utterly destroyed flyer was the height of laziness, and made the two episode turn around between Defiants feel like an honorable sendoff.
I always wondered: What is this square opening above the rear Torpedo tubes towards the Saucer? On My Revell Model kit, it is just a empty square, lie if something was supposed to go in there but didn't. Any Clue?
The Voyager was always my favourite ship, for how well it is designed. On the shuttle problem, apperantly they build new shuttles whenever possible, the only problem being energy reserves and some rare materials the replicator has problems with. So most shuttles did not exist when the Voyager started her journey.
I think there is an episode - I forget which one but it has a conversation between Janeway and Torres and they say they traded something (gel packs I think) for an industrial replication unit - then after that episode they never mention replicator rations, shuttle's losses or Torpedoes again. I think that was an indication that is solved their supply and production problems. & was what allowed them to make a ton of shuttles and also replenish the Torpedoes - they also mined some places for rare elements at least once and I think that helped too. But Star Trek is a bit hit and miss on how replicators work and what their limitations are - I think they sometimes add limitations to pad the story. Since TNG made the Replicators TO GOOD as conceived. It made them seem like they could replicate inorganic matter and make almost anything - where as other times they were more like matter assemblers (that would require way less energy to make objects from a supply or preexisting materials than it would to do direct energy to matter conversion). I tend to look on it as a compromise method (especially in Voyager) where they make stuff out of mostly Hydrogen atoms (modified accordingly) and certain things are tricky to model so they prefer to mine it. That would include certain rear elements and compounds. The problem with that is that there really is no technological reason in-universe why they couldn't replicate almost anything including organic molecules (i.e living ones) there is no reason why for example it wouldn't be possible to say print a horse. (so to speak) or print an horse embryo and grow it in a vat. or even materialise a whole horse from a pattern. But then you get into ethics if you create and destroy a real horse at need - why not create and destroy / store the crew too. They obviously don't want to get into the whole backing people up thing as it sort of kills drama - even though again I can't see any reason why it's not technically feasible if not in the 24th Century certainly by the 26th.
From what I know replicators are limited in how far down the peiodic table the material is, So hydrogen/oxygen is not problem, led is a bit more problematic and super heavy warp core alloys are extreamly hard to create out of nothing.
I think there are 2 warp core eject ports... because there are 2 cores in Voyager. During the series, for whichever reason, we use the one closest to the shuttle bay. Even in your video, the ejection happens from the rear. Awesome work though! Happy to see more videos from you!
The port where they eject the warp core is further back than the one you're talking about. Look at the deck layout at 6:58 , the warp core is just forward of the slope in the ventral hull. This port is just barely in view at the bottom of the shot at 4:32
Hi there! If you talked about Star Trek as whole the U.S.S. Voyager isn't the last model that should be the Enterprise E, in First Contact it was both physical model and CGI.
Actually, Voyager wasn't the last studio model made for a starship. The Enterprise E was originally made as a studio model, however, it was roughly 9 feet long and very cumbersome to film. Therefore, the CGI model replaced it in nearly every instance. The studio model can only be seen in the opening pan shot of ST: First Contact. I believe the model is still out there somewhere.
You are correct. It's been a few years since I did anything on the Enterprise E so the production timeline got mixed up in my head. Thanks for catching that.
The shuttle thing never bothered me. If they can create the Delta Flyer from scratch, then building a new standard shuttle from standard blueprints should be relatively easy.
The crew just made more shuttles with on-board fabrication facilities. There was even a line of dialogue from Lt. Torres about how she was going to go crazy if she had to build one more shuttle.
Love how the displays all show an obvious secondary warp core. Though it is never mentioned except that they only ever have one warp core. Loosing warp power was just too important to Star Trek episode structure, that having a second core to consider in the story telling would be a huge inconvenience.
Voyager is simply from the same design lineage as the Galaxy class, a refinement you could say. The Sovereign class was a radical next step forward. That's why it looks different. I frankly much prefer the Sovereign over both Galaxy and Intrepid... I'm glad with direction they went with for the Big E. Love your videos- makes my day when they arrive on my YT feed. 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
Still the best trek channel. I have raise the idea on the daystrom institute sub Reddit that trek has become a sci-fi subgenres, with Galaxy quest, the Orville, and now the first episode of black mirror season 4. Any thoughts on giving ships from other trek genre shows the treatment? Glad your making videos again.
this was well done video. It was researched beyond the highschool book report. I was very happy to not hear bioneural circuitry. Instead learning behind the scenes details. wish there was more commentary out there from the artists and producers themselves
JFQ there is a difference in opinion, and stating offense, just because you don't like his opinion or likeness to something you don't, dosent give you the right to tell him to kill himself, just for liking something.
How about an episode where you count all the Voyager shuttles. Then do a layout of Voyager as if the entire interior space is shuttle bays. Just a thought.
You don't even need such a big replicator. They have industrial replicators, which are for example also used to produce outer hull parts when something is broken there. That's common on all star ships. It would take some weeks to build a shuttle craft but at least they wouldn't have to invent it first like the Delta Flyer. The same with torpedoes. They use more than the original 32 torpedoes, because they can rebuilt them. The only problem is, that it needs time to produce the Antimatter in the small antimatter production facilities on board, so they have only 32 photon torpedoes PER BATTLE. And in the beginning, when they hadn't cartographed any area yet, they didn't knew where to refuel (to get Janeways Coffee), so they had to save energy for the important parts of the ship and couldn't replace the shooted torpedoes.
Love your stuff; take all the time you need to weave these thoughtful little musings on stuff that I can't stop musing about on long, dark drives in the endless nighttime highways of the soul. I really don't know of anyone else who wanders around in that never-never land between 'The Canon' (what it's supposed to be) and the mechanics of making a show (what it literally is) and how each affects the other... or in some cases becomes the other. This is your bailiwick, and yours alone. I will name a pie and ice cream combination after you. There is no greater honour. Well... perhaps pizza combination. Must ponder this. Have you ever thought about the ships from Space:1999? Specifically, the Eagle Transporter? Probably overstayed my welcome. I'll let myself out.
I think that the Enterprise is supposed to be a top-of-the-line cruiser, and Intrepid class ships are designated as science ship; one of the vessels that sacrifice weapons for scientific equipment, and possibly overall size to minimize influencing any environments that they might come into contact with. The Sovereign class, like the Enterprise-E, are specifically designated as assault cruisers; sacrificing space for scientific equipment for more weapons, more shields, and even a thicker, almost armored hull. In addition to this, the new Enterprise was likely expected to be the backbone of any strategy or strategies against threats to the Federation, so a more combative design was called for.

These videos are a welcome excape.
They are a good excape pod. Which is great because i have apparently some Porg in my videos and its hard to excape from them Porgs.
Need an escape pod from 2020 right about now
*excape
I hear what you did there.
He probably axes questions.
I am forever of the opinion that Janeway kept letting shuttles explode just to keep the crew occupied between crises building new ones; so they wouldn’t have time to worry about the long journey home.
A colleague of mine worked on Voyager (and DS9), and as he explained to me, the captain’s yacht was actually modeled in 3D for Voyager. There was an animation test done of its launch for potential use in a future episode, but it was done around the time Insurrection was being made. Insurrection had its captain’s yacht sequence, so the powers that be (I believe it was Berman himself, but don’t quote me) put the kibosh on Voyager using its captain’s yacht, because it would “undermine” the Insurrection scene.
A colleague of mine served on Voyager (transporter technician) and he confirmed what you said
I only just watched all your voyager videos last week... so great to see you making another after the hiatus! Wonderful! Also... two thumbs up for ORCHESTRAL MANEUVRES IN THE DARK background music. LOVE IT ❤️
Wouldn't it be great to have a Star Trek show about the engineers who design and build these ships?
Two nights ago I had a dream that I found the Voyager filming model in a warehouse. They let me have it. So I guess that means legally it's mine now. Also it's made out of styrofoam. Dreams don't lie.
Last night, I had a dream that you did a 'Games That Time Forgot 2' video.
Dreams don't lie.
Thanks for all the great content over the years, by the way!
Last night I had a dram we were all trapped in a singularity
I can't believe they auctioned all that star trek memorabilia. All that stuff like the ship models belonged in a museum!
Game Sack you just uploaded your trek video games episode and i ended up here...
@@knoriel at least the original TOS one is in a museum. It’s in the national air and space museum in Washington DC
Extremely happy to see you back. We will continue to support you.

Glad you're back!!! Your videos are fantastic!
Exscape??
What??
1978rharris Funny, I've heard a lot of people pronounce it like that lately?!
Great. Now all I hear is eXcape too. =)
*sigh* I butcher words.
Excape is what I do when I take off my batman uniform. You have to take them off before getting in the pods.
Can't unhear.
I was going to write this comment! What is an ex cape pod? THE WORD IS ESCAPE
Voyager was by far my favorite of the Star Trek shows. so new and different, not alot of the same stuff
I get so happy when I see your videos waiting in my inbox. Thank you for making such quality!
I'm feeling so spoiled with all this great content, Junkball! Be sure to take the time you need but I think we all appreciate how much work you've put in and has come out recently!
Thanks, man. I appreciate it.
I'm glad you are back. I really enjoy the style and humor of your videos.
so glad for you too have come back and so happy for this voyager supplemental.
I love your videos Junkball! Your quirky sense of humour syncs up so fantastically well with our somewhat embarrassing interest / obsession with all of these ship designs. Also your music choice, again for the quirkiness, is fantastically on point :D
Can't stop binge watching Junk Ball videos!
I love how you can’t say “escape pods”. It slays me.
its so cute
Ecksksayp
I think its alluded to that Voyager left with a certain number of shuttles, then kept rebuilding them as they needed. They hint to that in the episode where they build the first Delta flyer.
I'm with you on this. I mean, they did build the Delta Flyer in about 12 minutes... Twice.
Yep, if they can design and build the delta flyer, and then redesign and build a replacement, I'm sure they can handle the cookie cutter shuttle designs
Along with the Defiant they are my favorite Star Trek ships.
Props for using OMD as background music for some of this video!
Nice video, thanks for bringing back this series of videos. I love the detail (and different types of detail, model design/type/heritage, etc) that you go into. Good work, can't wait for the next ship you cover.
Love your videos. Love Voyager. Glad to have you back!

Thank you for posting these vids, you are very thorough.
It was a long 14 months, glad you came back. Happy New Year!
Great video! And the destruction of the Delta Flyer and other shuttle raft and "f those details?" Lol. I LOVE IT!! So true!!! Lol.
I can’t ever look at the deflector on Voyager without seeing a giant smiley face screaming, “Aww hell yeah! Space!”
Will you ever do a Retrospective on a non-Federation ship, like a Bird-Of-Prey or a D'deridex-class?
Just wondering, I love your content!
Chronoculars it seems very likely because the borg sphere retrospective
The Bird of Prey has been on my to do list for years. I actually started some video notes back in 2014 when I did the Star Trek IV video. Eventually, I'd like to do something on the Klingons.
I think the Klingon ship from Search for Spock is still my favorite. Despite or perhaps because of the pastel lighting scheme inside...
You might be interested in my upcoming Sci-Fi project: ruclips.net/video/VrXbf4Jfsj0/видео.html
Hey you don't sound so damn tired this time!
Happy new year, Junkball Media!
My fav of the Trek series. Thx for posting this.
The courage it must have taken for you to try and say “escape” over and over again
And, moreover, to fail to say it correctly even one single time! (“Excape” is like nails on a chalkboard to me…)
I always thought Voyager was a small ship, based from its crew complement - but shocked me seeing she was Connie sized! Like the show itself, took a awhile to appreciate the plucky ship! Great breakdown! Can't wait to see more!
Glad your back making videos, you make great content
Thank you for doing this awesome Reboot Video on my favorite ship from my favorite ST Series! Fantastic work!
Voyager, still at the top of my sexy starship list!
It looks like a flying spoon.
B R no it doesn’t ... oh wait dang it dose.
I used to dislike Voyager's design but it's really grown on me over the years. I still think the nacelles are disproportionately short and would look much better with something closer to the Equinox or Enterprise-E, but that's my only real gripe at this point.
@LordGroyper Not like the constitution class refit baby.
My favorite ship by far, it's just so sleek!
More entertaining Trek trivia. To me Voyager's saucer section looked like a giant ironing board cut in half. I liked the way her warp nacelles tilted just before she jumped to warp speed, as shown in the title sequence.

First video I'm watching in 2018...
... Happy New Year from Japan!
How's the future so far anything new or good?
They must have a sweatshop somewhere on Voyager, constantly building shuttle crafts like they were Soviet T-34 tanks.
Your videos help us model kit builders ALOT with your details! Thank You, Sir! Cheers!!! 🙂🙂🙂❤
YAY! Super glad you're back in the game bro!
I love your videos! I'm so happy you're making them again!
Love all your videos! You can never know to much about trek

i stand corrected
i stand corrected again
I made sure to watch the ad and not skip it. We need more good content
Good video. Have noticed many items and mire now when I watch it via hd broadcasts or dvd on upgrade. Love the intrepid class
I think there are 2 warp core eject ports... because there are 2 cores in Voyager. During the series, for whichever reason, we use the one closest to the shuttle bay.
Even in your video, the ejection happens from the rear.
Awesome work though! Happy to see more videos from you!

OMG, I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS!! DON'T EVER STOP!

Can't continue watching. Need to excape.
Yes I was gonna ax about that...
XD
They're hexagonnal
There is a test footage of captain's yacht launching from Voyager on youtube. It provides nice full shot of the vessel.
I love your content welcome back
The shuttle thing never bothered me. If they can create the Delta Flyer from scratch, then building a new standard shuttle from standard blueprints should be relatively easy.
This was my favorite ship to sculpt out of modeling clay when I was younger. Especially when it got assimilated.
I love that on the plaque it mentions Rick Berman in Star Fleet Command
I love it when the nacels go up and jumps to warp.
The crew just made more shuttles with on-board fabrication facilities. There was even a line of dialogue from Lt. Torres about how she was going to go crazy if she had to build one more shuttle.
Your vids are still awesome!
Love how the displays all show an obvious secondary warp core. Though it is never mentioned except that they only ever have one warp core.

I love the detail that you have found and go into :)
Your haitus only made this vid even better. Looking forward for the next and have a great year :)
Love it. Happy new year!
Space "Magic Fly", and O.M.D. "Electricity". Good tracks.
Still the best trek channel. I have raise the idea on the daystrom institute sub Reddit that trek has become a sci-fi subgenres, with Galaxy quest, the Orville, and now the first episode of black mirror season 4.
Any thoughts on giving ships from other trek genre shows the treatment?
Glad your making videos again.
"trek has become a sci-fi subgenre"
Star Trek may have defined the genre, but the Space Opera was already a thing.
Yesss I needed some Voyager therapy today.
this was well done video. It was researched beyond the highschool book report. I was very happy to not hear bioneural circuitry. Instead learning behind the scenes details. wish there was more commentary out there from the artists and producers themselves
Your videos are awesome thank you 😃
3:41 Is that a Breen ship tractoring an escape pod? When did that happen?
please do the defiant and discovery
Blasphemy! Do not mention that disgraceful thing here!
I think the Defiant has some nice lines to her...
JFQ there is a difference in opinion, and stating offense, just because you don't like his opinion or likeness to something you don't, dosent give you the right to tell him to kill himself, just for liking something.
How about an episode where you count all the Voyager shuttles. Then do a layout of Voyager as if the entire interior space is shuttle bays. Just a thought.
Why are the necells on a cross bar in some shots but on a V in others? Do they move? The V-shaped layout looks a LOT better in my opinion.
They have a big replicator that makes more shuttlecraft lol
Luke Beauchamp it seems like it
You don't even need such a big replicator. They have industrial replicators, which are for example also used to produce outer hull parts when something is broken there. That's common on all star ships. It would take some weeks to build a shuttle craft but at least they wouldn't have to invent it first like the Delta Flyer.

With Data's head spitting out the ships?
The shuttle bay is also the industrial replicator.
I love your content glad your making vids again!
Love the USS Voyager design. A lot smaller and sleeker shape but big on character
"F@#$ Details!" LMAO!! nice video man, really appreciated.
Love your stuff; take all the time you need to weave these thoughtful little musings on stuff that I can't stop musing about on long, dark drives in the endless nighttime highways of the soul. I really don't know of anyone else who wanders around in that never-never land between 'The Canon' (what it's supposed to be) and the mechanics of making a show (what it literally is) and how each affects the other... or in some cases becomes the other. This is your bailiwick, and yours alone. I will name a pie and ice cream combination after you. There is no greater honour.
Well... perhaps pizza combination. Must ponder this.
Have you ever thought about the ships from Space:1999? Specifically, the Eagle Transporter?
Probably overstayed my welcome. I'll let myself out.
I think that the Enterprise is supposed to be a top-of-the-line cruiser, and Intrepid class ships are designated as science ship; one of the vessels that sacrifice weapons for scientific equipment, and possibly overall size to minimize influencing any environments that they might come into contact with. The Sovereign class, like the Enterprise-E, are specifically designated as assault cruisers; sacrificing space for scientific equipment for more weapons, more shields, and even a thicker, almost armored hull. In addition to this, the new Enterprise was likely expected to be the backbone of any strategy or strategies against threats to the Federation, so a more combative design was called for.
