Summary

  • The 'boomer ship' period is considered to have ended in the 2140s.[1]
  • The Messier design philosophy was recognized as a dead end.[2]
  • The Earth authorities recognize that a formidable (and unidentified) enemy was stalking transports and lone patrol vessels, and that a military confrontation was a distinct possibility.[3]
  • Earth’s escalation program was fully geared towards reaching what politicians called “escape velocity”. A policy was established whereby Earth had to have a presentable force of deep space cruisers, meeting the levels the Vulcans had attained in terms of speed, range, protection and firepower, which would allow Earth to pursue an independent foreign policy.[4]
