SOURCES |
Here you'll find a listing of
the most popular sources that we used when creating our
starship specs. With the exception of the Starship Spotter,
all of the books and magazines listed are official sources
for Star Trek material, while the rest are merely places
where true and factual information can be obtained, but they
are no means an official source in their own right. Those
interested in learning more about Star Trek, and not just
the technology, will find a handy link to Amazon.com, with a
portion of the profits from your purchase going to help fund
ACTD.

evacuated and were replaced by Starfleet personnel. With the
discovery of a nearby stable wormhole connecting the Alpha
Quadrant with the Gamma Quadrant, the newly christened Space

Star Trek: Starship Spotter -
Buy @ Amazon
by Adam "Mojo" Lebowitz and
Robert Bonchune
Starship Spotter was
created more than two centuries ago to serve as a reference
guide to assorted space-going vessels. Captains of the
spaceships of the United Earth Space Probe Agency used this
simple paper tool to enable a ship's crew to quickly
distinguish friend from foe in the unexplored reaches of the
cosmos. When the services were merged to form Starfleet,
this paper book disappeared from use. Only recently
rediscovered, the newest editions of this book have been the
sole purview of Starfleet Academy. |
