This is an update and completed animation of Enterprise USS Voyager, which will cover decks 1-15. There are many changes made including a more detailed and texture 3D model of Voyager by Alex Kleem. It will be the most comprehensive and detailed animation to date of the 24th century Federation Intrepid-class starship operated by Starfleet.
The USS Voyager was a Federation Intrepid-class starship operated by Starfleet during the 24 century. It was the eleventh Federation ship to bear the name Voyager with this registry.
Although only 345 meters long, about roughly half the size of the U.S.S. Enterprise -D, Voyager is more technologically advanced than previous Starfleet vessels.
The 15-deck (257 rooms), 700,000-metric-ton Voyager was originally built at the Utopia Planitia Fleet Yards and launched from Earth Station McKinley.
The vessel was capable of holding 150 crew members and up to 350 people in a short period of time. Superbly equipped for exploration and research, Voyager has an equally impressive array of defensive and offensive weapons, making it ready for action.

Imagine walking on these decks, room by room, even if it's only a full scale mockup.

[@andiholman2543]

Things I learned from this video. Cpts quarters are the big set of windows pointing fore. Mess hall is the small set of windows above it. Not sure why but always imagined it to be the reverse. Sets of recessed windows in engineering hull are just offices. Always imagined them to be engineers quarters. Cargo bays are huge. Knew they’d have to be large but never imagined they’d take up such a sizeable portion of primary hull. Unused Aerowing footage. Okay, now my mind is blown as I’d never seen that before. That’s just too cool for words… Still cannot believe the captains quarters are larger than the space given to the main mess hall used by the whole ship. I’d move them and place them directly behind the ready room with an adjoining door between the two. The rear observation lounge seems a little superfluous given that it’s so far away and not reachable directly by turbo lift. Id turn it into an intimate bar/restaurant. The kind that comes with a waiting list.

[@WozWozEre]

There was an episode where Janeway went down to the absolute lowest decks and didn't know her way around, having to ask a crewmember for directions. Always thought that gave a good idea of just how large these ships are internally.

[@viciousyeen6644]

You can actually see the long thin corridor she walks through in this vid at the end

[@WozWozEre]

@@GFYS928 thanks!

[@DrewLSsix]

@@WoodysAR not true actually, Kirk had to ask directions on the refit, and the D was large enough anyone could get turned around, its almost as if they used the same 3 or 4 sections of corridor set for every part of the ship! As for Archer, we'll the NX was tiny and he literally helped build it, but don't worry, theres plenty of other flaws to abuse Archer over.

[@vast634]

The captain of a modern carrier will also not know every last small corridor of the ship, as he is not there to be a tour guide.

[@TheJustUsLeague]

That crewmember from the episode "Good Shepherd" was Tom Morello from the band RAGE AGAINST THE MACHINE.

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

It's sad that we never got to see the Aerowing Shuttle used on Voyager it's pretty awesome looking being the size of s Danube Class Runabout.

[@morganb6717]

i was always aware that Voyager was not a small ship, but i never had a very strong grasp of its interior space; this video has been an incredible help in that regard.

[@possibly_a_retard]

Yeah, Voyager was a legit proper ship. Would love to see the Nova class for comparison (remember the episode 'Equinox', when Voyager runs into anothe stranded Federation vessel? The one comitting alien-murder to fuel their way home?) or the Defiant. Now those are small ships.

[@Tuning3434]

@@possibly_a_retard Still not big enough to allow the Delta Flyer to pass through those shuttledoors.

[@WozWozEre]

I think our perspective gets skewed a little by the frankly totally ridiculously huge Galaxy class and it's insane internal volume.

[@wargodsix]

There is blueprints around of each deck but nothing makes up for the video 3d

[@DrewLSsix]

@Jonny F that's extremely common actually, the Gallileo shuttle interior is way to large compared to the exterior set model. There's easily standing room inside for Nemoy who is over 6 feet tall but the exterior prop only has about 5 1/2 feet of space. Discovery finally canonized this by making the 31st century shuttles canonically larger on the inside than outside.

[@jasondyer329]

Finally, someone explains the layout of the main shuttle bay!!!

[@BryanMinnix]

I love these videos you make. I appreciate how much work it must be to research and model all this. Thanks for another one!

[@ezekielteklaking]

Voyager has always been my favorite ship, its compact design, maneuverability, science and weapons capabilities, the doctors holo program, it's a well rounded very capable ship. I always imagined if I was a captain this is the kind of ship I'd want to command.

[@Skippyzor]

In my opinion the Intrepid class star ship is a masterpiece. Big enough to hold its own but small enough to be effective in most theaters.

[@jawarakf]

Thanks Half screen, it's the most modern looking & practical star trek ship

[@Halfscreen]

I agreed. It's very nice and slick.

[@Nekzus]

Appreciate the thought and effort put into these. They make these ships seem like actual space vessels instead of just fancy soundstage sets.

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

I forgot what the name of the episode was but I remember where we saw the Captain's private dining hall on Voyager but when Janeway came inside she found Neelix had turned it into a galley and I think it stayed that way throughout the shows entire run.

[@KOSMOS1701A]

yeah i wondered why the mess hall was called captain's dining hall, guess that's just how i've always known it as.

[@TheJustUsLeague]

Yeah, that space was for ambassadors, dignitaries, and starfleet admirals to dine when they came aboard. It was pretty large compared to Capt. Jonathan Archer tiny private dining that barely could hold Trip and T'Pol as guests.

[@caelr.8553]

I think we got to see it in DS9. The Bellerophon?

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

If I had to guess like the Captain's Ready room the Captain's private dining hall would be a place where he or she could relax while having private meals to themselves though with the Captain's Ready Room on the Intrepid Class looks more like the Captain's quarters with how big the room is I mean it looks like you could fit 2 or 3 Captains Ready Rooms from a Galaxy Class Starship in there it was that big.

[@DouglasEdward84]

Love these so much Halfscreen, your channel is one of life's small treasures!

[@Big_Black_Dick]

super facts tho lol

[@Halfscreen]

Glad you enjoy it Douglas!

[@bramweinreder2346]

I always wondered about that craft under the saucer section! Wasted opportunity that they never used it. This is the Delta Flyer we all deserved.

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

Remember the Delta Flyer was originally not a part of Voyager's shuttlecraft inventory as Tom Paris had designed the Delta Flyer from scratch and the ships engineering crew worked around the clock to build it as they were racing an alien race to recover one of Voyagers probes that became stuck in the atmosphere of a gas giant.

[@BoogieManFL]

Dangerous cargo bay literally right next to the primary life support system? Brilliant!

[@nriqueog]

Big Ups to Alex for the Model work. They REALLY elevated the look & feel of this video, and of course the presentation and info provided is as always TOP NOTCH.

[@Halfscreen]

Much appreciated!

[@elblanco5]

so awesome! Now I can think about all these details when I'm imagining being onboard the ship.

[@Halfscreen]

You and me both!

[@TheFiown]

I watch Voyager every month.

[@nickster0007]

Absolutely love Voyager! So glad you made this one! :D

[@Halfscreen]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

Just listening to and watching this and after hearing about the spare warp core that it's not a permanent replacement it's like with spare tires on cars.

[@theelaffingman8776]

Looking at it like this, this ship is much bigger than it seems....very nice work man.

[@bobcarn]

I loved the TOS Enterprise as my favorite starship of all sci-fi shows. The later iterations of it were all right, but never dazzled me as much. Voyager comes in a close second though. I love its sleek lines, compact feel, and aerodynamics. Great job of showing how it's laid out!

[@Halfscreen]

The layout on Voyager logistically make sense since it more aerodynamic (unibody), lack the interconnecting dorsal and not as top heavy as the older Enterprise.

[@Joel.Derrick]

Such beautiful and amazing visualization work! Only now discovering your channel and such a gift to the sci-if, fandom and trek lovers everywhere! Thank you!

[@Halfscreen]

Welcome aboard!

[@naifradi2229]

Great video, just imagines if the big movie production corporation builds I real one for the tourists, will be I great experience.

[@Halfscreen]

That would be cool if they did!

[@Deebz270]

The Intrepid class has always been my favourite of all UFP ships. Even if it does look a bit like a warp capable clothes iron.

[@kaitlyn__L]

I appreciate the work put-in to fill-out these empty volumes. I must make a couple of nitpicks though in tried and true fashion. First, the side of the conference room is shown being used to leave without going into the bridge, so it can’t just be a wall. I propose it’s connected to the corridor out back of the bridge. They also occasionally show people leaving Janeway’s ready room and then being in the corridor behind the bridge too, so I think having some machinery there doesn’t make much sense, we can just have more corridor. Also, the plasma control room is on the outer edge of deck 15 rather than in the middle, and it’s shown to be smaller than in your model. Even though there’s clearly no real reason to have it be so small. Very thorough though. I actually hadn’t realised that the path from the warp core to the nacelles was so short on the Voyager.

[@Halfscreen]

When reading these schematic, it doesn't always follow the show directly. In addition, it is possible I may misinterpret the 2D schematic (which happen more often than it should) : ) , but I do appreciate viewers feedback regardless since I haven't watched the show in awhile.

[@GeorgeHollywood]

Absolutely LOVE your videos @halfscreen!!! I really enjoy seeing these detailed breakdowns of my favourite starships. I greatly appreciate your hard work creating these graphics! Excellent quality!! However I have to agree with @kaitlynn_L, there are small discrepancies compared to the TV show as well as the computer game "Voyager - Elite Force". Having watched the show more than 7 times and played the game as many times, Voyager is like home to me :) I LOVE this ship :) Conference room and Ready Room both have turbolift access without going through the bridge as shown multiple times in the show. Officer's Mess and Captains Dining room are off scale and the shape of the room is wrong compared to both VOY and DS9 TV shows. Shape and size of the sickbay is way different than in the show and the game. And the corridor outside sickbay is always portrayed as a long straight corridor. Engineering is missing the left and right console areas facing the reactor core as well as the small consoles directly in front of the core. Deck 15 is missing multiple windows as shown on both the show and the game. Again I'm just nitpicking because Voyager is very close to my heart... hope you don't mind :)

[@jamessmyth3952]

I’ve often wondered where the Star Trek producers find the kind of people to animate and create these 3-D images and obviously now I have figured out at least a partial answer they would hire you clearly you are passionate and do good work.

[@Halfscreen]

Thanks. It's probably due to budget reason.

[@quasarleon4645]

Man, I had a model of this ship as a kid . Brings back memories, thanks .

[@tylercooper4206]

I didn’t realize how much of the saucer section was taken up by the cargo bays. For some reason I always assumed they were in the engineering section but always had a hard time placing them because of how big they were. The episode where they put everyone in stasis pods finally makes a bit more sense now.

[@amyjojinkerson-b6o]

thank you for your tour it was fabulous

[@glenn_r_frank_author]

Love these deck by deck videos!

[@thegreenmanofnorwich]

I quite like that there are so so sooooo many shuttles on deck 11. It's just kinda fun, as Voyager went through so many of them.

[@schitlipz]

Your detail to these models is simply outstanding!

[@jamesbug2002]

Finally! My un-asked question is answered, they do have toilet seats on a starship! Deck 1..beside one of the escape pods!

[@ElysiaWhitemoonOmega]

on the bridge of the enterprise D one of the sidedoors also says 'head'

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

I remember the episode where we were first introduced to the Delta Flyer designed by Lt. Tom Paris and they showed the crew building the Flyer in Voyager's shuttlebay and it was in that same episode where it was discovered Belanna Torres was doing extremely risky stunts on the holodeck with the safeties shut off and it was Chakotay who discovered what Belanna was doing.

[@michaeldominic3183]

Super excellent job. Really well done. Can't imagine how much time it took you to complete all this.

[@Halfscreen]

Unfortunately, a long time. 😁

[@samwalker8893]

There is several references to the mess- when voyager left spacedock it didnt have an officers mess, it was due to be installed when they returned from the badlands Chakotay says on the 2 nd episode, it is suggested they convert a cargo bay to fill that need. When Neelix creates the kitchen janeway demands to know what happened to her dining room and Neelix tells her they created the mess. That room is on a outer wall not facing forwards but to port side and contains the kitchen, larder, prep room and a substantial dining room that converts to medbay, concert hall etc etc. it is nothing like those two examples given

[@histguy101]

The mess hall is seen on the show. The captain's private dining room was the small attached room that Neelix converted into his kitchen.

[@BlueSideUp77]

Yessir! My favorite design on screen.

[@mnpa6154]

Wow, thank you so much for this. So fascinating to see all the features of the ship that could not be included in the show.

[@oilandgasanimations677]

I love to check out the layout on Voyager. Great job.

[@MedicatedMemory]

My love for all things Star Trek is coming back. Then this pops feed...Serendipitous? Who knows, but you got a new sub

[@bidensanidiot8818]

It’s amazing when you think about it, no one ever attacked while the captain was in the head dropping a deuce.

[@joemaloney1019]

That is what the special CIH lights are for! Didnt you read your Users manual? CIH = Captain In Head.

[@ashemgold]

Just finished the 7 seasons of Voyager. Greatest series just beaten out by TNG and the legend Picard himself. Surviving in the Delta quadrant would have been much easier with the Enterprise D's weapons and resources, but they made it. First 3 seasons suffered from Kes and bad writing, but the remaining seasons were acceptable. Congrats on the amazing walk through. Now it all makes a little more sense.

[@andrewjohnson6716]

Another amazing piece of work! I really appreciate the amount of research, work and care that go into these videos.

[@niagarawarrior9623]

once again, an amazing job putting this stuff all together. really love the details. excellent job.

[@Halfscreen]

Thanks for watching!

[@All_Good_Things]

Great video.One thing missing is the turbolifts!

[@DarkRendition]

I watched Voyager as it originally aired in the late nineties and early aughts. I would have done anything to have a video like this to geek over.

[@Sliferzero]

The Show was One of the Best my friends. Thanks.

[@Halfscreen]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@wbradleyUtube]

I have always been a fan and I really enjoyed seeing it explained this way. Thank you.

[@Halfscreen]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@JimboLogic]

Awesome video yet again. Glad you're back voicing your own videos, I prefer it.

[@Halfscreen]

Glad you like them, some time, having someone else doing the work save me some time but I appreciate the compliment.

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

You know it's funny that when I look at the warp engines of the Intrepid Class Starships they remind me of the engines on a Federation ShuttleCraft like the one the crew of the Enterprise D gave Scotty at the end of the episode 'Relics' and the one Worf piloted in the episode 'Parallels'.

[@mackjsm7105]

Wow buddy!! Your videos are looking better and better!!

[@Halfscreen]

Glad you like them!

[@damiansweeney8537]

Nicely done I always love how much detail goes into each of your videos

[@Halfscreen]

Thank you very much Damian for the comment!

[@teddybetts3254]

They went through all the trouble of having an entire episode constructing the Delta Flier and multiple episodes centering it, and yet they had a captain's yacht the whole time that they never showed.

[@krane15]

That's been the case on many science fiction series, dating way back. For example, there was a space pod on Lost in Space that we only got to see in a couple of episodes.

[@spiritofthewolf15x]

Love this. She's one of my favourite ships.

[@vaevictis6990]

I love the Intrepid class. It's not a large capital ship or replacement for the Enterprise; just a functional scout / science and patrol boat. Thank you very much for the video. The only thing I would add is maybe in the corner of the screen a profile silhouette of the ship with a highlight of the deck we are looking at. I love the tech progression. Larger then Constitution, it required 1/3 the crew. Fantastic job man!

[@MatthewCaunsfield]

Great breakdown, lovely visuals

[@x057wind]

The turbo lifts must work on some sci-fi tech that teleports you around the ship it would save a lot if deck space haha Beautiful video

[@Halfscreen]

Thanks for the tips!

[@tcunero]

Oh this brings back memories. A great graphical representation. I think you have some clarifications on parts I guessed in my minecraft reconstruction. I'll have to update mine.

[@Tookarooks]

Most enjoyable trip around Voyager, always wondered where astrometric lab was located.

[@Halfscreen]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@XHunter442]

Complete animation of the Enterprise USS Voyager...? Ty for the video and well done!

[@paulnicoll1791]

Always wondered about the fleet of shuttles

[@TIMSMITH-rn2cp]

This information is eye candy, wonderfully presented and explained.

[@Halfscreen]

Thanks Tim.

[@dratheart]

Don't forget for Deck 1 the entire Bridge Module/Deck can eject from the ship in an emergency to act as a lifeboat. It only has RCS Thrusters for propulsion & limited emergency power for life support and is very vulnerable, but in an absolute emergency it can happen (even though we never saw it on screen).

[@victormgv]

3:03 Whoa! Seeing the car for scale blew me away 😂

[@pt3800]

Nice made... BUT some things don't fit... 1. Each deck looks different... there is no sign that there are turbolifts connecting the decks. 2. In the lower levels the space for the retrackable landinggear is missing. 3. Cargo rooms are totaly forgotten. At the outside view there was told that there are some access points for cargo/supplies at the bottom... where are they in the inside and where are the storage rooms for them. 4. The warp core engine room should be at least 2-3 decks high. The ejectable warp core itself (outside view) seems to be several decks high. 5. For the number of crew there are way to few quaters. Even if you put 4 per room in two shifts, the rooms are to small... what would cause problems on long explorations. 6. From the TV Shows Star Trek Holo suites design seems to be two decks high no matter what ship or station you are. The artist might rethink some Design decisions. ... just saying

[@talos86]

The industrial replicator is also missing. The Voyager was equipped with it. They used it, when the Delta Flyer was constructed.

[@mikewpg7270]

Well Done. Looking forward to your next Star Trek Video. Defiant? Nova Class? So many to choose.

[@Halfscreen]

Probably the nx-01.

[@CaptainValian]

This was great fun to see. Maybe I am a nerd but I like to see the construction, I have a few books on other ships. Well done my friend.

[@Halfscreen]

I thought about it, maybe when I have the time.

[@kurtstell940]

So well done. Always a pleasure to view!

[@Halfscreen]

Glad you enjoyed it!

[@kevinathans4191]

How the show didn't take advantage of the Aerowing ship, is beyond me...Have that with the Flyer? Solid little support team!

[@ctmason8]

I’d love to a sideway cutaway view like the one you just did for Discovery. So awesome.

[@whyY888]

Thank you! Cheers Randall!

[@TheMightyCookieShow]

I am very happy I ran across your videos I love the breakdown of these various pieces of equipment from the Star Trek IP I'm actually designing a battlecruiser myself or deep space combat and exploration so I'm finding these videos very helpful from a standpoint of layout and equipment that is required so thank you very much for taking the time I'm enjoying the crap out of your videos Benging

[@CaptainJonathan]

I always thought the crew capacity of only 150 was too low for this ship. However, with your breakdown, it begins to make more sense.

[@nicholasmorsovillo2752]

The episodes where we saw Voyager land on the surface of a planet: The 37's Basics part 1 Basics Part 2 The Q and the Grey Demon Dragon's Teeth

[@PaulGualtieri-m6v]

While I never cared for "Voyager" as a series, the "Intrepid" class is my favorite Star Trek ship hands down. Sleek and practical.

[@CharlesGervasi]

I like how 13:49 shows it fully stocked with 15 shuttles.

beautifully done!

[@cactusfloydx5d]

excellent video as usual!

[@Halfscreen]

Thanks again!

[@cr5586]

Thank you! Although I would have liked to have more explanations about the individual components or rooms. Also, I would love to hear comments about the logic behind the structure and position of the elements. Maybe you could include all of this in an extended version of the video?

[@Halfscreen]

I will looked into it but I have to dive in deeper and do some additional r&d.

[@prestonroberts2941]

Awesome work as usual!

[@Halfscreen]

[@originaluddite]

Watched this right after your video on the movie-era Constitution class and so really noticed the absence on Voyager of a garden or swimming pool. I _suppose_ they had holodecks but it still seems a shortcoming to me. :)

[@dammitspock]

Another crackin video, great work. Hope you can do DS9 & the Defiant one day.
