***** Historical Notes: *****

The DY-100 is, of course, best known as the sleeper ship carying Kahn Noonien Singh and 95 other Eugenics Wars refugees in the episode "Space Seed". The same model was reused as the ore freighter Woden, destroyed by the M-5 Computer in "The Ultimate Computer".

The DY-500 Was the ship mentioned in the TNG episode "Up The Long Lader" to have transported the Bringloidi and Mariposan colonists. Although it was only the name mentioned, I figured it fitting that it be an upgrade to the DY-100.


***** Note on the DY-100's Warp Settings *****

On the Botany Bay, the Warp Slider in the Enginering and Helm screens is non-functional. It has been added because ships in KA without warp definitions cannot be captured (they self destruct), and I would experience a cronic crash whenever entering the Helm screen. When attempting to warp to a target, the engines will spool up but will cut out just before they're supposed to kick in.
