Revision as of 04:48, 15 February 2005

A science laboratory (for short, lab or science lab) is any area set-up for work in experimental or observational science. Areas like these are commonplace aboard explorational vessels such as Federation starships, space stations and outposts, under the auspices of Starfleet's sciences division.

Constitution class

The Constitution-class USS Enterprise had fourteen separate science labs during James T. Kirk's historic five-year mission as commanding officer. Kirk met psychologist Helen Noel at the 2265 science lab Christmas party. (TOS:"Operation: Annihilate!," "Dagger of the Mind")

Galaxy class

Galaxy class starships like the USS Enterprise-D have at least sixteen general-purpose science laboratories (TNG: "Suspicions") plus a number of dedicated facilities studying different disciplines. Extra labs could be installed on Deck 8 if needed. (TNG: "Liaisons") Typical science laboratories aboard a Galaxy class starship include:

Intrepid class

Typical science laboratories aboard a Intrepid class starship include:

Sovereign class

Typical science laboratories aboard a Sovereign class starship include:
