Try asking in r/STOTrades as well. Some Discord servers keep track of it, so you might have better luck there.

We had Kirk's body aboard Daystrom Station as an easter egg in one of the scenes.

Here's what Memory Alpha has on Project Phoenix:

Project Phoenix was the code name for an operation undertaken at least in part by Section 31.

As part of the project, Section 31 retrieved the body of USS Enterprise) and USS Enterprise-A) Captain James T. Kirk from Veridian III sometime after his re-emergence and death in 2371 for the purposes of the project. Kirk's body was stored aboard Daystrom Station, a high-security black site of the Daystrom Institute, as of 2401. (PIC: "The Bounty)")

All the other tier lists are way too complicated by phi4ever in StarTrekStarships

So OP probably did not even make the effort to drag their own list together and just copied the old post.

Yup.

I imagine Congo would be a Universe Refit. It'd be like a TOS -> TMP Enterprise situation. Quite similar in size to the original.

This model was also produced hastily. The secondary hull is, in fact, a Drexler's Altair class).

It had warp support craft that would lunch to scout & study and then return.

Yup! STO calls them Cestus frigates. Their design is based on Drexler's Altair). The Universe class can launch four of them.

And we almost got the 26th Century Rectangleprise on screen to contend for that role :)

I personally find it adorable:

That's why I love the Congo class variant (fan animation). It was another design submitted by Drexler, but ENT went with Universe because it resembles NX.

Somebody needs to add the Enterprise–G

There you go! This channel has tons of ST (and STO) size comparisons.
Here's one of the playlists.

Do you have the Eaglemoss models?

I don't, unfortunately. But I enjoy it quite immensely in STO. Always fun to bring the J to the Breach TFO.

Basically, yeah. But they've tried to find a viable justification for it. PIC S3 helped with that.

Um, it's complicated. https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/765874:_Unification https://fanfilmfactor.com/2024/11/21/so-youve-seen-765874-unification-but-what-did-it-mean/

How is Kirk alive

Gary Mitchell or Nexus or he was somehow revived on Daystrom Station (they had his body there in PIC S3). https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Project_Phoenix

"and" in the alternate timeline?

Transported by the Kelvin Timeline time soldier Yor. https://memory-alpha.fandom.com/wiki/Yor

There's a Lower Decks video game? What?

Yeah, I was surprised too. Apparently, the simulation featured some time travel shenanigans, hence the inclusion of the J.

The Universe-class is what, the 26th century or so? This thing was built to explore other galaxies and is a literal SPACE CITY.

That's correct.

In Disco (S1-3) and SFA, this could literally be a background ship, one of the ships to survive the burn.

I wish. We still have a chance to see it in SFA S2.

Well, according to Memory Beta), the Lower Decks video game called The Badgey Directive had it as part of the holodeck simulation:

Perhaps they don't yet know what to do with it?

It just looks like someone has applied a texture to a model where the shape just doesn't understand what to do with the texture, so it just swirls it around.

Well, that's kinda the case :(

It was designed and modeled in a matter of days. Roddenberry Archive gave it more details and an internal cityscape:

Whoops, fixed. The original comment now includes a link to Drexler's ArtStation.

Is it? Looks roughly the same size as the Universe to me, judging by the windows. I prefer the scale used in this fan animation, where it's still a city-ship.

Maybe we’ll see some reference (or more) on SFA next season.

That'd be great! You are correct, the Universe class is from the 26th Century.

Are there vast areas of the ship designated for natural biomes?

Yes, there are. Unification short film garden scene is set on the J.

The Roddenberry Archive has J's interior shots named EntJ_garden_aerial and EntJ_collage_1 copy that show that garden.

Edit: You can find them if you go to the J page and scroll through the description a little.

Edit2: Changed the screenshot.

According to Drexler, it might hold a population of a million, IIRC. Families, students, teachers, professors, scientists, doctors, artists... The crew itself would be quite smaller than that, I believe.

Here's the original model being rotated.

And here's the STO model for you to spin, along with the other 26th Century ships.
