Description

"Those afraid of the universe as it really is, those who pretend to nonexistent knowledge and envision a Cosmos centered on human beings will prefer the fleeting comforts of superstition. They avoid rather than confront the world. But those with the courage to explore the weave and structure of the Cosmos, even where it differs profoundly from their wishes and prejudices, will penetrate its deepest mysteries."
-- Carl Sagan

Have made a new Alliance Carrier for the Post Reaper War Era. The Sagan class, named after Carl Sagan. (Mass Effect Carriers are named after Earth scientists, Explorers and pioneers)
To this time i have not much considered about size, crew and other specs. But this ship is built for the time after the Reaper War, when most of the Mass Relays are damaged and do not work. Ships now depend again on FTL drives to reach other Star Systems. After the Systems Alliance repaired the Charon Relay they send the Sagan out to repair the other relays to etablish the network again to reconstruct the galactic society.
The Sagan is a mix between a Dreadnought and a Carrier. It is made for Deep Space Missions, had a own fuel factory on board as well as over 400 Starfighter, Shuttles and Drones.

Because they could not send out whole fleets due to the non-functioning Relays, the Sagan was built extremely tough for her long lone travel. Through additional armor plates at strategic locations the Sagan is more robust than a Kilimanjaro class dreadnought. The oversized mass driver weapons have all been replaced by smaller Thanix cannons, to obtain more space for internal structures like a fuel refinery, shuttlebays, Cargo rooms for Repair Drones and a Biosphere for additional food and Oxygen supplies. Along with the reprocessing plants the Sagan can operate independently up to 15 years, should this be necessary.
At the moment, the Sagan is the only ship of this class.
After the Treaty of Farixen was cancelled by the circumstance of war, the Alliance spend most of their financial resources to build Dreadnoughts like the new Denali class. But it is planned, that the Sagan class someday replace the older Einstein and Tereshkova class Carriers.
