I'm going to ask on Memory Alpha and see what everyone there thinks, MSD's can be misleading.

Anyway, this is about the Galor Class.

Is the MSD they show too

MSD's can still be misleading; the Enerprise for example has "the official USS Enterprise duck, the ship's mouse, a Porsche, a DC-3 airplane, the Nomad space probe, and the hamster on a treadmill that was supposed to be the true source of power for the ship's warp engines."

What's the chance that the Voyager MSD is more reliable than the Enterprise one?

Which Enterprise is that from? I also never remember seeing an MSD in TOS, but you see Voyagers pretty often which means they cant make a joke out of it.

The D's, the one seen whenever you are in Engineering.

I dunno we have other serious/reliable MSDs from voy and ds9



Yea ST has a sense of humor:

Ex Astris Scientia - In-Jokes

but when you could see the MSD even in TNG they tried to make it serious, so yea i;d take the MSD as factual.

Some can be serious, but only the artist who made it would know for sure what is serious and what is just there to fill up room.

Not to be a noob, but what's an "MSD"?

Master System's Display. The big diagram on every ships bridge that shows everything about it and if theyre functioning.

Ah that clears things up.

Apparently Voyager doesn't have a backup, regardless of what the MSD claims. Whenever anything happens to the Core, the ship is dead in the water with no activation (or even mention) of a second one.

They also never mention or use the aero-shuttle but it is there. The Ent-D had a captains yacht even though it's never used.

"I've seen the same image. On paper, I'd say it's there based on that image (although technically apocrypha as technical manuals aren't considered cannon). But according to the series, nope. There have been several episodes where Voyager has lost their core VOY: "Renaissance_Man" for instance, and they were dead in the water. If they had a back up, there wouldn't have been a problem, or a major plot device. -- Cygnis 19:55, 7 July 2009 (UTC)"

isnt very convincing to me, like i said it's prolly not at simple swap the thing in and it works. It's prolly just parts that with some serious effort they could assemble a core.
Main engi is clearly the one the back, it's connected to all the Deuterium tanks right above and antimatter bellow.
Oh look heres the whole designed for the second core

You can even clearly see both holes on the physical model of the ship

and heres is the main core being ejected:


Lets go a bit further even, and lets say voyager never had a second one, lets say it wasn't placed by the time they left space dock (installed on tuesday). It still doesnt negate the fact that the intrepid class would have the second core, they're both physically designed for it and their MSD shows it.

Assuming the mini-Core was added as a serious part of the MSD and not just to fill room on something people aren't expected to pay attention to.
