USS Horizon NCC-88003 – The USS Horizon and her sister ships are some of Starfleet's most advanced exploratory vessels. The Century class can often be seen informally as a 'love child' between the Sovereign and Odyssey classes due to the capabilities and similar size of the Sovereign and a very similar deflector design of the Odyssey. The Century class has similar dimensions to the Sovereign class. Century class ships typically have a smaller crew complement due to more of the systems being automated and as a result, the lowered crew complement allows for there to be more available room for the crew. The Century class is also equipped with a Quantum Slipstream drive that allows ships of the class to go faster than ever. In addition, the Century class can operate for large amounts of time in deep space, far away from the Federation. The Horizon and her siblings are typically considered capital ships, unless a more senior vessel is in the area, such as the Enterprise.
