Scientific pursuits remain at the forefront of Starfleet's agenda, and a range of '''science ships''' are specially designed and built for these missions. Many are modular, allowing different laboratory modules to be swapped in and out to reconfigure the ship for a specific mission with relatively little effort. Surveyors such as the {{c|Nova}} are designed for short-range astronomical surveys and planetary research. The {{c|Oberth}} has served as a mobile research laboratory for over a century. Newer deep space science vessels such as the {{c|Oracle}} are capable of undertaking long-term missions without the need for as frequent refueling or resupplying as previous generations of science ships. | |||
