Exploration Corps Universe

The Exploration Corps universe consists of five fictional eras that range from the late 21st century to the 25th century. In this fictional environment, our galaxy has only a few sentient alien species with star-faring technology. The first era begins in the late 21st century with the formation of the international Interplanetary Exploration Corps. During the 22nd century, a federation of democratic continental governments emerge bringing world peace and prosperity. By the end of this century, faster-than-light vessels appear and the Interplanetary Exploration Corps becomes the Interstellar Exploration Corps. Over the next 150 years, the Human presence in local interstellar space expands. In the mid-24th century, major improvements in faster-than-light drive result in Human space exploration efforts ranging much deeperinto the galaxy.  The Interstellar Exploration Corps grows in size and capability to become the Galactic Exploration Corps. This fictional environment is inspired by the science fiction Arthur C. Clarke and Jack McDevitt. I consider it my most sober portrayal of Humanity equipped with maturing faster-than-light technology combined with equally maturing societal development.

Concept

Starship Tranquility Transcendent is my vision of a large human exploration vessel equipped with tech level 7 star-faring technology. At around 1600 meters long, it is approaching the size of space vehicles I would label star-faring habitats instead of starships. It exists far enough in the future to have a different alphabet than any currently in use by 21st century humanity.

History

Starship Tranquility Transcendant was launched on 12 November 2521 AD.  This vessel was the largest tech level 7 exploration ship ever built by the Galactic Exploration Corps. It could accommodate up to twenty Dawn of Discovery class scoutships.
