- Starfleet has a plethora of Starships that play pivotal roles. From the main mission of Starfleet, to explore Strange New Worlds and seek out new life and new civilisations, but also for Defense and even during intense times like The Dominion War. So we have to ask, where were all of these ships built in the Star Trek Universe? Thankfully, we’ve had quite an interesting request from one of you watching these videos!

Title: The Shipyards of the FEDERATION - Star Trek Explained
#StarTrek #StarTrekExplained #Shipyards - Zábava
Probably should have given an honorable mention to Jupiter Station.
While not a full shipyard, there were responsible for systems development and installation.
It's where the NX-01 was supposed to have it's Phase cannons installed.
Jupiter Station is a must for sure
Starfleet, being a military organization, needs to have multiple shipyards to construct their ships. You just pointed out the well known ones. Also, keep in mind some shipyards depend on what ships they'd build, depending on the size of that shipyard, resources available, and capacity to build certain ships. You'd have smaller shipyards that would only specialize in building smaller ships, shuttles, runabouts, freighters, and fighters. Then you have larger shipyards that can build medium to some large ships, like San Francisco Fleet Yards. But let's not forget there's also classified shipyards that are off the records.
Would love a discussion of the economics of ST. The amount of resources needed for a single ship seems insane!
But then you get into the scale of the galactic federation and the fact that as of the next gen era at least they can literally construct new objects out of if not raw energy then at least raw energy and some base matter.
whats it matter when they have industrial replicators to convert energy into mass. Add to that their ability to generate large amounts of energy from their anti mater warp core's... yea i think money would be moot in a society like that. If truely run egalitarianly. Economics would pretty boring, simple. Maybe aside from materials that cannot be materialized which are there? They never really go into that. Money is still a thing outside their system so id think that the replicators cant replicate certain things. But the reality is energy to mass conversion would and could be anything if you had the programing for it. So. Maybe that's it. Certain elements are as of that time in history not known to replicate and is being worked on. They would always be working on the next thing to have put into the replicator. So latinum would be high up on the scale along with neutronium and other fancy alloys.
In a post “need” civilization everything else is just a want at that point. Beyond that it would be literally impossible to explain.
The "economics" of star trek is made up largely of unicorns, pixie dust and wishful thinking.
@@tomb7942 No. You just don't understand economics.
Defiant x1....saying thar..thank you Captain Jack and everyone at Trek Central for an in-depth breakdown of all the Starfleet ship yards!
When I think of Federation shipyards, I'm thinking of retired ships, which would be an interesting topic for a trek series.
Would it, though?
That would be great. Some old tugboat or formerly proud vessel missing its glory days, then called back into service for one reason or another, where it is chronically outclassed. Like a Lower, Lower Decks. Or a series about a ship graveyard like in that one TNG episode, with a low-stakes approach, dealing with mothballed ships and criminal intrigue.
How would it be an interesting SERIES? A few episodes at most as part of a plot but not a series, unless you’re talking about a few CZcams videos then sure why not.
Hello Captain Jack, thanks for sharing another interesting & informative video!!! 🖐️
Good to have the captain back on deck, yes I was thinking about the shipyards where they go to retire so crooks can steal all that useful gear and tech and of course stuff for a Vulcan reunion 😅
The defiant wasn’t constructed in the Bojoran system, it was constructed years earlier but put in decommissioned storage because of problems, and only brought out with the problems DS9 was having
The Enterprise A was launched from earth Spacedock as previously it was the USS Yorktown
I always thought it was weird that they show pictures of the shipyards with all the utility craft & shuttles buzzing about, but seemingly never show all the massive freighters that would have to constantly be delivering all the raw materials and components...
With replicators and transporters they probably don't need much of that supply chain
@keyboardt8276 freighters and supply runs are all over in trek. What are you talking about? Travis Mayweather wouldn't shut up about it, pikes ship is constantly making delivery runs, the 1701D also did supply runs constantly, as did the 1701.
It's all over in trek
@@drockjr but we never see the near constant stream of raw materials or prefab components arriving, only stuff in the very last phases of installation. No ships are seen hauling around nacelles yet to be attached or major ship components...
@biostemm oh yeah, great point. We do see scrap yards though. Does that partially count?
@@drockjrmost of the examples you cited are from the 22nd-23rd centuries when replicators had not yet been developed or were in their infant stages. Even if the Enterprise D delivered some items, in general the freighters we see are a far cry from what would be expected for a population of trillions, if they were mainly dependent on freighters for resource distribution. So my guess is that most Federation facilities/planets are highly self-sufficient, and only tiny freighters smaller than modern cargo ships are needed for the small percentage of items that worlds/facilities cannot produce themselves. Contrast this to star wars where replication tech is almost unheard of, and you see huge multi-km long bulk carriers along with large shipping companies.
Defiant X1 - I appreciate it, Cap'n!
If I can recall, on an episode of TNG they mentioned that the Utopia shipyards were on Titan, I do not understand how they ended up on Mars??
They must have moved them.
Slap some warp nacelles and a nav deflector on McKinley Station and you'll have a mobile repair and refit masterpiece.
You should highlight planetary based starbases.
Hmmm... nicely done video, I liked it. A couple odds and ends:
- Would Yard 39 count, or wold it not count due to being part of STO...
- I think there was a few facilities mentioned in the comics as being in the Sol system... A shuttle building facility in orbit of Venus, docks at Saturn...
- I think there was a section 31 dock at IO in the kelvin timeline. Isn't that where Scotty came across the dock for the Vengence?
Was wondering, why the federation shipyards do not have one central hub for crew, materiell and machinery, and more than one construction site iluminated and protected by pair of (struts?). You know, in space, each ship can be oriented according prefferences and effectivity. And do belive, it will be more effective, if the yards are working on 4 or more starships of the same or similar type all at once...
Defiant X1 - cool video!
The Defiant from Deep Space 9 was built in the same yard as NCC-1701-D
Defiant X1. ❤
Defiant X1
every sector probably had there own sector shipyard, for repairs and new constructions
defiant x1 .
I read that cassidy Yates ship was an antares class made at beta antases . As part of the kitomer accords .( to provide economic assistance and transport) there is another antares class the drone transport from tos . ( m5 episode)
I would imagine some of todays manufacturing methods floated into the trek world. Major components built is specialized facilities then shipped to the dry docks; engines, warp core, computer, etc. The hull and chassis might be 3-D printed. Looking at some of the non engineering art work 14:37 I can almost see the riveters, riveting the plates together.
Doubt they use rivets, it's probably some kind of molecular bonding or exotic welding process. And by TNG they probably use replicators instead of 3D printing (though perhaps you were referring to those when you said 3D printing)
In 2402, a group of rogue Starfleet officers steal the Genesis II Device from Daystrom Station and use it to reverse the ecological damage caused by the 2385 attack on Mars. By 2409 Utopia Planitia is reconstructed and operational once again.
0:03 i'd like to know how the pump atmosphere into those ships once they are sealed.
defiant x 1 or just defiant...
...did I do that right?
Eridni indeed, lol.
I like to see all galaxy class shipyard do a video on trek
Defient X1
I swear you guys are the perfect falling to sleep soundtrack
Would have thought spacedock would be in here. I know it’s mainly repair but some of those repairs are partial rebuilds.
Best of both worlds part two and all good things.
Defiant X1 :)

The less mentioned about ST:P season 1&2 the better. The fact that they (the writers and producers) thought that the federation needed to build ships to evacuate Romulus or that one shipyard being destroyed would cripple the Starfleet. It’s so beyond stupid it makes me want to puke.
It didn't cripple starfleet, it just made the already somewhat unwilling Federation completely unwilling to help with the evacuation.
Defiant!
i like the LCARS graphics
Hey, I live in Marin (mer-in)!
One cannot explain a shipyard!
Defiant x1
you forgot about the Betazed and Andorian shipyards
Vulcan ships, Tellarite ships and Andorian ships.
Also non America centred ships (and ship names) from earth (if any)
Would anyone happen to know what show had the scene of the Mars shipyard with all the ships at the very beginning of the video?
Voyager, I believe it was Season 5 Ep 23 - Relativity
@@Karnage316 Thank you so much!
The Cosmodrome: Eyes up, Guardians.
Do you have anything on the uss Oregon who is her captain and what is her class is she still around or is she distoid
Defiant to the end
Klingon shipyards? do each of the houses have thier own shipyards? Do they trade with the empire for ships? does the empire itself have a shipyard?
Defiant X-1
=)
what about yard 39 from discovery?
Defiant
DEFIANT X1
Please review section 31 ship from discovery
Massive fan of the page and the whole team keep it up please 🙏 LLAP
Lol I’d rather not review anything in Discov🤮. Sorry, couldn’t get it out with throwing up in my mouth.
And beta cannon, there are a number of Dry Dock stations like the ones in Star Trek Armada1, 2, and The Armada 3 mod for the sins of the solar empire game
The Drydock model was first depicted in TMP! In 1979 there was no CGI!
So much amazing and realistic work by the model makers!

Hello
is it me you're looking fooorrr?...
im still pissed that they destroyed utopia planitia.
Why Vulcan seems Mars?
Why cant certain materials be replicated, what is stopping Starfleet building giant replicators and replicating ships?
I actually expected the Federation to have a truly centralized Shipyard system. Primary shipyards should have easy access to resources in a system that can be defended by a solid ring of fleets in every surrounding system.
🖖🖖😆🖖🖖🍁
Want to see more videos on Enterprise d. And how Jordi restored the Enterprise d incomplete order for the past 20 years because thanks to the prime directive, the sauce C-section was retrieved so it wouldn't influence the system add engines in the cells come from the USS Syracuse. And if you could, please share more òn the uss voyager from the 32nd century. Thanks!!!
I read a novel where the mirror universe used a giant replicator array to build a copy of the Enterprise from stolen plans but needed to steal the computer or warp core from the Enterprise to make it work.
Is that how the yards work? Just replicate the pieces and then transport them where they need to be and have people go over it.
