The Galileo class entered service in 2036. One of the most durable workhorses in spaceflight history, Galileo class ships were early fusion ships that could attain modest relativistic speeds (.2c; later .35c) and began to take humanity into interstellar space. In the 2040s, the Galileo class was the primary ship class to the asteroid belt, and in the 2050s, it was the most popular carrier to the outer planets. The Galileo class vessels were retired from service in 2060. The Galileo class featured a complement of 98 personnel, including six officers and 92 enlisted crew members, and could be modified with multiple forward fuel spheres for extended missions. The Galileo class was the first Human vessel equipped with elementary interstellar celestial navigation.[1]

FASA Timeline
The Galileo class entered service in 2028. One of the most durable workhorses in spaceflight history, Galileo class ships were early fusion ships that could attain modest relativistic speeds (.2c; later .35c) and began to take humanity into interstellar space. In the 2030s, the Galileo class was the primary ship class to the asteroid belt, and in the 2040s, it was the most popular carrier to the outer planets. The Galileo class vessels were retired from service in 2052. The Galileo class featured a complement of 98 personnel, including six officers and 92 enlisted crew members, and could be modified with multiple forward fuel spheres for extended missions. The Galileo class was the first Human vessel equipped with elementary interstellar celestial navigation.[1]
