Description

He could never admit it, but Picard envied the captains assigned to newer starships. While he loved the quirks of commanding the USS Stargazer, he could not help wonder how things would fare in a brand new machine. The USS Andropov had just arrived for joint patrols in the Cardassian border. She was a Cheyenne Class cruiser, bristling with new phaser banks, powerful engines and other technologies trickled down from the Galaxy Project. The ship was fundamentally a spiritual successor to his old Constellation Class. He admired its sleek lines that emphasized the sculpted feel of the spaceframe. It was as if every component was meant for one another, certainly a far cry from his modular starship.

Years later, the Cheyenne would seem quaint when he received command of a Galaxy Class explorer, the USS Enterprise-D no less. Good things certainly come to those who wait.

I don't think I've ever seen the JJprise from this angle. Some of those details are totally new to me.
