| - During the Collapse, these ships were also used in an attempt to flee the solar system to escape The Darkness. They only made it as far as The Reef before being obliterated by The Darkness.
- In starship classification, colony ships were starships designed to transport colonists and equipment to new worlds. A typical colony ship was unarmed and may be dismantled at its destination, in order to provide an initial material base for the construction of further colony installations. Colony ships are also used in the video game Star Trek: Armada II.
- __NOEDITSECTION__ This ship is used in the colonization of empty planets. Essential for any ambitious empire, they enable a colony to be settled. Upon landing, the ship is deconstructed to provide the initial metal and crystal required to start developing a colony. On old universes, any resources sent in the cargo hold of a colony ship will be lost upon colonization of a planet. However, in new universes, all resources sent in the colony ship's hold will be transferred to the new colony.
- A colony ship was a type of starship used to colonize a planet or moon. Before the invention of the hyperdrive, human colony ships were usually large, slow vessels that took hundreds of T-years to reach their destination, resulting in the dilemma that sometimes the target system had already been reached by faster ships of later centuries upon arrival. (UHH) Most early colony ships were built in orbit of Earth or Mars. (HH8)
- The colony ship was the first ship to be built. Equipped with construction robots, it enables the colonization of planets.
- The Titanic-class colony ship is a terran aerospace transport.
- Colony Ships, also known as Colony Transports or (derisively) Colony Liners, are large interstellar spacecraft designed to carry large numbers of colonists to their new home, along with all the equipment required to get a colony started or continue an ongoing colonization process; this includes heavy industrial and agricultural machinery, prefabricated buildings, Power Generators, and enough equipment and supplies to survive for several months, until one or two harvests have been completed.
- A colony ship (or colonial transport) was any type of spaceship used for the transport of potential settlers -- as well as the equipment needed to establish a new colony (or supplement an existing one) -- to a given destination. After the development of warp drive, colonization efforts from Earth increased. Between the years 2063 and 2079, 33 extrasolar colonies in 20 star systems were established by warp-driven craft. (Star Trek novel Federation) One of those colonies was Terra Nova in the Eta Casseopiae system, founded by settlers aboard SS Conestoga. (ENT: "Terra Nova")
- A colony ship (also known as a colonial transport) is a starship that carries a mix of passengers and cargo that are intended to found or expand a new colony. As such they are designed to be rugged, self-sufficient, and have long endurance, since they frequently operate for long periods in areas with minimal or no port facilities.
- A colony ship is any ship outfitted with a colony module and used for colonizing. Colony ships are required to establish a colony on an unclaimed planet. They can also be used to move citizens between planets you already own. Colony ships are expended upon the creation of a new colony, which happens as soon as the colony ship reaches a class 1, or better, planet that is currently unclaimed. Colony ships used to transport citizens to other planets you own can be reused until they create a new colony somewhere (or are killed or decommissioned).
