- Similar in size to the Constitution class, these ships were equipped with four warp nacelles. They were primarily used for extended patrolling and deep range exploration. First seen was USS Stargazer, Captain Jean-Luc Picard first command, in TNG's "The Battle".
- The Constellation-class starship was a type of Federation star cruiser employed by Starfleet from the late 23rd century through the late 24th century.
- The Constellation-class starship was a medium-sized cruiser employed by Starfleet in the late 23rd century through the mid-24th century. It operated using 4 nacelles instead of the standard two and thus had a higher maximum speed than most Federation starships of the time. By the mid 24th century, most Constellation class ships had been relegated to supply duties, but could be called upon to participate in fleet actions. One of the more notable Constellation class Light Cruisers was the USS Stargazer under the command of Jean-Luc Picard.
- The Constellation-class was a type of starship in service with the Federation and Starfleet in use from the late 23rd century and all through the 24th century, classified as a star cruiser. These ships were among the mainstay of Starfleet's exploratory and defense efforts through the early part of the 24th century, some commanded by the same captain for up to twenty years or more.
- The Constellation-class exploratory cruiser was in Starfleet service in the 23rd and 24th centuries. A notable feature of the Constellation class was that it was one of the few classes to use a four nacelle configuration. The Constellation was launched in 2284. (Ship Recognition Manual, Volume 4: Starships of the Original Series Era) Production of the class ceased in the 2350s and Starfleet planned to retire the class fully by the mid-2380s.
