[1] In the Star Trek Encyclopedia (3rd ed., p. 410), he also wrote that the designation Rigel-class was conjectural. StarTrek.com incorrectly identifies the model that was labeled as USS Princeton as the Tolstoy in their Rigel-class article. [2] According to the apocryphal Last Unicorn Games sourcebook The Price of Freedom, Rigel-class starships were heavy scouts, 215 meters in length, with a crew of 65. The ships had a maximum speed of warp factor 9.2.
