Graham, what I did was use up several sources. Basically I looked for a shot of Central Park from the air, then I exported an image of the Galaxy from Sketch Up, using the same perspective, and because it did not amount to very much (as I said before, Central Park is very large and I was not expecting the ship to look that insignificant), I also threw in some random stuff (like Picard )

Compared to moons, planets, stars, and the entire universe, a Galaxy class starship is pretty small. 8)

Planets and moons are tiny too compared to the universe or galaxy. Our own Sun is actually quite small.

Only two things are infinite - the universe and human stupidity, and I'm not sure about the universe: Albert Einstein.
