Galaxy

The Galaxy is the best Miner-class ship added into the game so far.

Description
The Galaxy is the largest and fastest harvesting (60 m/s) Miner class ship in the game with 4 Large Mining Lasers and takes a minimum of ~166 seconds to fill up its Ore Hold.

Interior
The interior starts off with a fancy hallway leading into the pilot's room.

The pilot's room contains a detailed chair, behind a hologram of the Galaxy. To the left and right of the hologram are two screens giving details about the ship.

Advantages

 * Has the most health out of all Miners, with each 10,000 Shield and Hull points.
 * Has the highest mining rate with its 4 Large Mining Turrets.
 * Has the largest Ore Hold in the game, with an Ore Capacity of 10,000.
 * If destroyed, it has the third largest explosion radius in the game, with a 10,000 stud range, double the size of the Nyx, being beating by the Prototype X-1 and Prototype X-2.
 * Can make up to $150K per hour of Mining.

Disadvantages

 * All Turrets are top mounted, requiring the ship to be below or in front (at an angle) of Ores.
 * Most expensive Miner and a prime target for Pirates.
 * Pathetic maneuverability.
 * Requires 2.5 Million Credits to build.
 * Huge and bulky, making it an easy target.
 * Aliens often attack Miners like the Galaxy.

Strategy

 * Don't mine in War.
 * If you are mining in a Galaxy when you get ambushed by combat ships, Aliens, or a Prototype, your best bet would be to quickly get back to your Starbase and despawn. (Do not over-estimate the health of the Galaxy, just because it has high health, doesn't mean it has damage resistance)
 * Don't use this as a nuke or a tank because this is a very hard ship to get.
 * Ideally only use this on a VIP Server, as getting caught by larger ships and you might lose it cause of long dock times.

Version History

 * Disabled along with all other Advanced Ships (previously identified as Artifact Ships) in version .65a (?).
 * Re-enabled in version .65b, but cost increased dramatically from 795,900 Credits to 2.5 million Credits.

Trivia

 * You can make more than 13,000 Credits per run with this ship, even with low Loyalty, and can make more than 15,000 Credits per run at 30% Loyalty.
 * Alongside the M Class, Festive Wasp, and the Patriotic Rorqual (if you count the Patriotic Mining Lasers), the Galaxy is the fourth of its class to have Large Mining Lasers.
 * The Slowest Miner to date.
 * The fourth most expensive ship in the game.
 * The ship ranked second on the poll which took place on 19/10/18, it was voted as a new Miner.
 * jay4444444444, the same person to be the first to lose a Cyber Leviathan, was also the first person to lose a Galaxy, to an Alien.
 * The Galaxy 's interior is very similar to the Absolution's interior.
 * The only Miner that requires a quest to be completed to be earned.
