STAR TREK: VOYAGER - “PRIME FACTORS”
The scene in Engineering when the trajector technology goes bad was great… the fear and panic from everyone was very palpable, and you could really feel the tension and panic. Very well acted and directed scene. In all reality, however, after all that, B’Elanna should have been stripped of her rank and status as an officer, as she literally did almost destroy the ship, as a result of her actions. Janeway is wrong… she doesn’t NEED her… she wants her. She could very easily replace B’Elanna with Carey, so I felt Janeway was extremely lenient in this situation.

To be fair, Carey was equally guilty in almost destroying the ship as he was part of the group fiddling with the alien tech in the hopes of getting home sooner. So I feel neither B'Elanna or Carey would've retained their ranks, especially in light of Janeway demoting Paris for "disobeying orders", and sent to the brig for 30 days in a later episode...

That being said, it is definitely one of the better season 1 episodes. I feel Voyager doesn't get the positive credit it deserves.

Some of my feedback:

The interior looks okay so far, although not a huge fan of the transparent displays along the sides. As others have said, this does give off a DSC/PIC reimagined vibe, which I suppose is what it would likely look like if they do show something similar in Picard. The hud/windscreen/viewscreen thing is okay, other than that the HUD is actually a step back from what they had in TNG. The original viewscreen on the Enterprise-D was 3D, capable of projecting images at different perspectives depending on your position from the screen. Also, the viewscreens shown on both the Enterprise-E (in First Contact) and Voyager (Year of Hell) shows they use hologrid-technology.

As for the floorplan, my one suggestion is to bring back the sloped flooring from the upper level (where Worf would typically be) to the lower level (where the command seats and helm/ops are). Adding the single step down to the ready room and turbolifts is sufficient I think. Hard to tell from this angle, but appears you've lowered the doors in the back as well (which I think actually looks rather nice), as well as a MSD on the bridge. Something the original didn't have until the Enterprise-E (as well as Defiant and Voyager).

Overall I think this would look a bit cleaner with either TNG or Enterprise-E color palette for the bridge. Displays I'd keep exactly as-is.

No necroposting was done. @Rekkert didn't mind the comments that were done prior to your offtopic discussion. Seems you have a bigger issue about this than he/she/they do.

One minor nitpick, I think the registry on the saucer would look nicer if it wouldn't "overlap" onto the sides. This ship appears to have very sharp angles, compared to the original Voyager. Nice seeing this design fleshed out a bit, as Season 3 had a serious lack of detail for most ships, in addition to being overly darkly illuminated making it even harder to make out any details.
