A little short for a starship, isn't he?

Yeah I'm not seeing how there's several dozen people moving, working, and living in that.

A container ship's crew is 20-30 people, and that whole thing is mostly containers. I bet they'd fit.

AS much as I enjoy some aspects of Lower Decks, that was one of the most phenomenally stupid decisions that they could possibly have made.

The crew sizes for Federation starships are TINY compared to the actual size of the ships. SNW giving every crew member their own studio apartment is something that reflects the ludicrous amount of empty space that a Federation starship has availalbe to it.

If you ever look at the deck plans, there's just a crazy amount of space that's unused.

Maybe if they narrowed that hallway a little, they could all have their own quarters.

In Strange New Worlds everyone above Ensign apparently has their own studio apartment.

Speaking of which, something funny I noticed about Discovery recently is that Burnham and Tilly continue to be roommates even after

. What's up with that?

Who wouldn't want to room with Tilly though?

Me, but for all the wrong reasons

In TNG and Voyager they all did.

I thought in NG 1000 people lived on it?

Iiving in one of the most densely populated cities on Earth, it sounds quite spacious to me. Perspective is wild.
