Talk:USS Republic

I heard there was an Earth Starfleet Republic mentioned on Affliction. Is this true?-Excelsior 14:10, 19 Feb 2005 (GMT)
 * it is possible, however, if so it wouldnt be associated with this page. --Gvsualan 15:56, 19 Feb 2005 (GMT)

Removed text
Since space is completely noncorrosive to a ship's hull, the factors that limit a ship's useful life in Earth's saltwater oceans, which corrode metal via electrolysis, are completely eliminated.

I removed this text because while it is true as far as it goes, it gives a misleading impression because there are other factors that might weaken the ship's hull over time, including: micrometeor damage, thermal warping due to repeated heating/cooling, and radiation-induced metal fatigue.

The pertinent background section reads fine without the text, so I thought it best to remove itCapt Christopher Donovan 01:52, 10 December 2008 (UTC)
