Throughout the various series, we see many classes of probes launched, What do the various classes do? I would think a class 1 probe would be the least advanced whereas a class 4 would be one of the more advanced probes.

Your best source is the Star Trek TNG: Technical Manual which details the nine classes of probes.

The manual is at least semi-canonical, being authorised by Roddenberry and written by people involved with the show.

  • Posting a link to an entire ebook is a no-no. Be selective and post just the page :-) – Valorum Oct 31 '16 at 9:13
  • @Valorum - wouldn't posting the pages be violating copyright? – Tim Oct 31 '16 at 19:25
  • @Tim - No. It would come under the heading of 'fair usage' whereas posting a link to a warez site where you can download the book illegally is clearly well beyond fair use. – Valorum Oct 31 '16 at 19:30
  • @Valorum - makes sense. It's easy enough to find anyway :-) – Tim Oct 31 '16 at 19:31
