The '''Galaxy '''is the 2nd largest, 3rd fastest harvesting (43 m<sup>3</sup>/s) and one of two [[:Category:Advanced Ship|Advanced]] [[:Category:Miner|Miner]] Class ships within the game (The other being a limited counterpart, the Freedom Galaxy) with 2 [[Turrets|Large Mining Lasers]] and 2 Large Advanced Mining Lasers. It takes a minimum of about 2 minutes & 46 seconds to fill up its Ore Hold.

The interior of the Galaxy can be accessed via teleporter on the docking ramp. This will take players to a small room with three chairs. The center pilot's seat faces three screens. To the left of the door that teleports players back outside the ship is a polygonal wolf/bear graphic.

== Advantages  ==
* Has the 3rd highest mining rate with its 2 Large Mining Lasers and 2 Large Advanced Mining Lasers.
* Has the 3rd highest mining rate with its 2 Large Mining Lasers and 2 Large Advanced Mining Lasers, first being [[Freedom Galaxy]] and second [[Woolly Mammoth]].
* Has the 2nd largest Ore Hold in the game, with an [[Ores]] Capacity of 8,000.
* Has the 2nd largest Ore Hold in the game, with an [[Ores]] Capacity of 8,000.
* Has an explosion value of 300.
*Can get around 200-300k [[Credits]] per hour mining on a '''Galaxy'''.  
*2 Hours and 30 Minutes for normal mining, if you get a steady exact 6 minutes, however we cannot grant a REAL estimation because of the mechanics of loyalty. I estimated this to be EXACTLY 10k each round, so get this with a grain of salt.  
*On '''33''' [[Loyalty]] you can make 30k [[Credits]] per dump.
*With shutdown mining, it takes approximately 10 runs for 210k, if it's with a steady 7~8 minutes, it would be 1hr 10 mins ~ 1hr 20 mins. Again, this is just in estimation, if you consistently mine for exactly this amount of minutes, so I'll make it as a disclaimer.
*Turrets have a long range.
== Disadvantages  ==
== Disadvantages  ==
* All Turrets are top-mounted, requiring the ship to be below or in front (at an angle) of Ores and Materials.

* The most expensive build menu Miner, and a prime target for [[Pirating|Pirates]].

* Huge, bulky, and slow, making it an easy target.

* Extremely expensive Uranium cost, a rare and expensive ore.
* Extremely expensive Uranium cost, a rare and expensive ore.
* Extremely expensive if you do not have the [[Galaxy VIP Gamepass|VIP Gamepass]], as the non-VIP quest costs 600 thousand credits and an additional 4 data shards, 2 antimatter shards, and 1 quantum core.

* Don't mine during a [[War]].
* Don't mine during a [[War]].
* If you are mining in a '''Galaxy''' and you get ambushed by combat [[Ships]] or [[Aliens]], your best bet at escape would be to quickly get retreat to your [[Starbase]] (via warp) and despawn. (Do not over-estimate the health of the '''Galaxy'''. Just because it has high health doesn't mean it has damage resistance)
* If you are mining in a '''Galaxy''' and you get ambushed by combat [[Ships]] or [[Aliens]], your best bet at escape would be to quickly get retreat to the closest non-enemy [[Starbase]] or '''Planet''' (via warp) and despawn. (Do not over-estimate the health of the '''Galaxy'''. Just because it has high health doesn't mean you can simply ignore your enemies)
* Do not use this as a nuke. While the '''Galaxy''' is an adequate nuke ship, it is very costly, instead, use the [[Orca]].
* Do not use this as a nuke. This ship has a small explosion radius compared to it's price.
*Do not use this as a tank, it is not worth it.
*Do not use this as a tank, it is not worth it.
* Ideally, only use this on [[U.N.E]].
* The large mining lasers have a range of 6.5k and the advanced large mining lasers have 6k range. Additionally, you can utilize the various ship angles to have all of your turret's mining, this is due to the overwhelming length of the Galaxy.

* Beware of warp traps and dock blocks.
