    Can they replicate shuttles (or at least most of the parts) ?

      That’s why everyone had to always be on replicator rations: Janeway’s coffee addiction and constantly replacing shuttlecraft.

        if Janeway could only get coffee back at earth she probably would’ve violated every directive of Starfleet just to get back home

        I think it was just to give Neelix (and the Doctor) something to do.

        They made it out of the infinite shuttles.

      And it was designed to be a long range exploration vessel so it makes sense.

      But it also has a new untested holodoc and computer and warp nacelle config.

      So new long range outside space station repair range and new untested config. Great plan overall.

      In Prodigy, the USS Protostar has a vehicle replicator that it uses to print shuttles on demand. The Intrepid class was fairly resilient and self-contained, so it’s a fair assumption it would have something similar, but we never see one on screen or even directly mentioned.

          it’s entirely possible; I personally don’t remember and I can’t find a hard reference in Memory Alpha on any relevant pages (industrial replicator, vehicle replicator, Intrepid class, uss voyager). Most of the memory alpha references are in DS9.

        she’s chummy with Q so probably gets him to do it in return for babysitting his kid

          Janeway doesn’t wanna deal with that bozo, she probably just time-travels to get blackmail on Q to keep time-traveling in a big loop
