I THINK IT WOULD BE COOL FOR ALL US VOYAGER FANS TO MEET SOMEWHERE AND BUILD AN ACTUAL LIFE-SIZED MODEL OF THE SHIP.

Dude... do you realize that the dimensions of the USS Voyager are in KILOMETRES? Like... more than one? Where would you build it?

, yeah. that would cost millions of dollars to build. Even if we made it out of toilet paper.

yeah, it would be cool if there was like a star trek museum. They could have the bridge, sick bay, engineering and other important places from the show. That would be awesome.

Well there is the Star Trek Experience in Las Vegas, which I've never been to.

It's measured in meters, actually, but...yeah.
It'd be impossible to build, in the way that even the turbolift is more advanced then what'd be able to get built. Then the general technology all around.
A museum like that might be fun, one that's not incredibly expensive and/or a temporary thing, but it wont happen. Star Trek the Experience, does allow a shuttlecraft ride, a trip to the ENT-D bridge, and a chance to shop on the Promenade of DS9.

That sounds cool. Maybe someday I'll be able to check it out.

Hmm, that Star Trek experience sounds interesting, might have to look into that since I have a friend that is seriously considering going to Las Vegas next year and trying to talk me into going.
As for making a life size model of Voyager, yeah...that would be quite expensive and might be too hard to really do?
