Galaxy was the second of the three spaceships of the Tsung fleet. Whereas it's sister ship Cosmos was intended to be used for travel to Earth, the Moon and Mars, Galaxy was designed for Earth-Jupiter travel. Also powered by a muon drive, Galaxy was considered the swiftest and fastest of the fleet, capable of reaching Jupiter in a matter of weeks if travelling at it's highest speed being 1000 kilometres per second.
