The archetypal Borg cube is a variety of immense, cubic starship that functions as part of the Borg Collective. It was first seen in the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Q Who?" upon the Borg's first contact with the Federation Starfleet in 2365. The cube appears to be the principal spacefaring unit of the collective; it is by far the most common Borg craft seen on-screen and the type of vessel used in both the episode "The Best of Both Worlds" and the film Star Trek: First Contact.

The only unifying principles in the design of a cube are its shape, a decentralized/generalized arrangement, a size of several thousand metres per edge, and a hosting of tens or hundreds of thousands of drones. Erin Hansen, the mother of the future Seven of Nine remarks that the cube they studied was 29 cubic km in volume. This number sizes the length, width, and height dimensions at over 3 km. In Star Trek: First Contact, the atmospheric pressure aboard a Borg ship is described as being two kilopascals above what would be normal on a Federation starship, relative humidity is an average 92%, and its internal temperature is 39.1°C.

  • Wow the best i have seen so far, i have a simple question...have you used a large cube as a base and built around it wil smaller cubes or made it entirely from small cubes? because your suface detail seems so random and mine that im working on atm just simply sucks.

  • large one with small flat ones

  • Is it me or are all trekkies incredibly focussed on detail?

  • Behold.....it is the cube in mecca.....seeking to make drones out of humanity before we reach the stars. Fuck Allah....Fuck Allah.....I'd be proud to be the dijjal (Anti-christ)

  • We are Yout. You will be banned resistance is futile. All your creations will be serve to us

  • I became dizzy while watching this.

  • Its part of there thinking perfection in some cultures the sphere which they also use and the cube which they obviously use are perfect shapes. Inside the cube are 100's of thousands of drones and the cube itself can take on 40 galaxy class star ships and still not be damaged

  • np i'm a very understanding person i don't think that just because i'm a big fan and your not that i soundn't talk to you like anyother fan or get mad if you say something alittle stubid about something you don't know about

  • Thanks man, you don't often get a response like that when you say you're not a fan. Appreciated.

  • that's understand able it's not for everybody

  • As I said, "for as far as I'm concerned".

    I'm not a big fan of futuristic stories.
