Deep Space Fuel Tanker - S. F. S. Uisce Beatha

Description
One of ST Enterprises earliest models still in production, this clunky ship is as reliable as it is old. Uisce Beatha (pronounced "whiskey buh-hah) takes its name from an Irish phrase translating roughly to "Water of Life." The purpose of this ship is to supply a fleet or orbital base with fuel and breathable air.
--24 hydrogen tanks give you plenty of stock to carry with you, if you're planning on being a trader. Alternatively, you can use this massive supply to keep an entire fleet refueled in between mining excursions and battles.
--16 oxygen tanks enable you not only to supply yourself with air, but your friends and allies as well.
--84+ oxygen generators ensure that you can refill your own tanks when they get empty in no time!
--The bridge comes equipped with only one seat, but the main cabin has plenty of room for additional seats or cryo pods., should you need to install them
--One large cargo container gives you all the space you need to pack ice for air and fuel creation.
--Store weapons and supplies in a small cargo container in the cabin.
--Main power supplied with a large reactor. Two small reactors give you just a bit of extra juice for those days when you have to keep all your generators and such running.
--Medbay in the cabin makes Uisce Beatha a respawn point.
--Two landing platforms are attached at the aft, with connectors on each one. Small mining ships and/ or drones can be placed here to take with you to the next source of water.
--Equipped with an ore detector to help you scout out hidden sources of ice.
--Has a standard antenna for use in friendly space, as well as a laser antenna for those times you'd rather not give away your position.
--Jump drive equipped for quick escapes or shortened journeys between asteroids.
--If you've been discovered by a hostile force and you don't have time to recharge the jump drive, you can kick on the emergency thrusters for a burst of acceleration. You'll lose some of your stock fuel, but you'll live long enough to refill it.
--Most importantly, there is an extendable probe along the keel of the ship which will enable you to couple with other ships in need of fuel.

NOTE: This ship is designed for deep space use only. If you enter a gravity well with Uisce Beatha, you will be unable to leave! Please be careful.
