Trivia
- The name 'Odyssey' derives from an epic poem written by the Greek poet, Homer. The story follows a commander, Odysseus, who gets lost on his return from the Trojan war, sailing to various places over the course of about a decade. The name is fitting for the ship because of the parallels: humanity embarks on a long voyage after emerging from the Interplanetary War.
