The original stats were:
Crew: 4,200
Length: 1301 m
Beam: 976 m
Height: 325 m
Mass: 96,408,876 kg or 96.4 kilotons (metric)
--------------------
Don't remember what the calculations for tons per mass unit were, but
for reference:
So at 10 tons per mass unit - 9,640 mass.
or 100 tons per mass unit - 964 mass.
Also remember that the outer dimensions describe a volume that is mostly
empty space, the Andromeda has long tubular structures around the
perimeter but a much smaller "main hull" volume.
