I understand the new anniversary ship will be a Lukari science vessel. Any idea on her stats?

Probably in the week in which the Anniversary starts. So sometime in Feburary.
Anniversary will launch with Season 12, which begins January 26th.
I doubt it. We didn't get any other models from the Fed carrier project either.
Actually, we did. A lot of the 29th Century ships are leftover losing designs from the carrier contest, or based on them, at any rate.
What 29th Century ships? The only 29th Century ship that came after the carrier contest is the Paradox.
There is a huge difference between the carrier contest and the Lukari contest. The Lukari contestants are vastly different ships that can be used to create ships for new alien races while the carrier contestants are extremely limited to being designed as a Federation carrier. It was probably too late to introduce them for the Tzenkethi Lockbox since they wanted the Lukari ship to be available before any of the other contestants, but the Summer Event ship and the next Lockbox ships, provided that Cryptic doesn't introduce Tier 6 versions of older Lockboxes, could introduce the other Lukari contestants.
Yeah. Lotsa Science vessels, of late. I could do with an old-fashioned 'Escorts Online' (still sounds like a very cheesy name of an Internet dating service *g*) Escort again.
One stat of the ship is already known, though: it's super-cute.
While the Blog states 26 January, the in-game calendar states 7th anniversary starts on 2 February.
So unless the in-game calendar is wrong... but maybe the giveaways will start from 26 January, and the anniversary then after a week?
The 29th Century Starfleet Temporal Ships are the designs I was referring to, not the three 31st Century cross-faction ships. Every single one of the 29th Century Starfleet Temporal Ships is based on unused voting choices leftover from the carrier design contest. I'm surprised no one else has mentioned it (so far that I've seen), I can't be the only person who noticed.
Your subsequent rant is somewhat irrelevant, but your ostensible point is also based on a false premise; all the other choices we had to vote on for the Lukari ship are substantively different enough to recycle them as ships for another race. Case in point, what does a Dorito have to do with a Flying Saucer? Nothing at all, but they were both choices for a ship made by the same race.
*** Pardon me, the Nautilus is the one ship that wasn't a leftover from the carrier contest.
Those are 26th Century, not 29th.
29th Century is the home of the Wells/Mobius and their KDF/Rom equivalents.
I think people didn't notice it because they aren't very similar at all.
But, hey, judge for yourself.
Good questions. Hoping that the rep weapons won't be some AP or disruptor type again, we already have them in spades. Some new tet or polaron type would be welcomed IF their proc isn't completely worthless.
Here's why I had a feeling it was going to be a science vessel. Simply, the Lukari haven't been far out from their solar system (or at least thats what it sounded like they were saying to me). Thus they want exploration ships for long trips into deep space, can we think of another ship that was like that? Hmmm..... oh yes, Voyager! That's a science vessel too!
Didn't they tell us was a science ship?
well they go great with some salsa dip

Consoles 11 (5 sci, 3 eng, 3 tac),
Weapons: 3 fore, 3 aft (can equip cannons - even if they are suboptimal on Sci ship),
And maybe, just maybe a fighter hangar (please devs make it so!)
And maybe a hybrid Temporal BOFF seat...
Hm, T6 event ships:
Winter 14: Sarr Theln - Sci Carrier
Anniv 15: Samsar - Cruiser
Summer 15: Nandi - Warship
Winter 15: Rezreth - Dreadnaught
Anniv 16: Krenim Science Vessel - Sci Ship
Summer 16: Xyfius - Escort
Winter 16: Chel Boalg - Destroyer
Anniv 17: Lukari Science Vessel - Sci ship
Seems to me that they take care to put out one of each "career suited" ships during a run of the three ship events. Which IMO is a good thing, especially if you're FTP. And also a pretty safe bet we're going to get an Eng themed ship in Risa this year.

This year’s anniversary event for Star Trek Online offers captains the opportunity to complete in-game missions to earn exciting rewards, including the new Tier 6 Lukari Science Vessel, which the community selected the design for last fall.
It will be a Lukari vessel, but at this time it is not yet known if it is science, cruiser, escort or hybrid.
Actually, the Season 12 announcement blog quite specifically calls it a science ship. Which suits me just fine; I've got a science captain who could use a better looking ship than the Krenim Science Vessel he's currently in.
On Tribble, the date has changed for the Anniversary to January 26th.
There is the Independence Day saucers that didn't conduct any experiments. Flying Saucers is attributed to almost all UFO sightings while very few alien sightings actually deal with conducting experiments.
It is possible that Flying Saucers is due to a bunch of Alpha Centauri University students letting off steam over the weekend by conducting experiments and making crop circles on the nearby wildlife. There is also the explanation that Robot Chicken came up with. Extremely funny especially with who one of the voice actors is, but not appropriate to post the video on the forums.
