MAXWELL is a Tesla-class Surveyor. After successfully testing and improving the DELPHI array deep space sensor system on the USS FENRIS, it was decided to implement it in a smaller class of vessel with a strong emphasis on scientific use.  It quickly became evident that a medium-sized ship of 300 to 450 crew would be the platform suited best, filling the gap between the WOLFE-class frigates and the DIOGENES-class cruisers both in size and crew.

The ship's saucer section is somewhat elongated with a more streamlined arrowhead appearance to facilitate a more efficient warp bubble at higher warp speeds, while the engineering section is resembling the shape of an elongated AMBASSADOR-class design with variable position warp nacelles.  The hull allows an emergency separation but cannot reassemble in space.  There is no Captain's yacht to allow the bottom of the saucer section to be shaped for optimum deflector use.  The auxiliary shuttle bay doors open forward.

MANDELBROT is a Tesla-class Surveyor, like the USS MAXWELL.
After successfully testing and improving the DELPHI array deep space sensor system on the USS FENRIS, it was decided to implement it in a smaller class of vessel with a strong emphasis on scientific use.  It quickly became evident that a medium-sized ship of 300 to 450 crew would be the platform suited best, filling the gap between the WOLFE-class frigates and the DIOGENES-class cruisers both in size and crew.
To avoid the mass and energy consumption that comes along with a third nacelle to shape the subspace field for scanning purposes, the TESLA class uses a variable warp nacelle geometry, based on a two nacelle design.  Improved ORACLE-IId sensors, alongside SESR and extra computing power allow for standard white hull, despite the almost back coating of its FEYNMAN predecessors.
The ship's saucer section is somewhat elongated with a more streamlined arrowhead appearance to facilitate a more efficient warp bubble at higher warp speeds, while the engineering section is resembling the shape of an elongated AMBASSADOR-class design with variable position warp nacelles.  The hull allows an emergency separation but cannot reassemble in space.  There is no Captain's yacht to allow the bottom of the saucer section to be shaped for optimum deflector use.  The auxiliary shuttle bay doors open forward.
