Hard to belive but true, isn't it?

The correlation probably is coincidence, but the use of the individual terms
isn't.  The term "Starfleet" may just have been taken from the old Star Trek
series, which long predated the LEGO set.  As for Voyager, the NASA/JPL Voyager 1
and 2 projects were begun in (I believe) FY 1975 and were launched in 1978 and
1980 (again, correct me if I'm wrong), so it would have been very current
exploratory science when the sets were being named.
