I have real soft spots for the Ghost from Star Wars Rebels and the Normandy from Mass Effect.
For the Ghost though, I really love its strange shape, the WW2 bomber tail gun, and the attached shuttle. It’s both so typically Star Wars and yet still new.
Enterprise refit. Loved the original Enterprise and the Enterprise D when TNG came out, but there was something magical about seeing the refit on the big screen.
This, so majestic
Francisco Franco’s PM, Luis Carrero Blanco’s car turning him into a Good Fascist™ and Spain’s first astronaut
Daedalus.
Battleship Yamoto.
Yamato is pretty nice, very unique and playfully design.
I’d also like to add The Mothership from Homeworld. Also awesome story, and the game had revolutionary gameplay for it’s time.
I’m torn between the Defiant and Serenity
Serenity as a reaver ship is hard to beat
Imperial star destroyer
Certainly not the Event Horizon 😈
“I’ll take the Lewis and Clark to a safe distance, and then I will launch TAC missiles at the Event Horizon until I’m satisfied she’s vaporized. Fuck this ship!”
“Careful, that’s not a load bearing structure!” CRUNCH “It is now.”
Not sure in what context you’re asking this question, but my answer is the International Space Station. I love how it’s possible to see it at random sometimes at night, and the way it crosses the sky just looks different compared to a regular airplane flying at night.
Pedantic question! Does the ISS count as a spaceship? I feel like something that travels in an orbit is kind of the equivalent of something stationary on a planet… so it feels like more of a, uh, station, than a ship to me. It’s a good answer, though!
It has boosters. If it can move, it is a spaaaceshiiip!
True but it still has to be a ship!
Feels like a tomato fruit situation. It’s technically a ship, but we know it as a station?
A marine equivalent might be a floating structure with its own propulsion system. Technically a boat, but it doesn’t move around that often and it let’s other boats dock/undock from it.
The ISS’s propulsion is just for small orbital adjustments, right?
I think so, not sure if it can do much more.
The Swordfish from Cowboy Bebop. I recently bought a rather expensive model of it. Totally worth it though.
The USS Defiant
OP ass bullshit spaceship! It is pretty cool though.
The design is very human 😉
There’s a lot of ships I like in sci-fi, but the one that comes to mind at the moment is the garfish-class cruiser in robotech
Or if we’re talking about real spacecraft here, I like the soyuz (and really the whole r-7 derived rocket family to be honest), as I like the look of it’s side boosters and the four engine bells on each engine
The USS Crawlspace!
The Kestrel Cruiser from FTL. Even though it’s not even the coolest ship in the game, The Kestrel is still the most nostalgic for me.
It brings me back to when I first played FTL a decade ago. I was a kid back then and loved the game so much, I even built and painted a cardboard Kestrel model.
When it comes to FTL, The Lanius Cruiser is my favorite, but Kestrel was fun to play too. I remember going back to it several times, after unlocking new ships.
