Favorite Spaceships
(lemmy.world)
What are your favorite spaceships from science fiction shows, movies, games, comics, anime or anything?
The Swordfish from Cowboy Bebop is probably my top favorite. I like the idea of small compact ships meant for a single person and going fast.
For that same reason I love the Razorback from The Expanse. Except the engine to ship ratio in this universe probably makes more sense realistically. The cockpit 360 swivel system is also really clever.
The Outlaw Star from.. Outlaw Star is not a small ship. I just like it because it looks cool despite its goofy unrealistic grapple arms that hold weapons.
I've always liked just about any sentient/thinking ship. Oddly enough, I can't think of any examples where a thinking ship has been paired with a wicked design. Although I might just be overlooking something.
But some examples from sci-fi fiction:
Edit: Sorry about the spam, all us social media lemmings are making things slow and buggy, poor lemmy.world can't keep up with us.
Moya in Farscape might fit the bill, but she only really communicates through the pilot.
The Culture ships. I'm sure at least a few of them look wicked.
Once again the universe tells me I need to read that series.
