So ok many of us here are Sci-Fi nuts, with what I imagine is quite an extensive knowledge of spaceships from various sci-fi TV shows, and Films.

So my question to you is:

Were we to be given the opportunity to whizz around the universe in a spaceship of our choosing from any sci-fi TV show and/or Film, which spaceship would you choose and why...?

I'd maybe opt for the Millenium Falcon - for sheer cool factor, but I was always partial to that thing those kids built in the film The Explorers remember that?

Also I loved the Cylon Fighters from Battle Star Galactica That'd maybe be my choice for a fighter.

So over to y'all?

Ok, so maybe this shows my real level of geekitude, but here goes...

My favorite spaceship is certainly the Enterprise from the future from the last episode of ST:TNG. Maybe it's just the way it was piloted (Whoa! 3-D flying in the Star Trek universe! Unheard of!), maybe it was the fact that Riker was the captain (He's certainly the coolest (not necessarily the best, but the coolest) character from the show), or maybe it was the fact that it just destroyed the ships that it was fighting, but it really cool. Certainly left an impression on me.

That's just too easy!

There is no choice and no discussion!!

It has to be the Millenium Falcon - or that could be the Harrison Ford Factor, I guess ....

Hmmm... I can't choose one, so I just have a list of options just off the top of my head... some are perhaps a bit obscure, but...

The Carrier, from the comic series The Authority. Hell, I don't even need to cruise around space in it, I'd be happy just being in Earth orbit with it. :)

The Enterprise D, solely based on the fact that it has a holodeck.

Just based on my name here I'd want to name the Hooded Swan, which is a great ship compared to every other ship in its universe, but really doesn't have anything special about it beyond that.

Moya from Farscape also up there, assuming Pilot came along.

I like the Cylon fighters too. Those would be too short range though.

I think the Scimitar from ST: Nemesis could be fun. All the power and glory of an imperial cruiser with a nice "now you see it - now you don't" flair. Need a pretty big crew to run that one though.

The Negh'Var class Klingon ship would be fun for about the same reasons. Problems are the same though.

I guess I might go with the Klingon Bird of Prey. I think I'd go with the D-12 subclass for easier planetfall. Still cloak. It's a nice fighter. And low crew req's.

With no crew... the Millenium Falcon. I sure would miss that cloak though.

When I die I want to go peacefully in my sleep like my grandpa. Not screaming and yelling like everyone else in the car he was driving.

Being a sci-fi geek as I am, there is no one easy answer.
For a one man ship, the Viper from the new Galactica.
If I'm bringing the family, the Jupiter 2 from the series Lost in Space.
For a large crew, the Enterprise from Star Trek 1 through 6.

And if I'm operatin' on the shady side of the law, it's a tossup between Serenity and the Millienium Falcon, guess it depends richly on what I'm smugglin'.

As far as what I'd ride around in, I've gotta agree with StarPilotGrainger: the Enterprise D. For much the same reason, too- it's roomy, comfortable, and has a holodeck and extensive library.

As to what the coolest ships are, I always liked more utilitarian/ realistic designs. The Eagle from Space:1999 and the StarFury from Babylon5 are two great designs. Most realistic fighter design has to be the Gunstar from Last Starfighter. You almost never see a fighter with turrets- how stupid is that!!!

As to prettiest ship, I'll take anything from Naboo.

For my one man fighter - an X-Wing. I've always thought it is the coolest looking fighter.

For a bigger ship to live on its a bit more difficult because there are so many criteria to consider. I'll take Serenity if it comes with Kaylee!

The Liberator from Blakes 7.

Not only was it the fastest, most powerful ship in the galaxy, but it had the coolest design and the best amenities.

I'm kinda partial to the Runabouts from DS9, for personal cruising craft. But my absolute favorite ship of all time is the Romulan Warbird from TNG. Big. Green. Decloaks out of nowhere and wipes the floor with the pathetic federation starships.

Though, for the biggest of the big and bad, it's the Super Star Destroyer.

Ohh yeah I forgot about the Bird of Prey - that is an awesome looking ship.

Some interesting suggestions coming out many of them I don't know off or have seen so looks like I'm going to have to bone up on some of my sci-fi.

One that I forgot to mention earlier is the ship form Silent Running now for a cruising ship with the family this is the one! It even had buggy's to get around the inside of the ship with. Way cool!!!! Oh and I've just remembered Circa from Ulysees 31 animated TV show.

There are so many.

Any chance I could kidnap the guys from "The A-Team" and force them to cobble together all the collest parts of the different ships I like?

One of my faves is the Sulako (sp?) from "Aliens." Give it a holodeck, maybe a Battlestar-type launch bay, throw in a bunch of X-Wings and Tie Fighters, tack on one of those conversion chamber things from "V," toss the "Seaquest" sub in the back...

For a big ship there is only one answer: The Cygnus from the Black Hole. that is one beautiful ship. Preferably without the morbid and creepifying zombies.

Smaller ship: Falcon or Serenity. Probably Serenity, since Han has the Falcon modded until it breaks all of the time.

I was going with the design, if I had to pick the ship itself...
the refitted NCC 1701, it had the biggest rec rooms, and the most history behind it. Also the NES cells were more efficient than in any other non trans-warp design ever made.

The GTB (Galactic Terrain Bomber) Athena light bomber and GTF (Galactic Terrain Fighter) Hercules heavy fighter from the Decent: Freespace game on PC. The Athena is just a fast & mean little sucker for its size and is the most ascetic looking bomber in the game (there are some ugly ones in there). If the magazines were removed and replaced with cargo pods she would make a neat little short range smuggling ship, and a small cabin could be retrofitted for longer flights. The “Herc” is like an AK-47 big, not very subtle and kinda clumsy but it can tear though a group of enemy fighters and strafe a cruiser with out a scratch on her hull.

Hmm.

For fighters, it's a tie between the J-95 version of the X-Wing (seen in the New Jedi Order series; basically an X-wing with a few system upgrades for Jedi pilots), and the Starfury fighter from B5.

Being a mecha nut, I'm also fond of Macross 2 or Macross Plus era Veritechs (the older Macross 1/Robotech models just don't impress me that much), or a nice Gundam from either Seed or Wing continuities. Realistically though, I have to admit that giant humanoid robots tend to be more trouble than they're worth.

For small crew ships, much as I love Serenity, the lack of weapons would make me antsy (don't want to have to use 'em, but I like knowing they're there). Either the Millennium Falcon or the Eureka Maru from Andromeda.

(My personal custom would be based on the movie version of the Jupiter 2. Yeah, the movie sucked, but that ship was just sweet! It was like the Falcon, but bigger, and with curves.)

Lighter military ships are DS9's Defiant, B5's Whitestar, Gundam Seed's Archangel, or the (Sabre-class) Da Vinci from Star Trek: S.C.E..

For larger military ships, gonna have to go with the Andromeda Ascendant (a High Guard Glorious Heritage-class destroyer). It may not have shields, but it's the only televised SF ship that can handle realistic space combat (engagements at far-beyond-visual-range, distances measured in light-seconds and light-minutes, physical and electronic countermeasures, guided warheads, point-defence lasers). It also comes with a fully-conscious AI avatar, complete with holograms, several types of robots (including two house-sized mecha ), AI-guided drone craft, and an optional Ship-Made-Flesh android. She can support over a thousand crew, troops, and support staff, but can still function with a crew of five, and comes with a fully self-sufficient on-board factory, capable of "eating" an asteroid field and churning out everything from fighters to personal body armour. It also has an arboretum, with a Vedran Oak that stands three decks tall and wider than some ships.

Runners up include the (Sovereign-class) Enterprise-E, the Cardassian Galor-class Trager (from the post-TV DS9 novels), or the SDF-1 from Robotech.

Cybersnark, you really know your ships!

Have you ever checked out Crest of the Stars/ Banner of the Stars? It's an anime series (based on books, not manga) consisting of three series, each about 9-12 episodes. Pure space opera at it's best! While the story is about the two main characters, the setting is the beginning of an intra-galactic war. And the space battles are rivoting. A little cerebral, but well worth it. If you're not hooked by the end of episode 5, nevermind.

Anyway, recommended for anyone who loves space opera/ fleets and doesn't mind anime. And no, I don't get a cut of the sales.....

I'm going to have to second with the TARDIS. Serenity and the Millennium Falcon might have character and distinction, but for efficiency and what it could do, you can't beat a space and time traveling ship powered by a time vortex and all packaged in a 1960's police box.

Friday, July 15, 2005 6:06 AM

Okay, one ship per universe.

Star Wars: Millenium Falcon, the original hyperspace-capable hot rod. Complete down to the fuzzy dice hanging in the cockpit. 'Nuff said.

Star Trek: The Delta Flyer from ST:Voyager. All the utility and clean lines of DS9's runabouts, but with that same ubercool hot rod mentality. And hey -- a Star Fleet vessel with real controls--joystick and throttle -- instead of a stupid touchpad.

Babylon Five: Earthforce's atmospheric shuttles -- especially for the way they landed horizontally, but launched vertically -- are one of the most believable transports I've seen in TV SF.

Space:1999: The Eagle class in general would be the obvious choice, but I'll be specific and choose the long-range variation with the modified heavy-lift modular unit and strap-on booster packs that was first seen in the episode The Metamorph.

Space Rangers: The hero's patrol craft, Tin Lizzie; An early example of CGI-driven FX on the small screen. It was in some ways an interesting show, a western in space with realistic firearms instead of zap guns. A bit ahead of it's time, perhaps... Oddly enough, despite the fact that it wasn't broadcast on Fox, it was still cancelled quickly.

Red Dwarf: Starbug, which I have always thought of as a late-model Volksraumschiff.

Firefly: Serenity. (Big surprise).

As you can see, I have a weakness for smaller ships, especially cargo craft, and vessels with the potential to be converted into smuggler's rigs. Must'a been a rumrunner in a past life...

MACBAKER

Friday, July 15, 2005 9:02 AM

For pure asthetics and comfort, the beautiful lines of the Consititution Class refit (the Enterprise in Star Trek the Motion Picture) would be my first choice. It has the best lines of any Star Trek vessel ever!

For pure fire power, it would be a toss up between Andromedia and Defiant. I love Sisko's little ship, but Andromedia has Rommie, so that would be the tie breaker!

For a hotrod, I'd have to go with the Mark II Viper on the new BSG. The Millenium Falcon is a custom hotrod like a 32 Ford, and I love it, but the Viper is like.....well a Viper (Dodge)!

For a small basic transport, I'd be torn between the Eagle from Space 1999 and the Runabout from DS-9. For nostalgia's sake, I'd probably choose the Eagle.

All these these ships have things I love about them, but if I had to live day in and day out on a ship, Serenity would ultimately be my choice. It may not be as pretty or advanced as some of the others I've mentioned, but since I would take my family along with me, a ship like Serenity would feel more like home. I know I'd feel comfortable walking it's decks, and I'd be confident that my family would be safe living aboard her.

I'd given some thought to movin' off the edge -- not an ideal location -- thinkin' a place in the middle.

Friday, July 15, 2005 5:12 PM

For a fighter class ship I'd have to chose the SA-43 Hammerhead from S:AAB. It's got an articulated main gun, missiles and a defensive aft turret. Plus, sexy curves!

For a small ship I'd take Serenity. She's got a mechanic, unlike the Millenium Falcon. The lack of weapons is bothersome, but I think the object in a ship this size is to not be noticed.

For a big ship I'd take Galactica from the latest BSG. I recall the Enterprise from TOS got it's tail kicked by a Romulan nuke. Galactica seemed to weather the Cylon nuke that hit it pretty well. No accounting for yield, but still...

For ridiculously large ships I guess I'd have to go with the IAV Dortmunder... j/k How about the Lexx? Main weapon big enough to destroy a planet. Maybe a little undergunned for small ships, but what the heck, it's got style!

I believe (according to the toy, anyway) the cockpit freely rotates, always "upright" in a planet's gravity well. Handy for the pilot when fighting near planets.

Also, my wife reminded me of two great capital ships that I forgot. The Vorlon and Centauri cruisers from Bab 5! Surely, Kosh's ship is better than Moya in a fight.

I've recently been re-playing my aging copy of X-Wing: Alliance, and I'd just like to share how much I hate B-Wings.

B-Wings are specifically designed to cripple & kill frigates. They do this remarkably well. The only problem is that everything else is specifically designed to kill B-Wings.

They're slow, awkward, and big enough to have their own gravity well that sucks in any stray fire in the area ("friendly fire isn't"). Because of their hugeness, enemy craft can lock missiles at up to three times the usual range. B-Wings are only really effective when paired with X-Wings and/or A-Wings as escorts.

Sorry Folks but Lo'Laan (from Farscape) has it all!

Sexy looks,

Serenity feels like home to me (the Millenium Falcon is too dirty and, while the various Enterprise incarnations have better weapons, they're too impersonal).

After many years of many spaceships, my all-time favorite is Boba Fett's "Slave I". Though, it wasn't until Firefly that I could succinctly explain my love for that ship. Slave I has always seemed to me to be a one-man "Serenity".

For coolness? Amidala's silver bullet.

For sentimentality? NCC-1701. No frickin' A-B-C, or D.

For sheer size (not to mention musical ability)? The mothership from Close Encounters.

Are we allowed spaceships from books?

If so:

Very Big Ship:
The Culture GSV "Sleeper Service"
(no crew, plus it would kick the death star's a$$)

Big Ship:
The Super Star Destroyer "Executor"
(needs crew, but you gotta love the ability to invade and conquer a fair size planet)

Medium Ship:
The Andromeda Ascendant
(for all the reasons given by others, plus the sexiest AI in three galaxies)

Small-ish Ship:
Serenity
(although you'd want the crew too... otherwise it would just feel weird)

Fighter:
The Viper Mk VII
(the new version of the Viper, from the new Battlestar Galactica... Tough call between the Mk 7 and the old MK 2)

The Palimino from "The Black Hole" is a little known choice. Cool little ship, and it was portrayed as having no gravity, more realistic than many. Never could could find a model of her.

Serentity is an obvious choice. I have always liked depictions of vessels without weaponry. More realistic in many ways, also leads to some..... interesting situations. Besides, she's one of the more unique ship designs lately.

The Victory Star Destroyer from the Expanded Star Wars Universe has also always held my fancy. Not quite the Imperials, but cool nonetheless.

And finally, the Battlestar Galactica from the new series. I like the design, I like the interiors. Well-done and very good looking.

We will call it...... This Land.
No! We will call it your grave!
Oh No. Your sudden but inevitable betrayal.

Y'know....too much emphasis today is put on really big ships. Highly over-rated, and seems to me to be compensation for something.....

I'm with Rocketjock, I like the smaller ships.
Space 1999 Eagles were always a favorite of mine.

Like Oxyopia, I'll be showing my age by agreeing on the Starfighter from Buck Rogers. And I'd take a Viper over an X-wing anyday.

Of course the Serenity is a given.

And I have to mention the Millenium Falcon, Jupiter2 from the movie, the Diligent from the Wing Commander movie, and of course the Cygnus from The Black Hole.

It has extra upper and lower decks that appear as needed without increasing the outer size of the ship, what other vessle can do that?
Plus, it doesn't even get scratched every time it crash lands.

For a big ship I'd take Galactica from the latest BSG. I recall the Enterprise from TOS got it's tail kicked by a Romulan nuke. Galactica seemed to weather the Cylon nuke that hit it pretty well. No accounting for yield, but still...

For ridiculously large ships I guess I'd have to go with the IAV Dortmunder... j/k How about the Lexx? Main weapon big enough to destroy a planet. Maybe a little undergunned for small ships, but what the heck, it's got style!

Hardware,

Love the fact that someone besidese myself remembers S;aab. Loved the show. Wasn't that on fox too? The hammerhead was great, sleek fighter. For something larger - the new Battlestar Galactica. Hey the the thing can take several direct nuclear hits. Who said size doesn't matter? Something in the mid-size range - the Sulaco - Aliens. Big enough to have two drop ships inside.

AA, (love the nick by the way.) S:AAB rocked. One of the early examples of Fux screwing over a series. Let's put it up against 60 minutes on Sunday night and advertise it like it is a kid's show, despite the fact that it is dealing with heavy themes. And oh yeah, we'll let football overrun into it's timeslot and not tell anyone what the plan is for showing the episode, start late or rejoin in mid-broadcast. Feh! I've been hating Fux for a long time.

But Apone's soliliquy from the Sulaco refers to "The Corps" as in the United States Marine Corps or it's equivalent.

Other than that +1!

Some ones that I liked that have not been mentioned:

The Dropship from the Sulaco (people mentioned the Sulaco, but not the little fighter). Thing could take out a brigade with its firepower.
Not really a spaceship but I always like Korben Dallas' cab from the 5th Element.

Someone mentioned spaceships from books so how about the Thistledown from Eon? It has a chamber that goes on forever?

Personal ship or fighter: Slave I, D'Argo's ship in Farscape or Darth Maul's ship

Large ship: Enterprise from ST:TNG or a Star Destroyer

>The Argo from Star Blazers

I am suprised that this has only been mentioned once... I have always loved the Space cruiser Yamato (Argo, in the US). Beautiful ship... great story, at least the first couple of series anyway..

Another possibility would be Wolf-1 from the too short lived comic book series Dynamo Joe. Not exactly a ship (in more ways than one) for the maybe one of you out there that will know this obscure reference. But with Wolf-1.. I don't think ANYONE would bother you.. not the alliance.. not the reavers.. not the empire.. or the Klingons... or Cylons.. or Romulans.. or Borgs.. or anyone else. At least they wouldn't try twice.. if they lived the first time that is..

Hmm.. but all that aside.. if I HAD to choose one ship... hmm.. it would be hard to pass up the holodecks from the Enterprise.. but if I had those.. I probably wouldn't ever come out.. ... But Serenity is more than just a ship... it's more than just a thing to get from point A to B.. it would feel the most like home to me.

Someone asked a few weeks ago.. if you were a member of the crew.. what would the others think of you. And granted.. just being thrown into it tomorrow.. it would be scary as all gosset!!! I mean... gun fights.. running from the alliance.. reavers.. It's easy to talk about those things as fiction.. but in reality.. when was the last time any of us was in a gun fight??? Probably never. However... had I been born into and grown up in that environment.. that society.. that universe, No other place to me in sci-fi(that I will mention here anyway ) would feel more like home than Serenity. It's the gritty rusted underbelly of just about all the other Sci-fi out there... and that's exactly a big part of what draws it too me..

The one problem would be.. what would the other crew think of me? Well.. I would be )(#@*$)#(*$)#($ jealous as )#(@$*)#($* of Inara's feelings of Mal.. Hmmm... so maybe I would have to go for the holodecks..

Having played through X-wing, Tie Fighter, and X-wing vs. Tie Fighter, I am a bit biased towards the Tie Defender as my favorite interceptor/fighter. However, I was always partial to the Vasudan Destroyer for some type of major Capitol ship. they may not have been the most powerful Capitol ships, but they were, "Aesthetically Pleasing." Maybe you can tell I played Freespace a bit too when I say that I like the Valkrie Fighter. I don't think I'll include too many Star Trek Ships... Never cared for the Feds, they looked like they'd be pretty weak against a snub fighter (get in under the shield and torpedo the connection twixt the Nacelle and the Saucer). I'd like to throw a bit of defense in the direction of the B-wing. Yes, they do stink in Star Wars: Rebel Alliance, but that game isn't exactly designed to be a snub fighter game.

Now to put these all in order...

1. Valkrie (Freespace)
2. Tie Defender (Star Wars Universe)
3. Vasudan Destroyer (Freespace)
4. Thor's Chariot(Stargate)
5. SDF 1 (Robotech)
6. Andromeda(Andromeda)

Sadly missing is the girl in proper Star Wars Fighter pilot gear with her wee car painted up like an X-Wing. (Not too bad, actually...)

I doff my very fine hat to you, StarPilotGrainger; your post got me to register with fff.net. Brian Stableford is sadly overlooked as a writer of classic spanner and grommet space operas and I have read several copies of his Granger series to death.

My nominee is the spaceship from It! The Terror From Beyond Space. In the far off future of 1973 it is a roomy, single stage to orbit ship that is so ruggedly built, you can let off 11 hand grenades in the ventilation system and have a bazooka fight on the bridge.

Sure, it looks like the hood ornament on a 1954 Olds but it far superior to anything we have today. A close look at the ship's plan in one scene shows it doesn't carry any fuel and yet it can maintain 1g acceleration all the way to Mars and back.

I don't know if any others have thought this but wouldn't it have been fun if Joss had shot some scenes in Bronson Caves (Batman tv, It Conquered the World, Wild Wild West, Robot Monster) and Vasquez Rocks (where Kirk battled the lizard man and many others) as a tip of the (very fine) hat to those who came before?

I can only express puzzlement, that borders on alarm.

The Fhloston Paradise from the Fifth Element.

I'm not interested in going fast or kicking any butt. I want luxury. Comfy State Rooms, Five Star Dinners, World Class Entertainment.

Now, let's be clear, Serenity is by far my favorite ship. I'm also partial to Enterprise D, Voyager and the Milennium Falcon....but I don't want to spend a lot of time on military or cargo ships....especially ones prone to being pulled over by the authorities or that have pieces that tend to fall off at inconvenient times.

Moya. Hands down. I like the idea of a ship that loves you back.

Big considerations for me in cruising around the 'verse would be ease of use, crew size, and comfort (let's face it, goin from place to place in the black leaves a lot of time for sittin around and waiting).

The Lexx would be easiest to use and maintain, also pretty intimidating (what w/ destroying planets and all) but not too comfortable.

The Sol Bianca's pretty classy but notorious so folks would always be gunning for you.

Firefly has style and a homey feel but you'd need a skilled crew and lots of tlc.

The Falcon is very cool but not too comfy and about to fall apart any moment.

Any of the later mod. Enterprise (or Voyager even) would be the most comfortable but too big in crew req.

Runabouts and Eagle too small and spartan.

I'd take any of the above (oh ok, even the Heart of Gold for that matter) but final choice would probably be the Andromeda.

This is the captain. We have a little problem with our entry sequence, so we may experience some slight...turbulence and then explode.

Always liked the USS Defiant, sort of the muscle car of Starfleet.

But one of the graceful looking ships of all of Sci-Fi was the Enterprise D- well the exterior anyways- the interior looked like a gorram Holiday Inn.

And I've always had a softspot for the Earthforce Destroyer from B5 with the spinning section- it looks cool and nasty.

So I'll take the Defiant ( with the optional holodeck sunroof and cupholders) with Serenity for weekend trips with the kids.

Easy

Go-Anywhere-ness = The Master's Tardis (Chamelon system works!)

Super Bad-Ass-ness = X-Bomber from Star Fleet (Only the defiant comes close in this bruiser-cruiser category)

Totally efficient warship = Shadow vessels from Babylon 5 (Hey whats that jump point - what's that black spider thing - whats that pink plasma death ray? AAARRGGHH!!!!)

Semi-Organic/sentient ship = Three way tie - Vorlon cruiser, Tardis and Moya.

Best fighter = the 'front' two seater from Lego's 'Starship Explorer' Space Kit from the 80's - Fighter at the front, Science Lab at the back, with a docking cradle to join the two. the blacktrons never stood a chance, bless them.

Best ship with a one off weapon? = R-Type shuttle or X-Bomber (the mega blast in R-Type is equalled by the x impulse, but that's only my opinion)

The one I'd most like to drive? The USS Reliant - it's like Trek visiting to an italian tailors - definately the Alfa Romeo of the Star Trek universe

It would help if *I* had the key to it, though...:-)
The great advantage of Lexx is the fact, that he doesn't take too much caring after - you just let him eat and he does whatever you tell him to do. Very convenient for someone as inept with technology as me...:-)
