Lexx is one of my favourite ships. It was such an oddball show as well.

I’m not going to say Meatfucker did nothing wrong, but I always liked A Frank Exchange of Views .
I’ve always liked Falling Outside the Normal Moral Constraints
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.
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.
The Swordfish from Cowboy Bebop. I recently bought a rather expensive model of it. Totally worth it though.
The Red Dwarf :)
It’s cold outside, there’s no kind of atmosphere…

On my Facebook feed there was a Transformer toy in the shape of Starbug called Smegatron.
Daedalus.
I can’t decide between The Planet Express ship and the space Van from Spaceballs.
I am mildly obsessed with the Saturn V. It’s just such a feat of engineering and human cooperation.
The Hail Mary currently. Just such a cool ship from a fun book. To think about what would go into building it and what that means to humanity is humbling.
Other notables:
- Enterprise E from First Contact because it looks cool.
- Cygnus from The Black Hole
- Sulaco from Aliens
- Trimaxion Drone Ship from Flight of the Navigator
- The Abominator-class Offensive Unit Falling Outside the Normal Moral Constraints (my usual favourite lol)
The Intrepid class of star ships.
BC-304. The Prometheus was so ugly in comparison.
Shout-out to the basic cable show that was giving us Hollywood-level visual effects effects as early as 2004.
Atlantis gets visual effects Emmy nomination
The Atlantis Effect: An Interview With Mark Breakspear
GW: Visually, which is your favorite episode of Atlantis so far?
MB: “The Eye.” The Rainmaker team created their own CG software to create the stormy water for the ocean. The level of detail and control has never been seen in TV effects before. Dan and Jose at Rainmaker pulled out all the stops and created mind-blowing shots. I think we went about 3.5 times over budget on that one — but you can’t get away with crap. You guys can spot that a mile away, and nothing kills a show quicker than cheap looking effects.
The Prometheus may have been ugly, but it was my favorite because it was Earth’s first. It was kinda janky and totally experimental, but it was absolutely a necessary step in our advancement of science enabling better and cooler ships like Daedalus. It was usually outgunned and outsized by everything it went up against, but still managed to leave a mark. It saved the day in the battle of Antarctica enabling the discovery of Atlantis.
Do I think it was a better ship? Of course not, it was totally inferior (and ugly). But it made for a better story. For a good portion of the show it was all we had and it was barely enough, but it became more of a character than a tool. The moment the Prometheus was blasted in half was just as serious as any character death (and not just because of Pendergast). It was a huge blow to us and let the viewers know the Ori were a real threat.
Earth’s first
The 302 would like a word 😅
That doesn’t count! It didn’t work!
It did, for very short periods of time. And from that, we got the epic scene where they opened a window through a ship’s shield for a
Death Star runshot at Anubis.Well the 303 worked!
Sure, with a salvage hyperdrive from an Al’kesh. At least until that broke down and they had to upend an entire planet’s beliefs to get home. The original hyperdrive had the same problem as the one from the 302. And the working one came from the Asgard.
Idk. I just couldn’t get over the captain doing his best James Carrey Kirk impression.
Earth: Give us things!
Asgard: lol no
Earth: Give us things!
Asgard: Give back the things you stole!
Earth:
sudoWe saved your skinny butts from the Replicators! Give us thing!Asgard: Okay.
Asgard: Aight imma head out. We’ll leave the light on for you.
I really like the Nostromo from Alien (1979). The Icarus II from Sunshine (2007) is pretty cool, too.
Yay! The Nostromo finally gets a mention. The attention to detail in the ship is amazing and a whole new set of warning symbols were designed for it.
