The Yggdrasill from Hyperion.
The one from The Fountain was kinda similar. It was unique enough to stick with me over the years anyway.
I don't know if Ringworld really counts as a ship but I loved that too. The Out Of Band 2 from A Fire Upon The Deep seemed like it would be pretty baddass. Or the alien ship from Rendezvous with Rama.
Certainly not the Event Horizon π
βIβll 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!β
Hard sci-fi: The Rocinante
Floppy sci-f: The A-Wing
The U.S.S. Enterprise, "NCC-1701, no bloody A, B, C or D!"
The Millennium Falcon ofc.
Followed closely by The Razor Crest.
I always liked the Nostromo's design.
The Slave I
Sorry I meant: Boba Fett's Ship π
How the fuck could they not even give it a new name?! One of my favorites as well.
The Ebon Hawk
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.
The lexx of course it's the most powerful ship in both universes.
Odyssee class!
Discovery (2001) and Leonov (2010).
Or, from system shock 2, the Von Braun and the Rickenbacker.
... you know what, they're spaceships, so all of them.
The Nomandy from Mass Effect
Francisco Franco's PM, Luis Carrero Blanco's car turning him into a Good Fascistβ’ and Spain's first astronaut
Despite the many, many problems with the show, I'd say The Lexx.
SDF1
dune's guild heighliner. there are many depictions of it, but the general idea is awesome (an enormous tube)
Mega maid. Commence suction.
Rebel Blockade Runner, mostly because it's the first ship you really see in A New Hope and my first interaction with the Star Wars franchise as a kid in the early 90s.
Lakon Spaceways Diamondback Explorer. Hands down. Like a little cicada with huge fucking engines hanging out of it. Cozy way to map the galaxy.
The Phalanx
Since Roci is everywhere...
Do Gundam count? Aerial or Quiet Zero are pretty baller
It's "favorite," not "OP," so sure. I like the ST film Birds of Prey, just for sheer awesome aesthetic.
The wedge ships belonging to the Chitzas in the books from the "quantum series" by Douglas Phillips. they were bad ass ships ran by badass little porcupine dudes. They were able to travel beyond the visible universe in hours. The books were so much fun.
