Best spaceship?

[Whitestar]

I dunno if this has been mentioned yet, but I'm a huge fan of the original U.S.S. Enterprise model, the NCC-1701, cause it had such a strong appeal and was so crazy... I mean, it had parts from a flying saucer, some rocket boosters with glowing red things, and an antenna, and what?? that's popular?? hah

That's funny because I never found the Enterprise design appealing at all, particularly the saucer section because it represented the stereotypical sci-fi starship design.

I mean, my favorite design for a spacecraft ever has to be the millenium falcon, because it came at a time in science fiction when it was so easy to make pretty looking space thingies, like an X-wing, or whatever else was pretty from Battlestar, or whatever... But the Falcon took on an enormous role as a setting and transportation in some of the most famous science fiction movies of all time, and the thing was ugly!!! I just find it amazing that craft like the millenium falcon can be just as appealing, if not more-so than some fast looking thing like a A, Y, or X wing. -Doggyforce.

I agree that the Millenium Falcon is not a pretty ship but it certainly had character. In fact, in the Empire Strikes Back nearly all of the characters are fully developed, even the Falcon herself when she refused to operate efficiently during times of crisis. Hilarious! By the way, did you know that George Lucas got the inspiration of the design of the Falcon via a hamburger? Interesting huh?

im not a big star trek fan but it would have to be the starship enterprise, or maybe the falcon, or the tardis choices choices

no wait the best space ship are sayin space pods (not sci-fi i gues but still i like them)

I really liked the Earth Force/Shadow Tech Destroyers, they was some mean looking ships.

Yeah, especially the beams they shot out. Now they were tough ships. Wonder how a one-on-one with a Minbari cruiser would have gone...?

Always like the Big green Romulan Warbirds out of Star Trek TNG, purely because they were big and green. Pretty impractial design from what I've read, they were just designed to look mean.

The Kingon Vor'cha class battlecruisers looked pretty nifty too

Shows how stupidly big the Executor class Star Destroter is

I've always loved the original Starship Enterprise® because it was the first Hollywood Sci-Fi craft not to have a pointy nose & tailfins, with rocket exhaust shooting out the back!
Propulsion using electromagnetic fields — pretty advanced stuff for TV Sci-Fi at the time!

While I love Serenity's character, the vessel from Firefly that took my breath away is the Alliance Cruiser!

this is a britty scary one i like it

Yes I like the alliance cruiser, bit cumbersome though.
I have always said Liberator from Blakes 7 is my favorite but I am inclined to add Serenity to my fav list. Its not the prettiest ship and certinally not the fastest either but it has some cool moves and it just seems to have a warm feeling about it. It has moved up there with Liberator on my fav list.
