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.

    The SR-1 was definitely smaller, but to me it didn’t feel intimate at all. Felt like a workplace, not a home. But it’s an awesome ship for sure.

      Yeah that’s fair. With the Ebon Hawk, Stinger Mantis, Serenity, and even something like The Bebop, the whole crew is the people you grow to know and love; there’s a lot of “redshirts” and nobodies on the Normandies. I think you really nailed it with “workplace, not a home”.
