From the best damn Sci-Fi show there is:

Babylon_5_Starfury_Tribute_by_Gungho3D.jpg

The Starfury actually is a space fighter concept that at least attempts to be somewhat feasible in real life. I'd guess that the design would, in fact, work pretty well as some sort of orbital tug and/or construction vehicle (minus the guns, of course :D ).

I have decided what to do with Blender and Unity. I'll be back later, with a bunch of crap from Avatar, Mass Effect, and Halo. Maybe Space Battleship Yamoto.

The corporation's can go die in a ditch, as far as I'm concerned.

Ha, ha, ha, ha - excellent! That's the spirit we all need!

The only issue is big windows in front of the ship. There are a lot of space junk flying at speeds 28500+ km/h (all sizes), and in case of frontal aproach - it could be collision with summ speed around 57000 km/h . This could be very unhappy day for anyone, who sits inside this cabin with cup of coffee =P

To play devil's advocate, what could they use for the front of the ship that wouldn't be toast after an impact at those speeds?

The Leonov from 2010. It looks good and has a relative realistic design.

The owner of those pictures doesn't know how to write and probably should stay away from cyrillic fonts.
