What is your favourite sci-fi/irl spacecraft, and why?

IRL: The Dragon v2. Sooo shiny O_O

Sci-fi: Probably this, the Abaddon battleship from EVE Online. I just love how robust it is and its glorious laser spam ^^

Oh, and if I may nominate a second one, Sidonia is pretty nice too (the big one, not the generic mech):

How is it that I've been playing since 0.22, and have missed this thread until now? :P The one and only answer is the Enterprise! Specifically, the Constitution class refit. Designed in 1979, and based off of a design from 1965, she's a timeless beauty! Every contour and angle is without flaw. The white hull really sticks out, and makes it unique among other ships bearing the same name.

Coming in second and third are the Enterprise D and Galactica, respectively. :cool:

IRL? The Soyuz, hands-down. Even the Americans have to rent seats on it to get to the ISS. Plus, the R-7 family are pretty much the most beautiful lifters ever built.

In sci-fi, I will always have a special place in my heart for the Enyo, got my first kills in it and prefer it over pretty much any other Assault Frigate.

Ogame anyone ?

Battle ship

Both the old and new styles had/have great spaceships.

Which style did you guys prefer in Ogame ? (If you've played the old one ^^)

Here's the RIP in both styles :

New

I prefer the old one... Just like most ships and defense guns, the relook was a mistake IMO...

What a great game ! I spent years on it... It was actually the only massive-multiplayer "management" game with a good balance between the units... (Too bad the game was ruined with the antimatter...)

As far as IRL spacecraft go, being french my favorite has to be Ariane 5 (and 4....can't decide wich one) !

I'm impatient to see Falcon Heavy and SLS though. Dragon V2 looks like a sci-fi craft, so i'm also excited for it !
