The yamato had squads of fighter jets, taking off and landing; while the enterprise only had a couple shuttle crafts.... so how can the tomato be smaller?
TBF, it is because most Sci-Fi ships either aren't using solid fuel as their primary propulsion, have extremely efficient and effective solid fuel propulsion if they do OR they're built outside of the atmosphere and aren't intended to go back into atmosphere, so they don't need nearly as much fuel as an IRL ship would.
@@ParagonFury you have that backwards, out of atmosphere ships will tend to be mostly fuel. Atmospheric drag has nothing to do with it. As for being "extremely efficient " I did some math a while ago and found that for the Enterprise D to reach full impulse speed then full stop would require something like 7,000 tons of antimatter and of course 7,000 tons of matter to annihilate with assuming 100% efficient transformation of all that energy into propulsion. Including the bulk of the resulting energy that as far as we know simply can't be used. This ignores both real world efficiency issues AND the fact that canonically the ship uses fusion reactors for impulse power not antimatter. I didn't feel like working out how much fuel they would need at some theoretical 100% efficient fusion reactor. But it would be some orders of magnitude higher than 14,000 tons amd several times the ships 5,000,000 ton mass.
To really give a sense of perspective to how big Star Destroyers are, the USG Ishimura from Dead Space is about the same size. So, for those who’ve played Dead Space and are fans of Star Wars, you know how expansive a ship that size can be.
I've seen many of these size comparison clips, but I really like the way you kept including people and buildings by the side of each for continual perspective. Thanks!
So happy to see the Starfury from Babylon 5, the Eagle from Space:1999, The Starfighter from Buck Rogers, the Milano from Guardians of the Galaxy, and the Serenity from Firefly in here!

@@Burninator353 But you only need ONE standard Cube to conquer a planet. The IoM can't seem to take a planet without a fleet of dozens or hundred of ships. Also The IoM's vessel are tremendous in size but also tremendously primitive compared to other franchises.
@@DocWolph One of the most "Oh Shit..." inducing moments in Voyager (before they killed all tension the Borg had by making the Queen little more than a mustache twirling baddie) was when 15 cubes just dropped out of Transwarp behind Voyager. Seeing that one of those things could tank a fleet of starships, and then seeing 15 of them roll up on you when you're alone... I'm sure everyone had to do some serious underwear cleaning that day.
The very first appearance of the cube was intimidating. Aside from b1tch-slapping the Enterprise-D without really trying, the whole design basically says "we don't even give a f**k -- warpfield streamlining is for the weak!". And then outrunning the E-D anyway. Of all the things in the universe Q could have chosen to scare Picard, the Borg got the nod.
THANKS FOR POSTING! My favorite ship here is the Argo aka & called Yamato from Star Blazers of 1979. Something NOBODY ever gets right is the size of a Battlestar. In the original Battlestar Galactica books written by Glen A Larson each single Battlestar represented the collective might of an entire planet. Each Battlestar would be larger than Darth Vader's Super Star Destroyer in The Empire Strikes Back. According to a conversation between Starbuck, Apollo and Adama it would take an experienced hiker years to walk through each room on the Galactica, and the Galactica had hundreds of decks and thousands of Viper Fighters and a crew of hundreds of thousands. The loss of any single Battlestar was a catastrophe. They had to scale it down for TV. The rest is history.
Everyone after the previous vessel is like "we got a bigger ship than you lot" until the Borg shows up with a cube and says "RESISTANCE IS FUTILE", then everyone else is like "yeah, nah, we're outta here".

Am I the only one who’s a little annoyed at Abrams’ whole “everything in my Star Trek is bigger and faster and shinier, and my Enteprise is bigger than a galaxy class lol” thing?
That whole ship has serious scaling issues. For the most part, its features make it look like its the same size as the original design, but JJ got the scaling completely wrong for the shuttlebay which results in the ship apparently being bigger than a Galaxy-class.
@@Helbore actually there’s a video on the JJverse Enterprise’s correct size. It actually details that JJ said the Enterprise was closer to the original’s size. It was Paramount that came up with the 700+ meter scale. Edit: CBS came up with the size and heres the link to the vid ua-cam.com/video/yGFzEBps4hM/v-deo.html
@@iyadmajdi and to fit in the massive shuttle bay set, yes. In ST Beyond, we do get a better interior match to the new size though, such as the high windows around the saucer edge. But yes, it basically got doubled from 366 m to nearly twice that.
Don't you get annoyed with every "trekkie" that thinks an exploration / science ship ( enterptise 1701 ) will bully / destroy Warships from 2 different cultures that have better tech ( cloaking and disruptor weapons ) from warrior cultures ( Romulan and Klingon ) ?

Great vid! Just needs a few more to make it a perfect vid; the Liberator, Moya, Excalibur, Andromeda Ascendant, Enterprise NX-01, Voyager (Intrepid Class), Klingon Bird of Prey, Romulan Warbird, Ferengi Marauder, and the Borg Sphere. I know there are others, but they're just the ones I'd like to see included. ;-)
Great comparison, however you forgot one of the most iconic ships that everyone forgets about the mother ship from Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Keep up the great work.
I tried to add all the ship based on the request and comments made on my previous animation, I may considered doing ver 3 and add Close Encounter, heck I'm a big fan of the classic.
@@k1productions87 Closed Encounter starships movie would be using too much electric generator to power up Soo many LEDS lights of different types of colors of a 6 foot wide models scale version of the movie , and probably be using a semi- trailer truck to pull a big generator and including the just 1 big main Space Ship out of several types of smaller 🚀 Spaceships and including the Electric company guy with his truck who were sunburned by spaceship at NIGHT ‼️ .
I notice Farscape is either blatantly ignored or overlooked on these videos. Farscape has amazing ships from Crichton's module to the Peacekeeper command carrier to the Zebanian to the Scarran Decimater. Farscape is awesome and deserves to be included!
Even if some disagree with Moya, there are still plenty of ships from Farscape worth being included. But Moya deserves to be included as she is indeed a spaceship...a biomechonoid. I've seen other videos from this channel comparing flying ships include living creatures such as Falcor from Neverending Story and Drogon from Game of Thrones. Gee, if living creatures can be included on comparisons with nonliving vessels than Moya and Talyn both deserve to be included here. Just seems Farscape gets left out. Unless it's just that Moya is so fantastic that there is no comparison. Maybe Farscape ships just are so much better there is no competition or comparison.
@@kingmasterlord you know on some of the other videos on this channel living beings are compared to other vessels. There's Falcor the dragon from Neverending Story and Drogon from Game of Thrones for example in a comparison of flying vessels. If dragons, which are alive can be compared to planes and aircraft than Moya should and can be included against other ships. Farscape does am also have a few other shops that could be included if not Moya and Talyn. Crichton's module, the Peacekeeper prowler, Marauder, command carrier, Scarran Decimator, Zenetan pirate ships, the Peacekeeper Zelbanian...etc. All worthy to be included.
Nothing, seriously nothing compares to the Millennium Falcon 💪💪 Super cool video!! Especialy like how real ships are in there with the 'not yet' real ones
It's so great to see Space Battleship Yamato get some recognition. Just yesterday, I was across town and stopped into an Anime store that I'd been meaning to check out for a while. They didn't have a single piece of Space Battleship Yamato merchandise. When I asked about it, they'd never even heard of the series. Sadly, this is the response I almost always get when I go somewhere that claims to specialize in anime. Ya basic!
I'm still a big fan of Robotech even though getting the merchandise isn't that easy anymore. I haven't watch Space Battleship Yamato but several fan pointed out why I didn't add it in my first video, so the fan has spoken and won.
@@Halfscreen A big part of the problem is that the series hasn't been given much of any promotion by Funimation or Crunchyroll. At one point, there were plans to air the 2012 reboot series on Cartoon Network, but nothing ever came of it. For decades, the distributor responsible for Star Blazers in North America and Europe was Voyager Entertainment, which was nothing more than one guy operating out of a tiny office in New Jersey. The result was the withering of the brand in the West down to only die hard fans. Even though it's now in the hands of people who know how to support the series, they appear to consider the damage to already be done, and aren't doing anything to repair the situation. It's still big in Japan, though.
@@WyldstaarStudios it's one of those "If I ever win the powerball" dreams of mine to do a Star Blazers movie (we do not speak of the trainwreck that is the Japanese live-action version)
@@Grey_Shard My "If I ever win the powerball" dream was to buy the rights to SBY and remake the original series using modern animation. Then in 2012 they went and did it, which shocked me in the extreme. I was even more shocked when it actually turned out to be great, and not a complete disaster.
3:49 Yamato seen here still uses specifications as it was designed by Leiji Matsumoto and not 2199 remake. Lenghts of 285 meters (Original IJN Yamato + 30 meters of rocket aft (where Tachyon particles leave the ship , pushing it forward and fast)). There's also the other ship with the similiar size also designed by the same person. but with aftcastle of old GAlleon. called Arcadia. 3:58 In Star Trek universe. there's another Federation ship with same class as Enterprise that's also named Yamato.
I'd have loved to have seen the UNSC Infinity (Halo) in this comparison, she and her sister ships were originally built as humanities lifeboats (so they were freaking huuuge) if the Covenant ever glassed Earth but were converted to capital warships at the end of the Human-Covenant war.
I love the Viper from BS Galactica the Starfighter from Buck Rogers and the Eagle one from Space: 1999. BUT my favorite is the Millenium Falcon. Nicely done, THX
There are a lot of non-NASA parts in it (mostly Russian, but i'm not sure if only). I found wiki pages for all of them: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_of_the_International_Space_Station#:~:text=The%20ISS%20is%20made%20up,one%20European%20module%20(Columbus). And this is what google says: ''It is a multinational collaborative project involving five participating space agencies: NASA (United States), Roscosmos (Russia), JAXA (Japan), ESA (Europe), and CSA (Canada). The ownership and use of the space station is established by intergovernmental treaties and agreements.''
Using SpaceX Star Ship as engines I'm betting the Enterprise could be built in orbit and all the required tech could catch up in time and be fitted when it exists ??
@@ericaarseth7678 It's a multi-ownership item. Technically, the ISS is jointly owned by the USA, Russia, The EU, Japan and Canada but legally each of these are only responsible for the individual components they provide. So really there is no single owner, much like how a corporation is owned by the individual shareholders. And no it's not a starship but it is included here for scale.
I would have loved to see the Defiant and Voyager in there (if for no other reason than I think people would be surprised how big they actually were), but I'm glad to see the TARDIS included. Oddly, it's the smallest ship here, but has the largest internal volume.
The Defiant had about 4 maybe 5 decks so it should've been maybe 3 or 4 times the size of say the Millinium Falcon ' it had a standing crew count of 50 Officers , so at least that size for comparison .
I recall Defiant being somewhere from 120 to 180 meters on various Trek sites, with the general consensus being that the 120 is the more likely, depending on which VFX errors you choose to ignore.
Nice selection. I would have loved to see more Macross, like the Macross Quarter, and more Warhammer 40k, like ships on the Imperial Navy, or at least those with consistent dimensions. Also some ships from Dan Dare! Still a very good video!
I was hoping to see the "Event Horizon" as I worked on the model for the movie. I'd have thought it would be one of the biggest space ships there. Also don't forget the "Valley Forge" from silent running my favourite Sci-Fi movie.
This is great. Though you realize you can't please everyone.....you still should have included a Saturn V rocket. Putting it next to the 2001 Space odyssey Discovery 1 would have been great, since they are both the same size.
Really awesome ships here! I was surprised that the Super Star Destroyer (the Executor from Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi), Spaceball One from Spaceballs, and even both Death Stars weren't included in this video! Spaceball One measures 11 kilometers (6.8 miles) long, which would make a Boeing 747 Jumbo Jet look like a mosquito compared to its size!

as much as I appreciate your inclusion of Macross, Yamato, and Cowboy Bebop, it'd be really great see other anime ships too.

Am I the only one who’s a little annoyed at Abrams’ whole “everything in my Star Trek is bigger and faster and shinier, and my Enteprise is bigger than a galaxy class lol” thing?
Mr JJ destroyed Star Wars and Star Trek. He's totally pathetic.
That whole ship has serious scaling issues. For the most part, its features make it look like its the same size as the original design, but JJ got the scaling completely wrong for the shuttlebay which results in the ship apparently being bigger than a Galaxy-class.
@@Helbore actually there’s a video on the JJverse Enterprise’s correct size. It actually details that JJ said the Enterprise was closer to the original’s size. It was Paramount that came up with the 700+ meter scale.
Edit: CBS came up with the size and heres the link to the vid ua-cam.com/video/yGFzEBps4hM/v-deo.html
@@iyadmajdi and to fit in the massive shuttle bay set, yes. In ST Beyond, we do get a better interior match to the new size though, such as the high windows around the saucer edge.
But yes, it basically got doubled from 366 m to nearly twice that.
Don't you get annoyed with every "trekkie" that thinks an exploration / science ship ( enterptise 1701 ) will bully / destroy Warships from 2 different cultures that have better tech ( cloaking and disruptor weapons ) from warrior cultures ( Romulan and Klingon ) ?
JJ actually got me reinterested in the series as it actually showed "humans" . We get dirty , sweat , bleed and make bad decisions . Yet work hard to make things "right" against impossible odds .
Roddenberry's star trek was sanitized and sterile . 3rd season of orginal / the creature feature of the week .
*You might want to read up on good old Gene . What we now call sexual harasment and rape was Gene's favorite thing to do to trek groupies ( young teenagers ) while he was married . He was also a communist yet never shared his wealth to mere commoners* Why do you think orginal died so quickly with TV excutives ?
A society where federation councilor has the same "everything" as the averge "joe / jane " makes you wonder why would you put in the effort ? Self pride ? Self satifaction ?
Sorry this goes against everything in human evolution , competition is normal . We do it for the best food , housing and quality of life to get the best mate (s) and best chance for our kid (s)
Socialism/ Communism has not worked on Earth but will it will in Space ?
"Thundering Asteroids!" You did the SDF-1! Gloval would be proud.
Captain! ...no smoking on the bridge.
You include Macross,Firefly and Yamato,so nice of you...exelent vídeo
Yes, thanks
Love these videos , there's just one ship I would have like have seen included and that is Moya the leviathan from Farscape 😊
Liking the appearance of the puddle jumper!
3:25 Awesome that you've gone and included the Normandy from Mass Effect...but the ship model you've got there is the SR-1, not the SR-2
I was gonna say the same
I also was goibg to say the same....
To add, both ships are similar in design but the SR2 is like 2X the size I think.
I'm also pretty sure that the "UNSC Destroyer" is actually a Prowler.
@@vegarose4638 yeah if I remember correctly the SR2 is actually based off the original design, but due to budget and the military needs, they scaled the project down and cut the size and functions of the sr1
@@vegarose4638 It's a destroyer. The Prowler looks totally different.
Thanks for the great animation! Really helps to visualise how big the ships are compared to each other
No problem!
Really nice video, well done.
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@Halfscreen There was a similar video but that disappeared from UA-cam.
@@josephhaywardjr8502 I think Metaball studio created something similar.
@@Halfscreen In all honesty i just wanted to see the Valkyrie from Avatar.
@@josephhaywardjr8502 Seem like everybody has their favorite.
thanks for adding Macross ships
No problem!
Would have been great to see a Gun Star from 'The Last Starfighter' in there.
Maybe in version 3.0.
And the Kodan Command Ship
My first thought
Or the R9A Arrowhead from R-Type (with the attached Force) would be super cool
And the "Aliens" Dropship, but since Sulacco is already there I guess it's enough.
Great vid! Just needs a few more to make it a perfect vid; the Liberator, Moya, Excalibur, Andromeda Ascendant, Enterprise NX-01, Voyager (Intrepid Class), Klingon Bird of Prey, Romulan Warbird, Ferengi Marauder, and the Borg Sphere. I know there are others, but they're just the ones I'd like to see included. ;-)
Noted! It really depend if I can find a good 3D model since I typically won't used low polygon 3D model.
Beautiful renderings on all these ships! Nicely done.
Glad you like them!
AND THE DEATH STAR? great video!! 🤙
It's on my latest update.

YAY Eagle One representing! Nice, I'd like to see the Event Horizon maybe in the future.
The future is here.
ua-cam.com/video/ixLRm3_8Mac/v-deo.html
People always forget the Hammerhead from Space: Above and Beyond...
I knew the crew was rattling around inside the Bebop, but I didn't think it was the size of a capship!
Happy to see Valkyrie and Avalon...
This is cool! Nice work!
Thank you! Cheers!
I love that you have every single ship I love. Plus they are in color. This hass been the comparison for me. Thank you.
Glad you like them!
Great comparison, however you forgot one of the most iconic ships that everyone forgets about the mother ship from Close Encounters of the Third Kind. Keep up the great work.
I tried to add all the ship based on the request and comments made on my previous animation, I may considered doing ver 3 and add Close Encounter, heck I'm a big fan of the classic.
@@Halfscreen Thank you
@@christopherquinn1879 No problem
Has anyone made a 3D model of that ship yet?
@@k1productions87 Closed Encounter starships movie would be using too much electric generator to power up Soo many LEDS lights of different types of colors of a 6 foot wide models scale version of the movie , and probably be using a semi- trailer truck to pull a big generator and including the just 1 big main Space Ship out of several types of smaller 🚀 Spaceships and including the Electric company guy with his truck who were sunburned by spaceship at NIGHT ‼️ .
It would be nice if you could include Moya (Farscape), next time.
I notice Farscape is either blatantly ignored or overlooked on these videos. Farscape has amazing ships from Crichton's module to the Peacekeeper command carrier to the Zebanian to the Scarran Decimater.
Farscape is awesome and deserves to be included!
space whales are not starships even if they're capable of FTL
Even if some disagree with Moya, there are still plenty of ships from Farscape worth being included. But Moya deserves to be included as she is indeed a spaceship...a biomechonoid. I've seen other videos from this channel comparing flying ships include living creatures such as Falcor from Neverending Story and Drogon from Game of Thrones. Gee, if living creatures can be included on comparisons with nonliving vessels than Moya and Talyn both deserve to be included here.
Just seems Farscape gets left out. Unless it's just that Moya is so fantastic that there is no comparison. Maybe Farscape ships just are so much better there is no competition or comparison.
@@kingmasterlord you know on some of the other videos on this channel living beings are compared to other vessels. There's Falcor the dragon from Neverending Story and Drogon from Game of Thrones for example in a comparison of flying vessels. If dragons, which are alive can be compared to planes and aircraft than Moya should and can be included against other ships. Farscape does am also have a few other shops that could be included if not Moya and Talyn. Crichton's module, the Peacekeeper prowler, Marauder, command carrier, Scarran Decimator, Zenetan pirate ships, the Peacekeeper Zelbanian...etc. All worthy to be included.
look y'all I'm not against farscape or moya, but I don't see lexx or the tree-ships from tenchi muyo or anything
Would have loved to see a few more from Stargate and a model of Babylon 5. But brilliant video, thank you.
Next time and thanks for watching!
This is so awesome! Thank you.
Glad you liked it! There also an update version.

Nothing, seriously nothing compares to the Millennium Falcon 💪💪 Super cool video!!
Especialy like how real ships are in there with the 'not yet' real ones
It's so great to see Space Battleship Yamato get some recognition. Just yesterday, I was across town and stopped into an Anime store that I'd been meaning to check out for a while. They didn't have a single piece of Space Battleship Yamato merchandise. When I asked about it, they'd never even heard of the series. Sadly, this is the response I almost always get when I go somewhere that claims to specialize in anime. Ya basic!
I'm still a big fan of Robotech even though getting the merchandise isn't that easy anymore. I haven't watch Space Battleship Yamato but several fan pointed out why I didn't add it in my first video, so the fan has spoken and won.
@@Halfscreen A big part of the problem is that the series hasn't been given much of any promotion by Funimation or Crunchyroll. At one point, there were plans to air the 2012 reboot series on Cartoon Network, but nothing ever came of it. For decades, the distributor responsible for Star Blazers in North America and Europe was Voyager Entertainment, which was nothing more than one guy operating out of a tiny office in New Jersey. The result was the withering of the brand in the West down to only die hard fans. Even though it's now in the hands of people who know how to support the series, they appear to consider the damage to already be done, and aren't doing anything to repair the situation. It's still big in Japan, though.
@@WyldstaarStudios it's one of those "If I ever win the powerball" dreams of mine to do a Star Blazers movie (we do not speak of the trainwreck that is the Japanese live-action version)
@@Grey_Shard The live-action version is good though. Certainly the best live-action Anime adaptation.
@@Grey_Shard My "If I ever win the powerball" dream was to buy the rights to SBY and remake the original series using modern animation. Then in 2012 they went and did it, which shocked me in the extreme. I was even more shocked when it actually turned out to be great, and not a complete disaster.
I’d like to see how the Transformer’s Ark and Nemesis compare in size to all of these
And their spaceships from films)
3:49 Yamato seen here still uses specifications as it was designed by Leiji Matsumoto and not 2199 remake. Lenghts of 285 meters (Original IJN Yamato + 30 meters of rocket aft (where Tachyon particles leave the ship , pushing it forward and fast)).
There's also the other ship with the similiar size also designed by the same person. but with aftcastle of old GAlleon. called Arcadia.
3:58 In Star Trek universe. there's another Federation ship with same class as Enterprise that's also named Yamato.
Yes I remember that one too
Gorgeous rendering of Nostromo
This video is the epitome of the Shen Comix "I'm doing a thousand calculations per second and they're all wrong" meme
I'd have loved to have seen the UNSC Infinity (Halo) in this comparison, she and her sister ships were originally built as humanities lifeboats (so they were freaking huuuge) if the Covenant ever glassed Earth but were converted to capital warships at the end of the Human-Covenant war.
Love the blend of real and fictional craft
How wonderful is to see real spacecrafts among the fantasy ones?
I wanted to add some real spacecrafts to get a sense of scale.
Rogers. Buck Rogers. Right? Roger. Oh, Roger? Buck Roger. Yes, Buck. Roger. So Buck Roger then. No, Buck Rogers.
I love the Viper from BS Galactica the Starfighter from Buck Rogers and the Eagle one from Space: 1999. BUT my favorite is the Millenium Falcon. Nicely done, THX
Thanks for watching Markus.
Great video! although I am kind of disappointed that you didn’t do the gigantic ships from Star Wars and halo
Maybe Next time!
I hope because I’d really like to see big ships like the Long night of solace and the Executor
@@Mae1strom Bigger is Better.
@@Mae1strom I probably do another comparison in six months, this time with bigger ship.
I missed the Imperial SSD Executor with its whopping 16 km, and of course the two Death Stars that are still much larger!
Fabulous presentation. One question: is the ISS considered a NASA vessel? Just curious. Again, well done.
There are a lot of non-NASA parts in it (mostly Russian, but i'm not sure if only). I found wiki pages for all of them: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Assembly_of_the_International_Space_Station#:~:text=The%20ISS%20is%20made%20up,one%20European%20module%20(Columbus).
And this is what google says: ''It is a multinational collaborative project involving five participating space agencies: NASA (United States), Roscosmos (Russia), JAXA (Japan), ESA (Europe), and CSA (Canada). The ownership and use of the space station is established by intergovernmental treaties and agreements.''
Using SpaceX Star Ship as engines I'm betting the Enterprise could be built in orbit and all the required tech could catch up in time and be fitted when it exists ??
It most certainly is not a "starship"
@@ericaarseth7678 Don't tell that to Elon Musk... =D
@@ericaarseth7678 It's a multi-ownership item. Technically, the ISS is jointly owned by the USA, Russia, The EU, Japan and Canada but legally each of these are only responsible for the individual components they provide. So really there is no single owner, much like how a corporation is owned by the individual shareholders.
And no it's not a starship but it is included here for scale.
It’s like my entire childhood in one video
Thanks for watching.
Nice👍 please add in the ship from the last star fighter its a classic
I had always imagined SDF-1 Macross to be bigger.
it's a shame they didn't add the later Macross ships as they're much bigger
Considering that the damn thing contains a city, you'd think so.
Somewhere in Robotech I recall 4,000 feet mentioned, which is 1,200 meters as noted here.
I would have loved to see the Defiant and Voyager in there (if for no other reason than I think people would be surprised how big they actually were), but I'm glad to see the TARDIS included. Oddly, it's the smallest ship here, but has the largest internal volume.
I had a few complaint about not having TARDIS in my previous animation, so its a must in this new updated version.
The Defiant had about 4 maybe 5 decks so it should've been maybe 3 or 4 times the size of say the Millinium Falcon ' it had a standing crew count of 50 Officers , so at least that size for comparison .
I recall Defiant being somewhere from 120 to 180 meters on various Trek sites, with the general consensus being that the 120 is the more likely, depending on which VFX errors you choose to ignore.
And the Asgard ships too...
I think it would be really interesting to include a star trek shuttlecraft and/or runabout.
Nice selection. I would have loved to see more Macross, like the Macross Quarter, and more Warhammer 40k, like ships on the Imperial Navy, or at least those with consistent dimensions. Also some ships from Dan Dare!
Still a very good video!
Excellent work!
Many thanks!
My pleasure
"Full color models! Very nice! 👍🏽" (James)
Thanks! 👍
Thank you for so clearly demonstrating the supremacy of Star Trek.
Thanks Cyxh.
Anyone can add ten zeros behind the made up number, can't save it from being so lacking in detail though.
The true supremacy is in how cool, sleek and iconic the ships look. The Normandy is the only competition IMO.
I’d like to see Thunderbird 3, 5, Starbug and Red Dwarf please.
Maybe in version 3.

I was hoping to see the "Event Horizon" as I worked on the model for the movie. I'd have thought it would be one of the biggest space ships there. Also don't forget the "Valley Forge" from silent running my favourite Sci-Fi movie.
The event horizon should be in the next update
What about the " 2010," Space Odyssey with Roy Snider from the " JAW," Giant Great White Shark 🦈 movie .
This is great. Though you realize you can't please everyone.....you still should have included a Saturn V rocket. Putting it next to the 2001 Space odyssey Discovery 1 would have been great, since they are both the same size.
True, there are so many ships, I can't really put all of them on my video due to logistic. File size was at least 4 gb.

Typically, I tried to add in all the major ships mentioned in my pervious animation on the comments section.
@@Halfscreen then that says to me you HAVE to do Blake 7 mate.... 😜😎
Did you notice the "Avalon." From "Passengers." It's a straight rip-off of Roj Blake's "Liberator."
@@swagmanandy I haven't watched Liberator.
I think the problem with the Liberator is that its size is never really clear, and certainly never stated. It’s certainly big though.
as much as I appreciate your inclusion of Macross, Yamato, and Cowboy Bebop, it'd be really great see other anime ships too. I know it is a minor anime, but I'd love to see how Bairal Jin and Ganda Rowa from Space Runaway Ideon compare with these ships.
Another interesting one would be Jupitris from Z gundam.
I used to remember watching a ton of anime back when I was younger and they still give me fond memory.
Bebop and Yamato side by side.... GLORIOUS! 🏆
