- The current human speed record is shared equally by the trio of astronauts who flew Nasa's Apollo 10 mission. On their way back from a lap around the Moon in 1969, the astronauts' capsule hit a peak of 24,790mph (39,897km/h) relative to planet Earth. But this video does include all spacecraft and spaceships from TV series, Movies, Games, and NASA, which means all real and fictional spaceships.

The Planet Express Ship actually does 0mph, the Dark Matter Reactor moves the universe not the ship.
Same goes for the Star Trek ships (afaik). That's what warping essentially does.
Speed is relative though
@@gelatinocyte6270 - warp drive is shortening the distance between two point. The planet express ship is not warping the distance just moving everything around it.
What's moving, and what's not, is simply a matter of perspective. There‘s this famous joke involving Einstein on a train: "excuse me, when does New York stop at this train?"...
@bmhiscd1 Yes He also looked in to by asking if they have sandwiches in the Future Too. Since He was Hungry at that time.
Gonna be honest, the fact that Spaceballs is seriously mentioned in the video makes me happy
well spaceball 1 never leaves the galaxy so I would say it should be behind stargate
I appreciate same, a tribute to science fiction in all
@@jimskywaker4345 but it's measuring the speed, not the distance
Me too
Nothing beats going plaid.
Imagine doing over a billion times light speed and you're overtaken by a police box.
The police os everywhere.
And it pulls you over to give you a ticket.
the police box gets to the destination 1 million years before it set off
Lmfao...no kidding
Hahahaha
Borg engines are not undefined. They use warp drive technology combined with transwarp corridors.
I was thinking the same thing
Yes....I do Agree Well Piller of Autumn also uses a space warp technology thing or slip space...
Also Battlestar Galactica does not have a measured velocity recorded anywhere. It uses a fold drive system that joins 2 sections of space briefly in Planck time and the ship simply "appears" in another region of space.
It's velocity is actually only limited by it's navigational systems. The Cylons navigation tech is FAR better and they can jump much faster, farther, and with incredible accuracy.
In fact a Cylon Base Star's FTL is so advanced, it can jump from Caprica, to even Earth, and jump nose to nose within meters of an enemy Battlestar.
@@deathstrike the same as the event horizon, that should be the top of the list as well.
It took Galactica 4 years to travel a few star systems from its original home. Pretty darn slow
No, no, no, light speed is too slow. We’re gonna have to go right to ludicrous speed.
Have you not read "hitch hikers" guide to the galaxy?
sir, we have never gone that fast before, i don't know if the ship can take it
Whats the matter, colonel sandurz? Chicken?
They've gone plaid!
Lord Nixon Prepare ship, prep... prepare ship for ludicrous speed!
I just wanna mention for the star trek fans that a cochrane shuttle from star trek voyager was once upgraded in a way that allowed it to go at warp 10. In the star trek universe, this means that they were going so fast that they were everywhere in the universe all at once so technically the speed of the Cochrane shuttle is also infinite. It did have a side effect of causing you to become a lizard and nail the captain and lay eggs so there's that...
Thanks for saving me the time by pointing this one out. I watched that crappy video all the way to the end, waiting for the Delta Flyer to be mentioned. disappointed am I......
It wasn´t the Delta Flyer, it was a Cochrane Shuttle. The worst episode of all Star Trek series. The Delta Flyer wasn´t in the show at that time.
As previously mentioned it wasn't the Delta Flyer. The DF hadn't been built yet. And the whole side effect of knocking up you salamander captain with tadpole babies made people not want to mention it ever again.
@@brucecunningham2944 Damn bro a crew and a captain turning into lizards and then mating is truly amazing to watch💀💀😳😳
@@corrupted4726 I recently rewatched it just to give it another chance and... No. But hey if that's your thing Im glad you enjoyed it.
Event Horizon has a gravity drive that folds space, so essentially has infinite speed as well, and since it's one of the coolest ship designs, I suggest adding it here.
also, Spacing Guild Heighliner. Travel time to anywhere = 0.
Star Trek Discovery with the mycelial drive and the Invictus from the new Foundation series also fold space to achieve nearly instantaneous travel. This video is not accurate.
@@jackc7162 Discovery still has to move.... Folds don't have to move.
@c4tubo by this thought the Back to the future DeLorean is even faster than the Event Horizon. Since it can traverse distance without having to move through time at all.
Displacement has no velocity, since the time metric is zero there is no measurable quality to it beyond the distance. It isn't infinite, it just is.
@@jimmyofthesea1883 Travelling back in time by even a single second without compensating for external motion like planetary rotation, galactic orbit, solar orbit, and the universe's expansion would leave the Delorean in the emptiness of space.
You can quibble about Newtonian versus quantum motion, but folding to move a ship billions of kilometers qualifies as motion and speed.
Of the 4 fastest, 3 are from comedies, and the top two are British. So if Humanity is going to ever get to the stars, we'll need a ship powered by the "Monti Python" drive commanded by Captain "Fred Scuttle."
This is the beset post ever.
And the name of the ship has to be: Shipy McShipface
Captain "Fred Scuttle" and at the helm an elk.
... oops. I mean Anne Elk. Mrs. Anne Elk.
. .and where is the Liberator (which I guess should match the fastest Star Trek 'ship?)
Just for your information: your way of displaying "miles per second" m/s is actually the unit meters per second. So for me as a German who uses the metric system it is meters per second.
I think m/s is correct only m/h is wrong, km/h is ok :)
@@ArkadiuszKurnicki Sorry but no. m/s is meters per second. You are right saying m/h for miles per hour is wrong though as the correct way is mph.
I use both imperial and metric. I will use either depending on what I'm using it for and who I'm using it with. In any case why wasn't the Discovery on that list. I mean the spore drive instantly moves the ship to any point in mapped space. But then is that speed of ship movement or the movement of space time?
i think m/s is meters per second around the world. manufacturers in countries with imperial system has been using mph instead of m/h for ages. that also confuses me at first.
also there is c, which is the speed of light. I don't get why it's xL.
i feel it, i really feel it...
it is 2020, and This is one of the most serious 1st world problem in 1st world.
Why some people use miles ? Just use meters, i beg you...please...
There are so many little mistakes in this video it makes my heart cry
Yeah. I'm an Aliens fan so I noticed right away they spelled Sulaco wrong.
Viper mark VII 24k?
Tie fight ion drive XD big mistake
@@waterskippers They also spelled "Saturn V" wrong hahaha :)
Your tears fill me with joy.
Wait a second .... how can the Cyclon Raider from Battlestar have an FTL drive and be in the slower than light speed category because FTL stands for faster than light ?
Was thinking the same thing.
better question, why is the Voyager so low on the list, have they never heard of Transwarp?
Plus the Cylon Raider doesn't have an FTL drive at all. The _Heavy_ Raider does (the troop ship), but not the fighter.
Same problem with the TIE Fighter. Standard TIEs don't have hyperdrives, and the speed listed isn't realistic usable speed, just a theoretical top speed, out of atmosphere, in a straight line until they run out of fuel.
@@Xantosh82 I think they're just going with standard equipment. Voyager's transwarp drive was experimental.
@@Xantosh82 Voyager is not trans-WARP compatible. they use Trans-WARP coils but first they steal them from the Borg and second the trans-warp network is maintained artificially by the borg. This is the same problem as the Daedalus in the stargate, which in 2-3 days can pass between the pegasus galaxy and the milky way, and it flies so fast that the road that the voyager took in 7 years, use Daedalus abbreviations in 1 day ... but !!! it requires the MPZ module impossible advanced source of ancient energy that only the ancients could create and which MAX 30 was hidden in both galaxies.
Dune Heighliners tie with the Improbability Drive. They have no stated speed limit, and can essentially get from anywhere to anywhere instantly
I was just going to comment the same thing. The Navigators fold space, making two points in space occupy the same point, thereby not even actually moving.
The book and the movie differ in this point. The Navigators predict the path between locations so that there is no objects in the path of the thrust so that the speed can be achieved without destroying the ship. It was like the Nav computer on the Falcon or other hyperdrive ships.
@@daleesi1257 I haven't read Dune in a while, but I have read it a couple times and I could have sworn they stated the highliners did not actually move themselves in a physical sense.
@@jasonwalter2924 They utilized the holtzman engines to achieve instant acceleration to light speed seeming to be in two places at once. "folding space" or travelling - whether it is intended to be read as simply 'speeding up' or somehow teleporting - is not done by navigators nor spice. Navigators steer the course, thread it, etc. using prescient abilities - a 'linear prescience', a focus on the safe path prior to engaging the Holtzman engines to move. They did have to travel, move, traverse through space between one location and the destination thus needing the Navigators from Ix to predict the safest moment or path to engage the engines.
Thats improbable.
Using "L" to signify the speed of light throws me the Hell off. Just use "C" like everyone else.
Actually 'c', not 'C'. ;-)
and m/s not being metters/s doesnt?
@@greenumbrellacorp5744 Yea m/s is meters per second not miles.
Why do we use the letter c for speed of light?
@@cydonianman don't quote me on this but I think it's supposed to mean c for constant. Could be wrong though
The delorean actually runs on a factory internal combustion engine, even said so in the 3rd movie, Mr fusion just powers the time drive, not the ability of the car to move, was kinda the entire plot of the 3rd movie in fact.
Mr Fusion runs the flying system though.
It also doesn't travel through space. Only time (except MAYBE at the end of the third movie).
@@No1sonuk Direct quote from the movie, "Mr Fusion powers the time circuits and the flux capacitor but the internal combustion engine runs on ordinary gasoline, it always has"
@@michaelhamilton6553 I think he omitted the flying system because it wasn't working.
@@milescoburn1845 Honestly it probably wouldn't take much to change that. One show that dealt with that notion to some extent was called 7 Days. The Roswell crash had imparted the government with a great deal of alien tech, and only in modern times had any of it been really made use of. They couldn't get the interstellar drive to work, but they did accidentally make a time machine out of it. Instead of moving the ship faster than light, their drive moved it backward through time at a rate equal to that of its travel through space (roughly). So, it would seem to outside observers as if the thing had practically teleported, and since it traveled close to the speed of light in normal space otherwise, time dilation would make the trip feel instantaneous to the occupants, as well.
.
But, they couldn't figure it out in the show, and only managed limited time travel 7 days into the past.
.
It should be possible to do something similar with the Flux Capacitor.
It's weird to say that the Galactica has an FTL speed since the FTLs in the BSG universe don't make the ship go fast, they just fold space in half and poke a hole through point A and B and send the ship through that (which is essentially just teleporting the ship from one point to another without any change in speed).
именно так ! абсолютно с вами согласен.
Дальность технологий кобола определяется в вычислительной мощности ориентирования.
Фактически можно прыгнуть в : Ебеня, к черту на рога, туда куда макар телят не пас... arse end of nowhere...
Но не вернуться банально потерявшись.
Одна из героинь Сериала насколько я помню дважды совершила слепой прыжок (один из прыжков был совершен по координатам навеяным сном,второй вообще просто наугад)
@@asadanax exactly ! absolutely agree with you.
The range of cobol technologies is determined by the computing power of orienteering.
In fact, you can jump into: Ebenya, to hell with the horns, where Makar calves do not pass ... arse end of nowhere ...
But do not return corny lost.
One of the heroines of the Series, as far as I remember, made a blind jump twice (one of the jumps was made in the coordinates inspired by a dream, the second was generally just random). google translate says, not sure how accurate it is
It took Galactica 4 years to travel just a few star systems from its original home. Not fast at all.
@@electrictroy2010
1. Galactica took four years to *FIND* Earth, a planet that was, at the beginning of the series, little more than a legend. We have no idea what the total distance they covered was or if they were even in the same galaxy by the end of the show.
2. It's FTL not being fast is sort of my point. It doesn't accelerate the ship, it instantaneously teleports it from one point to another with no change in its speed.
Sad that Destiny (Stargate Universe) wasnt mentioned.
The Death Star has SUB-light Engines but can travel 1.1 million times the speed of light, SUB-light meaning under the speed of light. Clearly it has some other type of engines to reach multiple times the speed of light.
Yea it has a hyper drive
The heart of gold is just everywhere all at once it is not really moving at all when the improbability drive is running.
Quantum super-positioning sure is a thing.
So was the speeder when it succeeded in going to "Warp 10" in Voyager
yes, but there is Eddie!
Yeah
But still infinite speed is impossible
Because at those speeds?
SPACE ITSELF is causing friction
So basicly at that speeds it's impossible
So yeah
I call it the Vacuum Limit
@@seantaggart7382 What you are saying is that it is basicly impossible, therefore just very improbable, calculate it with bistromatics and turn on the improbability drive and there you go!
L= litre
m/s = metres per second
And the Tardis is infinite.
m/s= miles/second
@@InfraredSpace in europe it means meters per second
And don't forget Voyager's shuttlecraft Cochrane, achieved warp 10, said to occupy all points in the universe at the same time
@@bencollins4343 pretty much everywhere else too. If someone uses miles per second (which folks really don't that much) it would be mi/s.
@@splatbubble yeah that’s what i thought aha😭
I remember Paris saying in Voyager, that warp 9.8 is 4 billion miles a second.
it's not, warp speeds are very slow. Everything in Star Trek is very slow with a few exceptions.
@@Ishlacorrin Go tell Lt Paris.
@@EugVR6 No need, that is so obviously wrong it's laughable. At that speed it would only take 5 seconds to cross the galaxy and yet we know the fastest ship in Star Trek still takes 20 years to do so lol.
@@Ishlacorrin As I said, Lt Paris said it in Voyager episode...these are not my word's...PS the milkyway is 105,700 light years across...it will be more than 5 sec to cross the Galaxy at full warp...so wrong it's laughable 😂😂😂
star trek enterprise had gotten up to warp 11 before kirk told the probe Nomad to stop.
As soon as you said "every" sci-fi series, I *knew* The Hitchikers Guide To The Galaxy would be number one. Had a fair idea the Tardis would be second too.
Not read it for years, but didn't the Bistromath make the Heart of Gold seem like an electric pram? Sounds faster, and you get to have a nice meal while travelling.
The Delta Flyer from Star Trek Voyager should be on first place as well because it had reached Warp 10 which means being everywhere at the same time. So infinite Speed.
@@89erMerun The warp 10 experiment was a failure. The idea is pretty much what the infinite drive does on the Heart of Gold, without turning people into giant salamanders
@@simu31 Yes, but it had reached Warp 10 nevertheless
Just a note on the Star Wars ships. The Ion Engines are their sublight propulsion. Their FTL is a Hyper-matter Reactor powered Hyperdrive.
@martin hunter No, from established Star Wars canon.
That mistake was made on many other ships too, listing their sublight engines instead of the hyperdrives.
@Red Elite Key word "pedia" They can be edited and therefore not always accurate, even Wikipedia.
It's not the same for Star Trek ships, though. In the Roddenberry Timeline, the warp nacelles provide the warp field, while the Impulse engines provide the propulsion. In The Kelvin Timeline, the Nacelles provide both warp field and propulsion at FTL. The Impulse engines power down before they go to warp.
wtf is "L"? Light speed is C. its all.
Because no scientists made this video.
@@MurpheeLaw agreed. also m/s for miles per second...wtf...also the ENterprise_D is NOT faster than the ISD at FTL speeds...neither is the Intrepid CLass like the USS Voyager, UNLESS you count when Voyager used the Slipstream Drive...because Hyperdrive speeds are clsoer to star trek's transwarp speeds...
@@ceilyurie856 transwarp has no speed... once you hit transwarp your literally everywhere at the same time. That was the explanation in Voyage.
c isn't the Speed of Light, it's the Speed of Causality: Einstein's famous equation isn't e=mc², look it up :)
umm actually... (let me put my ubernerd glasses on)... the c is lowercase, and yes, that does matter. Capital C is Celsius.
Amazing! You included the Heart of Gold! That ship is usually forgotten in such lists...
40K technically has the fastest ships but it's super random, in the lore due to warp fuckery ships can arrive hundred of years late or even chronologically before they left.
40K is so fucked lmao
Can't stand anything WH. The whole thing reminds me of a kid I knew in Jr High...when we were all playing Battletech and he "invented" a 1,000,000 ft tall 'mech made of pure energy that could alter its form pretty much without limit, at will, had regenerative shields, and could fire the equivalent of multiple capital ship PPC blasts from any point on its body.
thats not moving fast thats just taking a shortcut, so not technicly the fastest
And the TARDIS is still going to beat them, because it can target both the "Time and Relative Dimension in Space" as stated in the name. Thus while the 40k ships MIGHT arrive before they left, the TARDIS can do so at will.
Isn't the TARDIS also technically ∞ as well since it can time travel, effectively making the journey duration 0?
It also exists at every point in time and space, iirc.
Also Enterprise could time travel
@@mtenterprise4347 Not under normal circumstances, nor was it intended to
MT ENTERPRISE Planet Express can time travel if it’s caught in a gama Ray with either if the microwave is going or if Bender is on board.
@@pendragoncenturi Yes, also because of the temporal directive
Sheldon: “ You know what's the problem here? ”
Amy: “ That Americans can't handle the metric system? ”
*laughs*
Whenever a European sees the American Imperial units , they start whining about Americans and their usage of the imperial units. While when an American sees a metric usage he/she simply asks for the conversion. It looks like it is the Europeans who can NOT handle the American presence at all. Because, obviously they can't whine about the Britishit using their Imperial system, EVER? Why? Are you afraid of that the Brits will mock you with their hilarious jokes?
@@squidproquo2241 I dont think he complains about the System itself but rather about the use in the video. E.g. I highly doubt that Apollo 11 flew with a speed of 6.68m/s. Converted to mph it would be about 15 mph or 24kph which is plain wrong. This adds up to the rest of the video.
@@marvins.5656 "I dont think he complains about the System itself but rather about the use in the video. E.g. I highly doubt that Apollo 11 flew with a speed of 6.68m/s. Converted to mph it would be about 15 mph or 24kph which is plain wrong. This adds up to the rest of the video."
OK! Let's try to figure this out. He doesn't have a problem with the system That's fine. Then, anyone can easily realize that if you are using different systems you have to make a conversion. This chap in the video seems to use m/second instead km/second.
1- What this has anything to do with handling the metric system?
2- What this has anything to do with being an American?
So, in his defense, you say that his complain is more about the conversion mistake than the system itself.
However, my take on his complaint is rather his focus on the origins of the video uploader than the system itself. If, the uploader would have been a britishit, and if he knew that the uploader was a Britihist, he simply would have sucked up and ate his urge to expose a mistake and even more he would have not even imagine mocking the uploader. And, this would be absolutely true, ESPECIALLY, if, he himself is an arrogant and ignorant biritishit to his bone marrow.
if he said that, "the uploader (without mentioning the name American) seem like can;t handle the conversion between imperial and metric systems." That would have been far less arrogant and far less offensive.
So, yes, his problem is with Americans not with the systems, however, his reflection on that problem is via the difference between the systems. Hence my response.
FYI; 6.68 km/s = 14943 mph. If he could have the proper ethics to digest the knowledge he had, instead of being an asshole about it, he could have posted a comment saying that all the m/s units should be replaced with km/s, by respectfully informing the uploader about this at the same time.
Also, just notice that the uploader is not using the m/s notation for meter per second, but he is using it for MILES PER SECOND and it is given at the top of the video.
6.68 Miles per second = 24048 miles per hour.
Why should they. They saved Europe twice now....
Just a quick note. The ship "Fireball" was actually "Fireball XL-5" :D
At 'Space Velocity 7'. XL5 was one of possibly 30 XL vessels. Good to see TB3 and Serenity in the list too!
Missing a few ships here. I miss atlantis. The city of the ancients. And i miss destiny. Also miss the x303 promotheos. All are stargate ships.
The stargate ships are ammong the fastest taking the ships in to subspace with hyperdrive engines.
Yeah. Shit, the Daedalus isn't even using the best Asguard driver, since Asguard ships and Ancient ships can go from Pegasus and the Milkyway in a few days, instead 6. And that Wraith Hive with a ZPM did it in a day.
Also they routinely leave a.d travel to other galaxies. Star trek /star wars haven't left their own galaxies
I'm sad there's been no new developments in the SG universe :(
"Cyclon", "Samsu", "m/s", "L". Also, I find some of those numbers to be highly suspect. This one's bad.
_L_ instead of _c_ and _m/s_ instead of _mph_ and some of the dubious numbers are wrongly named then double-wrongly enumerated ... all pedantic trivia but all instantly recognized by FTL-sci-fi-spaceship-starship kinds of people (ie: the intended audience). All conveniently dragged out just past UA-cam's 10 minute mark.
Badly done. Unsubscribed.

It would have to be the TARDIS. It operates outside the normal constraints of space/time. Possibly the most powerful, too - it can tow planets.
I nearly wasted 10 mins of my life on this video... thanks to the comment section, I did not.
ha haha... what a story mark
Agreed total youtubes BS.
Thought this too. This one time I decide to give a seemingly shitty comparison a chance and then this. Thankfully watched only like 20 seconds of it
You mean you don't watch everything in 2 times speed
That's nothing I wasted an hour reading the comments 😂
All the Mass effect ships are missing
Yup
No Babylon 5 ships? 3rd Space gates moves ships at over 200 to the 1000th power speed if I remember from the movie
How many fictional science fiction ships are there?
It isn't possibly to include every fictional ship from every sci fi series. I have been reading The Lost Starship series and it didn't include Starship Victory either but so what. They did a great job amassing these ships for comparison.
and the ASS 1 (Alien StarShip) from Macross/Robotech? 6ly/s is fast...Or the Dune ships.
I love that you spelled Samus wrong and had her gunship flying backwards and still outpacing an X-wing
The Borg cube uses a transwarp drive, which rates it at a speed faster than the warp 10 threshold of the star Trek warp speeds ( warp 10 being the fastest a ship is theoretically possible to travel at, it is stated in star trek voyager that warp 10 is the speed at where a ship is everywhere at all times, also transwarp is faster than voyager by about 10 times)
If the Borg are so fast, how come the Enterprise-D was able to run away in the first encounter? The chase scene shows the two vessels basically equal in speed
.
Borg Cube has a Transwarp Drive.
Indeed it does I commented on that when I watched the video, glad some one already noticed
Yeah also the Enterprise E has around Warp 9,985 which is around 5800x lightspeed. And the Borg Transwarp speed is 20 Times faster
Hey, can anyone tell me the name of the music used in this video?
They should have mentioned the quantum slipstream drive and the USS Equinox enhanced warp drive.
Also in Star Trek Voyager is a Warp Drive with Warp 10
I didn't know Samus's ship could hit that speed in reverse.
I was about to say, they got that ship backwards!
Its samsu's gunship, shes a bounty hunter who hunts the metrards
Tardis vs Heart of Gold. Now that would be an interesting fight.
Loving the Gerry Anderson ships.
Pity the best ship ever was missing, and she's fast - The Liberator.
I agree totally and beautiful too.
Awesome. “Liquid Schwartz” Classic.
Samus' ship was backwards btw. The cockpit is not in the rear
Was gonna mention this. Also it has a typo, "samsu", instead of samus.
Glad someone else noticed! 🤣
She's backing that ass up
So was the Borg cube, everybody should have noticed that.
Before watching: The fastest is the Heart of Gold is the fastest with its Infinite Improbability Drive.
Hah! You forget about the Bistromath!
I would have liked Perry Rhodan ships to be included as some do feature interesting ideas. Also there are different types of engines e.g. jump (instant), interdimensional 4,5D-Engines, drives that only work if you travel from one galaxy to another so you can not stop in between but are extremely fast aso...
Please use "mi" for mile. The rest of the non UK and US territories thought those spaceships were really slow. "m" is internationally used for meters.
these speeds only make sense in america, uk is mostly metric, only road signs remain, i was only taught metric in school in the 90s
Canadian here was going to tell you your converstion of metres per second didn't add up to your miles per hour. haha
@@LoT945 I would be a similar age to you but have to say that's not my experience. We use a hotch-potch of imperial and metric both on and off the road. In a way this is good because it means most people are unit-bilingual in the UK. Metric is used in law, but imperial measurements are more common in day-to-day and informal conversation. E.g. petrol is sold by the litre, but we then talk about how many mpg the vehicle does. Describing someone's height or weight people only use metric if metric is required for it (e.g. plugging it into a BMI calculator) and I've never heard someone ask for half a litre of beer. The weirdest one I think is that when buying meat at a butcher the price will usually be per kg but people order in lbs.
I found that when I lived in London and I find it the same out here in the sticks, so it isn't a city/country thing.
No one even uses the imperial system when describing speed / distance in space. Mars Climate Orbiter anyone?

Topic is "Fastest Spaceships" and Michael Kaer is correct to a large degree. Technically it is a: Star Trek - Federation Type 9 - Class 2 shuttle with Adapted Transwarp Drive that broke the Warp 10 barrier. Warp 10: Infinite velocity! I would put it as Type 9 - Class 2 since it's a modified Type 9 by the "Voyager" crew.
Warp is not “going fast” per say. It’s more of a jump than moving fast. So you really cannot say one ship is faster than the other. It’s more which ship has the capability to get to a destination in the least amount possible of time.
The Atreides fleet ships from Dune should have been no. 1. They can literally fold space to travel to the other side of the galaxy instantly. It’s scientifically impossible to get any faster than that.
No. Only the Spacing Guild ships folded space. The guild retained that technology and as it required a guild navigator to maneuver such a ship, they held a monopoly on interstellar travel.
The great houses only owned and operated ships for orbital transfer.
@@billhenry7213
You’re right of course.
However, this comparison of speed is determined by distance/time. No other science fiction ships could travel so far so quickly. The methods were not compared.
By the stipulations, Dune wins.
Apollo 11 was just the name of the 1st moon mission, it was not the name of the rocket, the rocket was called Saturn V
The rockets themselves travelled at different speeds due to their weight differences. For example the Apollo 10 Saturn V set the speed record for a crewed vehicle.
Also the very high speed shown in the video (24,800mph) were achieved not by the Saturn V rocket but by the combined Command Service and Lunar Modules during their transfers between Moon and Earth orbits (on the return trip). The Saturn Vs were only required to escape Earth and reach Earth orbit.
It did use the F1 engine though, but also the J2 and SPS engines.
Homie, I made it 27 seconds before I hit pause and looked at comments. Never going to start again.
Man never walked on the moon
Forgot the highliners from the Dune books. Anywhere in the universe, instantly...
Hmmm, That realization when the navigators look like amphibians. As did the star trek voyager navigator after reaching warp ten. He also felt like he could go, and be everywhere instantly.
Is that really a speed though ? They simply folded space. While a faster means of travel, not really moving. Closer to teleporting.
"GIVE ME SPIIIICE!"
@@user-wn7qf4pm3z the spice is the worm.The worm is the spice.
@@wargalley20011 Dont forget 29th century starfleet, which a shuttle can travel from delta to apha both instantly and through time.
That's why I want a T.A.R.D.I.S. T-40. 2ND FASTEST ship in the Galaxy.
This was cool!!!! Thanks.
“ Buckle this. Ludicrous speed, now!”
They've gone plaid
Are we stopped? Smoke 'em if you got 'em!
i knew it.....i'm surrounded by assholes :)P
DeLorean did not use reactor for movement, it was used only for time jumps. It still used internal combustion engine to move.
When it travels to time it's faster then anything in the
video.
It didn't fly until it had been to the future and had the "Mr fusion" reactor fitted, pretty sure internal combustion engine was removed at that point....
@@Phillv8 no, she still powered the wheels with the gas engine. They never explain what powers the flight unit, but it is tied somehow to the combustion engine. The mr fusion was used to replace the need for uranium for the nuclear reactor that only powered the time circuits. This is all covered in part three and why they had to push it with the train.
@@mystic1160 It used a *PLOT DEVICE.*
Back to the Future 3 proved internal engine is still needed to make the car move. Watch the scene where Marty tries to start the car while Doc pours in strong drink, and ends up blowing up something.
The fact that the Planet Express ship is faster than all the Star Trek and Star Wars ships makes me happy.
It actually isnt. It moves the Universe around it instead of it moving.
I loved that this video included such ships as the thunderfighter from buck rogers and the gunstar from last starfighter.
Death Star: sepma sublight engines, yet somehow faster than light speed
this video is kinda eh on its "facts" they mentioned the Deathstar's maneuvering engines but ignore the "fact" that it has a hyperdrive like damn near every other vessel in star wars
"Star Wars" folklore uses "sublight" with a different meaning than we use it. It refers to the "subspace", so a sublight engine would work in subspace. The idea is that, if the space is "sub", then travelling in it is always "super", or something like that. It's completely made up, so, who knows what the writers really meant.
I mean Slave I has a class 0.7 hyperdrive
But no its ion engines are what make it move that fast
I mean the death star does have a class 4 hyperdrive though
I noticed that too. This video is garbage.
The Asgard ships in Stargate are substantially faster than the Daedlus class ship
It went from a entirely different galaxy back to the milky way while towing the Daedlus in five seconds
Yes. Very few of these ships can travel between galaxies in just a few seconds
If the Daedalus has a better powerplant, it could use the hyperdrive's full potential.
So it means its speed was at least(if the galaxy was Andromeda) 2,540,000*365*24*60*12 > 16*10^12c, faster than Futurama ship
I would like to see the space battle ship Yamato and some of the other ships in Starblazers.
Thanks for these comparisons and research that must have gone into it.
The TARDIS is the fastest ship ever, why? It’s relative
I see what you did there ; )
Nice
Just a friendly correction, Eagle 5 (spaceballs) had the secret hyperjets. Spaceball 1 had an undefined engine that went to Ludacris Speed.
Lightspeed too slow!
Ah yes, the "Move bitch, get out the way" speed. Quite fast.
Well, they didn't have a Cuisinart!
just dont go to Plaid
What is Ludacris speed? Get your facts straight.
I love the idea of this, but many of the calculations are way off.
I'd like to see a combination of 2 systems together: a warp drive and a darkmatter reactor. The 2 of them have aesthetics that can be combined in order to rival the Tardis at least.
Better yet, combine warp and/or hyperspace along with slipspace technologies. Jump into slipspace, then warp/hyperspace through slipspace to reach your destination faster???
@@brokenleftearbuglord9106 Possibly, though the Infinite Improbobability Drive is too much for me to wrap my mind around which is why I don't intend to use that
Heart Of Gold is so fast it arrives before it left
I was waiting for the Improbability Drive. It finally appeared.
In a ship that look looks nothing like a tennis shoe.
I don't care if some of the speeds are off as the comments argue, I just love that Spaceballs was here, Last Starfighter, and Max from Flight of the Navigator. Thanks for the obscure ones!
The Heart Of Gold from The Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy has an infinite improbability drive not an "Improbable Drive."
The warp 10 shuttle in Voyager is technically a tie for the "Heart of gold". Jus sayn.
That was such a weird episode
Yeah... We pretend that episode didn't happen. 😆
That was an odd one
You cant pretend it didnt happen
But we can delete it from the doctors memory
@@maybeharold I always wondered, what would happen if they accidentally said "delete" instead of "deactivate" the EMH? Voyager's database seemed to be lacking a backup drive. Or even a password protect for his program.
You forgot to include "Dune". MOTION WITHOUT MOVING, SPACE FOLDING...
Cool info and graphics!
I have a buddy that IS a rocket scientist and I asked him yesterday to check this video out and tell me how long it would take for one of these ships to cross the universe. He responded with this.
"The tardis could cross the entire universe in 3 months."
That's kinda peppy... :)
"Tell the Wookie your ship is faster than mine, go ahead." Han Solo.
Alright...My ship is faster than yours! Na na na na....ahhhhh my arms! He ripped my arms off!
The tardis can arrive to the destination point before it leaves the original point. So Ít has negative speed. Faster than 0.
@Joe Duke Delorean is restricted to Earth though.
The USS Discovery nearly jumps in an instant with it's spore drive. I wouldn't say she's faster as the Tardis but very close to it.
@@raphaelwolff885 Also got from Star Trek, the timeship Aoen which can instantly travel across galaxy through space and time
There’s a similar situation with ships in Warhammer 40k. There are times where they’ll arrive 10 minutes before they left, or millennia after. Because Warp.
@bmhiscd1 Yeees sir :D
Wow. Some classic space ships from the past. Didn't know the speed old TV shows like thunder ball xl-5. Yes am that old. Lol 😊
The Asgard ships can fly across the galaxy in just a few seconds
Yep, Stargate ship power and speed scale are insane
Ask any Trekkie and they'll tell you that a Borg Cube uses a trans-warp drive. It's mentioned multiple times in Star Trek: Voyager. Also, the Heart of Gold uses an Infinite Improbability engine, as opposed to a Finite Improbability engine. I'd love to see a remake of this with newer ships, like the USS Discovery (Star Trek: Discovery) and The Orville.
Star trek spore is instantaneous. Orville dysonium drive does 86,000 ly/hr.
The Event Horizon has a gravity drive that generates an artificial black hole that bridges two point in spacetime reducing travel time over astronomical distances. ⚛️🔄
Wonder if that means you can travel downwards through the shaft of time but you cannot go back up through the abyss of space, from where you originated from...?
@@mjag2834 I don't know but you may end up in hell.
@@JirkaGasik There are worse places than Eternal Darkness, vice and luxury in a Garden of Earthly Delights...like Inferno...
Yeah but it only goes to hell and back.
SSV Normandy SR-2: I'm not in the video... Ok... Hold my beer
The Borg use a series of transwarp coils. There top speed is 20 times faster than the USS Enterprise D.
Considering how slow the D is, that's not saying much tho.
You forgot the Displcement-Activated Spore Hub Drive! 😁
Exactly my dude star trek is the best
Probably the fastest lol
Only in another universe...
also dont forget Aeon timeship, earth to delta quadrant instantly both space and time
Borg cubes use transwarp drives. It’s actually pretty well defined and the technology is even adapted at times to be used in federation vessels.
If the Borg are so fast, how come the Enterprise-D was able to run away in the first encounter? The chase scene shows the two vessels basically equal in speed
.
@@electrictroy2010 Because they didn't enter a transwarp conduit (god I feel like a nerd)
A few thoughts here...
Spaceball 1 did not have secret hyperjets, that was Eagle 5
Spaceball 1's top speed was "Ludacris speed"
Liquid Schwartz was not something Eagle 5 could normally do, that was a one time only thing.
ALSO, if the Heart of Gold gets the #1 spot because it can just basically appear somewhere else, what about the Guild Spice Navigators from Dune? They basically do the same thing.
++ for including spaceballs
Oh dear... "Samsu Gunship"? And it's flying backwards? xD Plus: The Borg use Trans Warp Conduits.
lol noticed that too but was happy it made the list as well as Serenity!
glad im not the only one to noticed it
Tom Paris achieved infinite velocity in a shuttle in Star Trek btw
Problem with that was that Paris kidnapped Janeway before turning into salamanders and had a clutch of babies. That episode went downhill fast.
@@johnevans6084 On the bright side, at least it wasn't a "Fair Haven" episode.
I'm pretty sure the scifi community as a whole has decided to ignore that episode for good.
@@gamiensrule We don't ignore it...we remember it....because if you forget the past you are doomed to repeat it...and we never want repeat "Threshold"....
@@Jake-cm9jj True. Although, that episode was de-canonized in the same Star Trek series later on.
Shout out to Fireball XL5, getting to that speed using string power. Still the best-looking spaceship of all, imho!
Speed of light:- Am I joke to you?
"Wow the Star Trek ships keep getting faster, I wonder what their next..."
CUBE
"Oh..."
Borg use a different propulsion system.
Mycellium spore drive - Starship Discovery
You forgot the Jupiter 2 , the Space Pod from Lost in Space, the Eagles from Space 1999
A) Tom Paris did get to warp 10 (infinite speed/everywhere at the same time) in one Voyager episode, IIRC it was in the Delta Flyer.
b) Since the Tardis is a space/time moving ship, it also has an infinite speed (it can instantaneously reappear somewhere else to the external observer), even if it has "the parking brake left on".
c) What about Bistromathics? It is quoted as "A major step up from the Infinite Improbability Drive" :-D
star wars ships use light speed to get into hyperspace which is SVERAL TIMES faster than anything in star trek. There are likely no other ships faster than the ones in SW.
they can go side to side in a 100k light galaxy in a couple of days,
that means they are traveling millions of times faster than warp or anything else we've seen. the fact that people still get this wrong...
My exwife's mouth could move way faster than any of these...
Ha!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
hahahhahaha lmao
😂😂😂
The fastest thing is the speed at which bull$#!+ moves on the Internet.
I thought "FTL" meant "Faster Than Light"..... So why is the Cylon Raider classisied as a Slower Than Light ship?
Yeah, same thing with the Death Stars "Sepma SUBlight Engines" being 1142500 times the speed of light.
I know why, it's powered by kid bias.
I stopped watching when I saw they listed it as a Cyclon Raider....
Because of poor research
My guess is that even though it is an FTL capable vessel, they needed another sublight vessel for comparison so they put its sublight speed. Or that it's FTL capabilities are unknown so they couldn't but it in with the other FTL ships.
You have forgotten “The Hart of Gold” from “Hitchhikers Guide to The Galaxy”
I was so sure the Normandy SR-2 was gonna be on here.
