      8:28 Imagine that you're a mail courier and you're on the tip of the ship closest to us on our right and you have a package that needs to go to the other tip just above it. You can look out a space window and see it, and it doesn't look that far away, but you have to take a shuttle on a five hour drive 3/4 down the length of the ship and back up again just to get to the other side.

    Not gonna lie. That bit about the Imperium Super Duper Star Destroyer made me laugh. It's easy to imagine the Empire spending the absurd amount of resources needed to make something so impractical, only to decommission it before it ever saw service.
    I know you'll get to this in the finale of the Vong sub-series. Won't stop me from going through the motions though.

    I could see the Hegemon not as a ship to secure the empire but for it to conquer other galaxies. I imagine this song ship along with all its compliment sent to a foreign galaxy for the single purpose of conquering it with no need of reinforcement or supplies from the SW galaxy since it could produce its own new capital ships with its on board factories and new soldiers with its cloning facilities.

    Introducing the How Do I Even Measure This Dreadnaught, the only ship that take up almost half the universe. It houses 3 types of cannons-Black Hole Blasters, Galaxy Pistols, and Editors. The Black Hole Blasters rapidally fire hundreds of black holes at a time into its enemies. The ship houses at least 6.91 Billion of these. The Galaxy Pistol is a rapid fire cannon that fires galaxies at the opponent. We have roughly 991.6 Million of these on the ship. And finally, the editors. The editors are devices that warp the fabric of time and space around them, practically turning the ship into a god ship. We have only 6 Million editors on the ship, because they take up alot of space.
