Most powerful spaceship??
Which would be the last standing, er floating...im convinced its the Lexx after watching the sci-fi channel this week .
|
I'm sorry ... you can vote ' other ' but tell us why .
|
the Galatica hands down
|
Dude! Where's the Red Dwarf?
|
Howzabout the Heart of Gold? The Berserker? (I think we can safely rule out the Nostromo)
|
the death star damnit! It can blow up a whole planet! A planet folks!

You know, I was all set to say that the Enterprise E from the alternate future in "All Good Things..." (NOT the one from the movies) was the strongest...but then I saw the Lexx in the options and got to thinking and, WOW, that's one powerful ship. I had pretty much forgotten about it. The one flaw though is that it takes so long to get going. The Deathstar is faster with almost as much power and the Enterprise E (AGT version) could rip through the Deathstar before it even got its power up. Then there's the Borg cube. Based strictly on the ship and ignoring the skill of the people running it, the Borg cube is stronger than the Enterprise E. It's been too long since I've seen Battlestar so I can't really remember how powerful that one is. As far as the Endeavour...why in the world is it even listed? Unless I'm missing something and you're not talking about the Federation starship. Anyway, that leaves the Borg cube as the most powerful.
|
I dunno if anyone was actually nerdy enough to read the Star Wars books, but does anyone remember the SunCrusher? It was better than the Death Star, and could destroy whole galaxies.
Han Solo stole it too. |

(Then again, the Genesis thing was pretty unplausable - oh well) |
The Death Star all the way...
Gotta love the bg testical in the sky. |
I think the Sun Crusher could destroy a star system, not the entire galaxy (which is comprised of multiple star systems).
|
i could see why you did NOT include the jupiter II, the Stargazer, or the TARDIS, or deep space 9. but how about babylon 5? :D
|
Aww... The Lexx would have the Death Star for a snack!
|
What about the spaceship yamamoto from star blazers! The wave motion gun would kick all their asses.
|
Other
Unicron, if it/he qualifies as a spaceship. A giant metal planet that devoures everyting in its path.
|
im really down with armored mecha but that is anime and seeing as how i know nothing about star trek and have only played aramada and aramada II i have to go with the cube
*i just realized that this is not about star trek so i stick with my original not listed choice which is armored mecha |
I think it would come down to the Death Star and the Borg Cube. With the Borg Cube kicking serious ass and assimilating stormtroopers left and right.
Tell me you wouldn't pay to see that! |
Wow,
I'm embarassed to say I've never heard of the Lexx, but powerwise, the Death Star is hard to beat. Of course, a large ship like the Enterpise can still easily avoid being targeted by it's main weapon, the question then becomes whose shield technology is superior, the Federation's or the Empires. In otherwords, can a tie fighter effectively attack a starship and can a starship knock through the Death Star's shields? Of course the most powerful ship that was mentioned at all is the Tardis, if you look past it's unassuming exterior and just think about it. The Tardis can time travel to any period and simply appear in a cargo hold of the Enterprise or the main reactor chamber of the Death Star and drop off an antimatter bomb before anyone could stop it. For that matter, it could just pop over to Coresant (sp?) and kill Palpatine before he ever came to power. I guess it's a good thing Time Lords are *mostly* benevolent. |
the borg would own all.
|
Resistance is futile. The Borg cube wins.
|
Hey! Where is Moya? You can't leave that ship out of here! :)
|
and the Heart of Gold!
|
Burt Rutan and SpaceShipOne
now that kicks ASS |

And don't lie to yourself, SecretMethod, Star Trek isn't that much more realistic. They've travelled in time more than Marty McFly, Bill and Ted, and the Smurfs combined! |

Nothing with that though, really...... |
my vote goes to the armor plated Voyager ! kicks ass
|
I was thinking the Andromada, not because she is so powerful but because the AI is hot.
Voted for The Lexx for power and creativity. The show is strange and wonderful like real science fiction should be. The Lexx can destroy entire planets and fight off swarms of robot arms. |
I think Tophat had it right. The Heart of Gold needs no firepower. It has probability on its side.
|
The lexx would totally kick the asses of all of the listed ships BUT The Heart of Gold would win hands down... when you have infinite improbablity on your side what can possibly beat you?
As for the Tardis... it is really a space/time ship and so doesn't really qualify. Spaceship Yamamoto gets my consolation prize just because it is so cool. |
what about the big ass mother ship from independence day? the one 1/4 the size of the moon?
|
Ok, take the Death Star off that list. Doesn't any remember it was a 'space station'? I may seem anal, but it is no space ship.
And The Lexx is the most powerful by far. |

But going from the choices given, I'm with the Borg Cube. Cuz the Borg would adapt to the other's weapons system and render them powerless. |

I'm with Yoda on the Sun Crusher, because of the invincibility thing. I'm also thinking the Galaxy Gun, solely because its missiles can cross the galaxy in a couple of hours and take out an entire planet. Talk about first strike capability. |
I find your lack of faith in the death star disturbing....
|
How about the one in Hitchhiker's? It could wreak havoc on the fabric of space and time just by random chance.
|
The X-Wing! After all, it did kill the Death Star! ;) Suncrusher in my opinion is the best but remember, it's EU so it is not an official Star Wars universe vehicle unless stated by the man himself, George Lucarse.
|
I didn't know Victor Borg even had a cube!
|
I remember years ago sitting it my stupid SCUBA diving class day-dreaming, and drawing which ship would win in a battle: The Enterprise, or a Star Destroyer. It’s a tough call: the Enterprise had "main energizers" off line every time someone threw a soda bottle at them. They always lost warp power, but they always 'reconfigured'.
The Enterprise has 1,000(?) people on board? According to the books, the Star Destroyers have like 30,000 people? (Am I remembering that right?) It would be cool to see swarms of TIE's attacking. So could the SD win just with numbers – it all depends on who gets the first shot. As you can see, I had lots of time to doodle while I'm supposed to be learning about DCS… I am such a geek… |
No mention of the Vorlon ships from B5?
Or the Nebari ships from Farscape? Those ships can kick some major ass! |
Definitely with Yoda and MSD... its all about the Sun Crusher. It can take out an entire solar system, yet its still small enough to deal with small fighters. And the whole invulnerable thing doesn't hurt, either.
People keep bringing up the death star... the death star sucked! It got taken out by a light fighter! I want a ship that can take some hits, and still keep kickin'. Out of the available choices, I'd definitely have to go with the Lexx. It's just that cool... |
Nice Douglas Adams reference...
But what about any of the Honor Harrington ships? The Benjamin the Great class Superdreadnaugt ships would do some major damage to most of the ships in this list. Being over 4,200 meters in length and with that arsenal, I think tha it would win. But if I had to pick from the list...I'd say the Lexx |
Quote:
Which do you recommend? |
TARDIS. Mind over matter.
|
I vote for the Heart of Gold. That's the most powerful, by far!
|
The Vorlon planet killer is the most powerful ship in sci-fi by far.
Organic technology (a living ship) 6-7km across its y axis 42-58km long and wipes out planets with one shot, plus needs a fleet of "first ones" ships to destroy it as is uses bio tech defenses that learns every time it is hit and adapts. |
Quote:
I chose Galactica over the Lexx because I think the crew is innovative and talented enough to achieve more than the Lexx ever could. I bet the crew could even find a way to destroy the Lexx, either directly or indirectly. Being able to launch those Vipers and Raptors is definitely an advantage. |
Since this was necro-bumped anyway, I'd be remiss if I didn't contribute to this conversation by linking one of the more entertaining websites I've found devoted to the relative scale of our favorite science fiction space-faring vehicles. Jeff Russell's STARSHIP DIMENSIONS
|
Serenity... oh sorry I thought you said Most Awesome spaceship.
|
Most powerful? The one in my pants.
Seriously, though, I vote for the one that impacts in Death Valley in "The Hammer of God". Nothing like injecting something that's going to devour the planet. |
The Great Space Coaster :D
|
The Ship of Lights from BSG
Alterran Warship from Stargate series USS Phoenix from non-cannon Star Trek universe (The War of the Prophets) V'ger from Star Trek the Motion Picture Does the Dyson Sphere count as a spaceship? |

I have to stick with my original post.

First time I have seen this thread.
No clue what the Lexx is without a google search (just did a google search & found a wikipedia page to a series I have never heard at all, something about a sexual themed sci-fi show) the ship from Battle Star Galactica was impressive in the original series, no clue how is it is the new one - but take away the support ships and the aircraft carrier will eventually go down, albeit at a possibly high price No clue about the Endeavour as well, all that means to me is the wooden ships, the recent shuttle craft and a certain class of ships from Star Trek Going with the Borg Cube, any of the Enterprises shown for more than five seconds or in any detail would lose badly against it. if the list is for 'Space Stations', then cover the exposed exhaust port with a grill and change to a much smaller opening and I would choose the death star. edit: but Terok Nor/DS9 is a much more grungy and vribrant character overall in my opinion |
Any Question about ass-kicking space monstrosities - IT'S UNICRON
Unicron, the Planet Eater vs. the Death Star, the Planet Destroyer
http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2006/...a42253e8c3.jpg Unicron's ability to turn into something other than a ball tends to give him an advantage. http://farm1.static.flickr.com/69/17...61cffa8a16.jpg Voltron's Blazing sword works great for the Planet Eater. Perhaps he aquired it during a previous battle? http://farm1.static.flickr.com/65/17...f2ff7d1b23.jpg Unicron Loves All http://i195.photobucket.com/albums/z...ab57e7ccaa.jpg Maybe a rematch against DeathStar Vader is needed to Ulitimately Claim a Champion of the Universe? click to show |
If Federation ships were armed with project Genesis they can do just as much damage as the Deathstar and Lexx.
The Event Horizon can fold space and it brought Hell back with it. Was in another thread, but if you were ever intersted to see who would win between the old and new Enterpises: |
well i voted lexx cuz not only could it destroy worlds like the death star, not only did it have a totally logical gangster ass killa like spok, but it had a sex bot on demand

Hey, sorry to be geeky, but you folks said ship, NOT CREW! Lexx wins hands down. Lexx had scrotum fluff for a crew and is still considered 1st or 2nd on this list. Put Kirk on this baby and he'd be banging his way through the universe! Nyah-nyah! May I consider myself the winner:orly: of this discussion? |
The thread is #1 on google for "most powerful spaceship"
most powerful spaceship - Google Search Kinda cool. |
For this thread to be any more than simply a spewing of different ship names, there needs to be some kind of criteria set to the ultra subjective term "powerful". Any ship that can time travel has universe-ending potential. That seems pretty "powerful" to me.

All they had to do is put some grating to cover up those exhaust tubes on the Death Star.
But noooooooooooooooooooooooo, some stupid bureaucrat in the Imperial High Command had to go bitching about cost overruns. I told him don't worry about that shit, Vader would sign off on it, but then he started crying about how the last time he brought it up to him he got the invisible choke hand. I told him to man the fuck up next time, but he's too much of a wuss. And now look what happened. Maybe they'll listen to me next time. |
Well I have a crossover of the series I have seen and this is result:
Leviathan-Transformer hybrid (Talyn) with Nanite Plasteel/Crystalline hull (various books about aliens) Energy Absorptive Armour (B5 Crusade) Lantean/Asgard Hyperdrive (StarGate) Starburst (Farscape) Asgard Neutrino-Ion Generators (SG) Lantean cloaking system ZPM for additional kick Lantean-Asgard shields with Luxan (Farscape) capabilities (DNA recognition) Lantean mental control chair Drone weapons Asgard plasma beam weapons EMP generator Mini drones and Talyn internal defence network for intruders Well, this shoul beat everything imaginable. Size is not always important. |

The Borg Cube over all, more sinister than the Lexx, it can be hooked up in series, and overwhelm anything. yes, it can be defeated, but so can the death star (which is technically not a ship as pointed out). For pure single minded take-overness, the cube is a bitch. Even more powerful than the mighty guild ships, or the jihad ships. -----Added 9/1/2009 at 04 : 11 : 53----- Quote:

The planet-killer from the original Star Trek. Impervious to all weapons fire, and uses planets as a fuel source. Bonus: Shaped like a tasty Bugle® brand snack chip! ;) |
What? No votes for anything from the Dune universe? Just so I can be different, I choose a Guild Heighliner filled with Obliterators.

Some science fiction stories require interesting tech to draw people in. Dune was a space opera first and a science fiction second. |

As for the OP, F-it. I'll take a fleet of Star Destroyers for the win. |
For all of you people voting "Lexx"
Quote:
Zonama Sekot was deathstar-esque but more of a creator than a destroyer. It could produce it's own smaller ships to do a lot of the fighting, but in essence it was a planet and a ship. It even had it's own hyper drive. http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Zonama_Sekot My actual vote is for http://www.antoniogenna.net/simpson/...0Astronave.jpg |
Tin Man from the Star Trek TNG Episode of the same name. It may not have described all of its secrets, but from what was shown it was powerful.
|
The TARDIS would seem to be the winner.
Just consider that when Rose gazed into the heart of the TARDIS she achieved the power to change reality. Does any other ship give god-like power to anyone who looks at the engine? |

I'm going to have to vote for the Lexx -- it's just a cool concept and look funky when it's firing. Plus it can eat the leftovers once the other ships have been destroyed :)
