USS Odyssey from Stargate. That thing could cross the galactic void between the Milky Way and Pegasus galaxies in 20-days. The sheer number of systems you could explore with that ship is insane.

sigspecopsI would ride the waves of cosmic energy on a surfboard like the Silver Surfer and I'd look super cool to everyone I passed.

ronnied316Fantastic thread idea!!
I’d choose the SDF-1. Mostly because I want my own personal Veritech VF-1S to fly around, and that by itself would be impractical for interstellar travel.

Oh, that's a good one. You can keep Odyssey; I'll take Daedalus.
Asgard weapons, beaming technology, FTL drive, with English labels (bonus points for being operated by the present-day Air Force) and cool fighters.
I've always been partial to the Akira-class from Star Trek. LOTS o' photon torpedoes, massive shuttle bays (often described as a 'space carrier'), and just cool looks.

Any universe you want to travel to (well only 1.0314425e+28) of them.

It seems to me that any law that is not enforced and can't be enforced weakens all other laws.

I have always liked the look of the Akira-class as well.

See the universe, and enjoy the holodecks in-between stops.

Cuz I love old school.

Hound DogWell, at least one person wants the Galactica.
She IS a cool ship. Rugged (takes direct hits by nukes and suffers only mild damage), with FTL, large numbers of fighters, good weapons.
I just wouldn't want to live in that universe. . .

It's small but the time travel thing seems to make the trips pretty short.

KurtZ66I voted "other" and would pick the Avalon from Passengers, assuming they got the whole hibernation issue fixed.

Travels through stargates, travels through time, will reach the bottom of the ocean and has cloaking capability. On top of all that, you control it with your mind.

Yeah, but what if you don't have the Ancient gene?

AugenI'll take a star destroyer thanks. Plenty of fire power and has shuttles and fighters on standby.
