The ideal ship form
(thelemmy.club)
Get on my level, heretics.
Peak form is a Borg Cube. No wasted space.
Close, but it was actually the Wasp class that was ideal.
Spaceships are not boats! The engine is not at the back, the engine is at the bottom!
Tag yourself. I'm "large, rolling rock"

Is that an extra nacelle or are you just happy to see me?
For the record, Wasp violates rodenberries fairly arbitrary rules for feddie ships in that it has an odd number of nacelles.
Lots of ships do that. It was always more of a guideline than a rule.
a rule I happen to like, lol. At least it has radial symetry so it doesn't look weird. (like that kelvin ship with one. weird)
Shape is irrelevant. Space is a vacuum. You will be assimilated.

Peak performance does not include a deflector dish?
It's there, it's the blue streak about 2/3 down. That's a Medical ship so it wouldn't need as large or sophisticated of a deflector as a capital ship or science class.
It’s the blue bar thing that looks like a forced smile.
The white person smile :|
That grimace deflector is underwhelming. But I guess it counts.
I realize it would have been nearly impossible for the model makers to do it, but I think that model could have been even better with a rotation to the "saucer" area- for free gravity inside.
Yes, I see.....
Edit: Did your mom tell you it's peak performance?

It me
Set phasers to cum.
Not just for the ladies either 😏
That ship is in shape!
(Round is a shape.)
Ship shape!
This is peak ship form:
Also the one on the far left fits up your bum easier.
No flared base though, might get stuck up there.

Good point, I was going to say the little legs night help it not get sucked up. But I think in reality it would work more like an arrow tip and rip your asshole further if you tried pulling it back out.
BT jumpships have a cool design, with a HUGE deployable solar sail to recharge their capacitor bank for the next Kearny-Fuschida jump. I'll grant you that they aren't much to look at.

I thought peak performance looked like a police box…
Not aerodynamic enough for space travel
Does warp speed require an aerodynamic hull?

I think the Pasteur is a beautiful ship.

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
