If you had your own spaceship

[heavens-champion 1,879]

If you had your own spaceship, what would you want it to have?

[CheeryFox 23,747]

Something with superluminal motion and equipped with molecular synthesizers for all my sci-fi needs. 

[Thuja 3,655]

An indoor Aquaponics area would be cool, so I can grow my own food and get fish at the same time.

I woud love to have a medical bay with me, maybe make some friends with some adventurous doctors or biologists and just go to different planets, perhaps with a section in that level for geologists too? 

I would love to have around(or up to) 50 people to bring along and explore space, so having a good amount of space for living would be great!!  Some nice rooms with ample space for people to relax in.  Maybe a library somewhere in there?  Definitely a gym will be added there, exercise is important!!!

Oh!  Some linguists too!!!  If there're any alien life forms out there, I'm sure they'd be happy to learn a new language?

If I had a spaceship, I'd use it for exploration and science but I understand that some defenses would be necessary too.  I think some security people would be nice?  Maybe instead of 50 maybe 75???

Some day I'll get to writing the fanfiction I planned around this bunch.

A time rotor is a MUST!

The speed and maneuverability of the Millennium Falcon.

I would want it to be similar to Ryo-Ohki from Tenchi Muyo complete with its non-spaceship cabbit form.

 

[Denim&Venöm 14,331]

Fast transport. Protective shielding from the horrors of space. Good defensive systems. A sapient AI. Comfy like a luxury cruise liner. 

So basically it's the Enterprise D on the inside, and looks like this on the outside.

Maybe I like my ship being retro but I like solar sails on this ship.

Computer, load every episode of 'My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic' into memory.

Extrapolate for holo-simulation data.

Run program.

Equestria on the Holodeck...I am so there!

[SharpWit 2,311]

Insurance, hangar, maybe gas for it 

[Twilight Luna 30,114]

A functioning life support system would be nice, replicators, and a holodeck 

Have @Phosphor and Twily be in charge of astrometrics.

If I could find a way to explore Jupiter....

[Phosphor 11,495]

I would want some device that could allow faster than light travel. Light speed is way too slow to explore the universe. 

Also need a particle disintegrator beam for those annoying asteroids

I don't know of any space probe that could survive Jupiter's atmosphere, but I could lend you an X-ray telescope. It should penetrate some of those thick clouds.  Just be sure your space suit is lined with lead. The transmitter on that thing puts out a lot of hard x-rays

Woohoooo! *Packs up space gear  

[Nsxile 19,723]

Life support systems, first and foremost, and the usual things a spaceship would need to traverse space e.g. navigation systems, landing gear, oxygen, fuel etc.. Secondly, a warp drive of some kind for exploration. Thirdly, invulnerability shields or some type of force-field around the ship to prevent objects damaging the craft. Fourth, a somewhat powerful weapon of some kind... Preferably a laser cannon. Fifth, a cloaking device, so that no one can ever find it when I've landed and parked it. Sixth, a pinpointing device, so I know where the ship is once I've cloaked it and left it.

I'll take this one from Treasure Planet. It has old world styling combined with sci-fi possibilities. It runs on solar sails and apparently creates its own local atmosphere in space. Very cool.
