No one asked you!
Wow, the designs for the U.S. Space Force look familiar.
You missed Fhloston Paradise again.
Thank you so much MetaBallStudios! Galactia X fits flawlessly with the introduction. Additionally, your models are top tier, amazing improvements!
That was the best mix!
Love it!
Having the Aurora partially submerged was funny.
and a referance to subnautica
@@Solarwhale32 before its reactor redlines and blew up
@@Solarwhale32 no.. really??
@@jackmagnium6115 even before the crash (you can see the damage as soon as you exit the pod)
@@widmo206 it got shot down by the precursor cannon right?
It always left me perplexed that Mr Dyson has stopped to build those astonishing megastructures, solar system sized spheres, just to make vacuum cleaners.
Well have you ever tried to sell a Dyson Sphere? Not a lot of market I tell you.
The Federation has no money, the Imperium spends too much on models and gold, the Forerunners have their own, the Culture don't want none, and the Xeelee why they just laugh in your face. Rude bastards they are. And where do you even put one? Lot of folks just don't have the space.
Oh but a Dyson Ball now there's the ticket. Fits right in your closet, and whether its some lad with his first flat or robot maids cleaning an entire O'Neil cylinder everyone appreciates a good vacuum cleaner.
@@blacksage2375 😂😂😂👍👍👍👍
that's how he gets his funding. You don't really think it takes five hundred bucks to make a vacuum cleaner, do you?
Also terminators
He can sell only one per system.
That Xeelee Ring is ridiculous - the video kept zooming out more and more and I was wondering what in the heck anything could be built that's so much larger than a GALAXY, only to be met with THIS. Wow... we'd be like microbes to them... [And after reading about Baxter's "Xeelee Sequence" a bit... it seems we are troublesome microbes indeed!]
It also warmed the coccles of my Trekkie heart to see so many Star Trek ships included. Bless you, laddie!
Shut up
Yeah - I'm a big fan of the books and I was expecting one of the neutron stars or something but it kept zooming out and I gave up guessing... then I saw strands appearing and I just said "the Ring, of _course_ "... was so happy to be right :D
It's nowhere near the size of a galaxy tho

Thanks
Can we appreciate the attention to detail that Subnatutica's feature ship is the only one on the water?
That is why this channel is the best among all comparison channels.
Can we appreciate the...
I noticed that too (that the aurora was in the water)
Wait what really....ok yeah nice little detail.
If we really want to appreciate the attention to detail then the Bebop should be in the water too seeing as how the Bebop lands in the water
The Aurora being part way in the water is a great detail!
It’s actually like that in the game too
Agreed. The second I noticed that detail, I knew that this video was serious.
@@jacksongaming854That's what @quantuminfinity4260 meant. The fact that this video got such a minute detail so right shows the amount of work that went into it.
Dudes, she's from the Subnautica franchise, so why is it such a big surprise to see her in the water?
I mean the only time we saw the Aurora in-game was literally in the ocean. So it wouldn't make sense if it wasn't crashed
5:58 love this shot of the original enterprise! small compared to the rest of the ships, but still massive compared to us humans
And are we supposed to call them starships when they have their own center of gravity?
Borg still a ship, but the sizes got so ridiculous that they should be called starcity
another trekkie!
As an avid Star Wars, Halo, and StarCraft fan, this video made my little nerd heart sooo happy. And also props on including some of the lesser known things here as well. I was not expecting the Anodyne Spirit or Long Night of Solace to be on there, but hey references to my favorite franchise definitely earned a like from me. Also the music was totally awesome, congrats to everyone involved with this little slice of nerd heaven.
The star forge was also really cool
seeing StarCraft things to scale is actually really cool. There's a few mods that have everything to scale. Was really hoping to see Hyperion in the video or Gantrithor.
anyone noticed they called an ISD-II an ISD-I?
I had heard that the Axiom was quite large, but seeing it in scale with other crafts I recognized really makes it seem enormous.
Yeah you don’t really get a good understanding of how big the axiom is in the movie until you see this
Dato curioso:el axioma es 3 veces más grande que el burj kalifa el edificio más alto del mundo
I love how as it pans over you get to see the Axiom and the teeny tiny little Enterprise-D in frame at once.
It also makes me appreciate the design that Pixar chose for the Axiom--it looks like a modern cruise ship, not just with its shaping, but also with how it dwarfs all the smaller ships.
What surprised me the most was Lexx with it's 10km. If you've seen the series, to me it didn't really appear that lange. Though granted, it was a long time ago and my memory is fading :)
I can totally see someone who isn't familiar with Star Trek movies seeing the Whale Probe and being like, "Wait...what? Whale probe?"
Surprised V'ger was there since technically it could be considered a life form rather than a spacecraft/base.
@@brodriguez11000i mean they also put a leviathan in here.
@@brodriguez11000 The same accounts for the Lexx and Vorlon ships, but the Moya from Farscape was missing …?
A lot of biomechanic designs came about the same time when CGI allowed for it.
@@brodriguez11000 why is there a dyson sphere, thats not even a spaceship
@@krishm7812 Well you see, you build about five trillion warp nacelles, and attach them strategically around the sphere... 😛
Thank you for including "Red Dwarf"!! Always wondered about that one. So cool
The drone operator on this project did an amazing job!
Y'all have turned these into an art form. There are many who make these kind of size comparisons but this one really shows how above and beyond your channel is. Such a great amount of detail in the models and such a wide variety of sources. Really top quality here and you've outdone yourself.
I'm late to this so I'm sure this will go unseen.. But.. the range of media, sources, and eras you have is impressive and appreciated. Awesome.
I love these videos. I look forward to them. I appreciate the real life ships as a reference and really love the range of sources. I know you can’t show everything. There are how many thousands of ships across all media…? I do wish you had included the Orville. That show is very entertaining. Looking forward to your next installment and THANKS!
yeah kudos for including blake's 7 and eve online
It’s funny you say unseen because this was the second comment that showed up for me
Issue with WHAT'S ALLOWED, CANON!!!
I don't think I ever realized just how big some of these ships are. Especially the Mass Effect ones! This video is fantastic
Did you see the 3 objects that are from the game Destiny?? Well, two of those have the capacity to destroy entire solar systems!
And the big white ball is a paracausal entity, strange I know, but that's the story
Me at 17:13: "How cool would it be if it zoomed out to the Dyson Sphere."
17:25:
Fun to see some love for Buck Rogers with the Thunderfighter. And as a 40K fanboy it's good to know we're not always the most ridicilously oversized kid on the block!
I half expected this vid to end with us zooming out from the galaxy and ending up in a marble like in the first or second Men In Black movie. "Marble: 1 inch diameter."
I was expecting a Blackstone fortress to appear, but seeing the Phalanx was alright, I guess.
or the gem on "orion's belt" ;)
Buck Rogers didn't have thunder fighters it had star fighters and Buck's was designated Starfighter #1314
The Buck Rogers fighter, which has various names, is such a good-looking craft, better I think than other McQuarrie designs like the X-Wing Fighter or the Colonial Viper.
Was interesting to see how many of the 'ridiculously oversized' ships come from games or cartoons (although I'll admit the very biggest were from serious novels).
I was expecting Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann again, since we got Cathedral Terra.
Holy crap, adding the original Ringworld and the Xeelee ring is incredible!
I think some of Banks' Culture ships/orbitals should be included :D
For scale it would also be nice to see the hexagon transmitter from Perry Rhodan. (It is built from six suns.)
@@davidwuhrer6704 Sadly Perry Rhodan is little known in the English world. I remember reading novels from the school library. Apparently Canada has more appreciation for international SF than most other places.
I honestly started expecting/hoping it would have ended with Men In Black, the cat's collar Orion's Belt.
Yessss ! 👍👍👍
Ringworld is one of my favourite SF books for about 40/45 years. I do dream to see it adapted for cinema, especially since 2009 when Avatar has been released. Because now the SFX have reach such an achievement that it could be really astonishing.
Actually, there's another book I'd really like to see as a movie : The Forever War, of Joe Haldeman.
Back to the time I read it, I just saw a few months ago Rumble Fish and I always imagined William Mandella impersonated by Nicholas Cage, and Marygay Potter by Karen Allen, or second choice, possibly by Nancy Allen if she wasn't available.
Small quibble: The "Imperial-I class Star Destroyer" you showed is actually an Imperial-II class. You can tell at a glance by the sensor bar on the top-center of the command tower. An Imperial-II has a low slung single-bar sensor array, while and Imperial-I has a much taller double-barred array with an 'X' shaped connecting structure between the bars.
This man nerds
NERD
@@SharonVeeLeehypocrit
NERRRDDDD
Good eye for detail 👌
Excellent work, nice to see some of the more obscure entries in here. When the camera pulled out to a galactic scale, I honestly thought "This is going to be something Xeelee" and wasn't disappointed. Best video I've seen of it's type.
What a way to step up your game. :) The only sad part, for me, is the lack of Homeworld representation, but maybe that'll change when Homeworld 3 (finally) releases. I do love how you're almost telling a story at this point.
Also I was kind of hoping of a small touch of the Swordfish II on the Bebop. :D
I would have loved some Iron sky
Better luck next time
How big was Sajuuk next to these things?
I also was waiting if the Banana would be there.
Imagine the radio traffic between Space Battleship Yamato and the USS Enterprise. I cannot even begin to think what those crews would say to each other.
"Don't make any sudden moves. Look at the SIZE of those things!"
"Captain, there is a ship in front of us, it looks like an old japanese warship from the earths second world war."
"Hail frequencies, Uhura. Let's see, if they are friends with Mr. Sulu"
"This is the Yamato. Do you know how to get to the Magellan cloud?"
"Yes, but there is a great barrier hindering us from getting there"
"Don't worry, we have warp"
"How long do you want to travel? We would need 100 years with Warp 13"
"We plan to do the trip in 180 days maximum."
Another ship arrives:
"We are the Borg, we want to get your wave motion drive, it's even faster than our Transwarp"
"Eat our Wave Motion Gun"
Uses Gun
"That was overkill. You destroyed the whole Unimatrix Zero"
"Well, too bad. We have to go to Iscandar now. Bye"
We have a wave motion gun that can destroy an entire planet.
Uh-huh. And we have a corbomite warhead which will destroy both of our ships if you even think about attacking us.
@@EdKolis ultimate borg answer
@@julianozaur444 Actually that was Kirk's bluff. He probably thinks the captain of the Yamato is bluffing about that wave motion gun!
Fantastic seeing these ships up close and personal. The Tardis. The Falcon. The Halo. Only one complaint: nothing from Farscape? Moya, Command Carrier, Dreadnaught.
Despite the sizes of other stuff in this video, I never truly respected how huge a standard Imperial Star Destroyer really was until I saw how small metropolis buildings were beneath it and how many city blocks you could layer on top of one another before matching it's mass. The sheer number of people you can fit on that thing is insane. And that's a standard capital ship.
I finally truly understand why people say the Executor is impractically huge. The work it takes to keep the factory building at my job functional is bad enough. The Executor though? And you're just gonna send that into the middle of a battlefield where it is THE prime target? 😅
That is basically how it played out. Turns out the entire ship could be crippled by one collision with the bridge. (I should point out that the only competent Imperial in the Star Wars universe, Thrawn, thought that the Executor was a terrible idea. And you should have heard what he had to say about the Death Stars.)
happy to see The Wandering Earth being regarded as a starship
same, whole earth as ship..
We are on it, and we need it to keep working .
Not the first time Earth itself has been turned into a starship. There was Stanley Schmidt's "Lifeboat Earth," which also involved Earth fleeing a cosmic catastrophe. And then there was Edmond Hamilton's "Thundering Worlds," which cranked everything up to eleven by having the ENTIRE SOLAR SYSTEM (except the Sun) turned into a ginormous fleet of humungous starships ... that ends up in a DOGFIGHT WITH ANOTHER SUCH FLEET ...
"Wondrous is our great blue ship
That sails around the mighty sun
And joy to everyone that rides along."
Electric Light Orchestra
The fact that the Phalanx, something bigger than both Death Stars, did a ramming maneuver against a Blackstone Fortress during the fall of Cadia is a very 40k thing to happen.
It's always nice seeing the Puddle Jumper and Atlantis in these sort of videos,but I hope we'll get to see some of the other ships from Stargate in there one day,like the 302/3/4's or the Supergate,
The size of Atlantis was a bit underwhelming though…
Would have loved to see StarCraft 2's Spear of Adun in this. (Estimated to be 74.4 km long, so it would have been between the Elysium and Keepstar.) Then again, I always want to see more StarCraft and especially Protoss stuff.
The models are getting more and more detailed. I love it!
Yes
They are not his models lmao
Love it
@@rolandmine6693 Even so, compare it with his older videos. The models were uncolored and the environment was way simpler. Now we got full color, more models, and even real life cities for scale.
The Aurora being partially submerged in the water was an S tier creative decision
Cant believe the Juggernaut is that small 😮
I always wondered how large the almighty, dreadnaught, and leviathan were in relation to each other, honestly surprised how small the leviathan was in comparison
I was thinking theleviathan should be way bigger than almighty and dreadnought
@@codnetzrollerThe leviathan always seemed massive because it was next to Nessus which a tiny planet.
The Almighty was portrayed as much larger than Mercury which is larger than Nessus so, to me it makes sense that the both of these structures share roughly the same size.
As for the Dreadnaught, it can be seen from far even tho it’s in the middle of the rings of Saturn which are massive so yeah.
Everything seems pretty right to me regarding Destiny in this video
Great Video! As a huge Sci-Fi fan it is cool to see the size of all of these vessels put into perspective. However, the USS Cygnus is missing from "The Black Hole." Hans Reinhardt's ship was over a mile long. Also, there is no ship longer than Spaceball One, period....lol.😊
Music was on point for this one!
It came together extremely well, this is such an improvement from the previous video overall!
Martin O’Donnell if my memories was right… what a awesome era Bungie for ever in our hearts
I was really glad to see all the classics like Wallace & Grommit, Gurren Lagan, and MIB included in the video. Great stuff!
Yea they didn't add some of the star trek ships but that's okay because that list would take forever lol
What's mib?
@@Solarwhale32Men In Black
Ratchet & Clank, too
And Dragon Ball.
8:07 love how the aurora is in the same position floating there as in actually is in subnautica
Happy that you included the expanse in this! Such an underrated series that doesn’t get enough attention
It's actually very scary how tiny the International Space Station is. I don't mean in relation to the fictional ships, I mean compared to the buildings in the background.
Well, it's expensive AF to send stuff to orbit... $ 10,000 per pound, approximately, with current technology.
@@carmonaconsulting
Pretty much. If we want to start exploring space more seriously, we need to build shipyards and material storage stations with long-term stable orbits, pulling materials from the asteroid belts, instead of from Earth.
@@manictigerthe Space Elevator will help tremendously at that
@@RealNameNeverUsed
Could use both. Space elevator for things that can't be found outside of Earth and solar-sail/rocket (return trip) drones for mining, processing and cargo haul of materials. As tech progresses, the "waste" could also be used, maybe as landfill for orbital habitats.
The thing is massive; it is a metal modular vehicle the size of an actual football field. I think it's a pretty monumental achievement of human ingenuity that we are able to to have built a structure of that scale that has stayed operational in low Earth orbit for decades. One piece at a time, in little modules that are shot up I to the sky by rockets using refined, ancient carcasses and swamp sludge for fuel. It is a mind-blowing accomplishment. But, uh, yeah... "scary". 🤷🏼
Props to the camera person who flew beyond our galaxy to get that last epic shot 🙌🏻
Nobody flies into space... 😂
They use these little drones nowadays. 🤓
Im honestly surprised to see that they got everyone to get their ships together for this video.
Prups tu kamera person ho fluw biyon awer galaxsi to get det las epik sot 🙌
Overused and Cringe af joke.
@@Sumirevins You're overused and cringe af.
Awesome job, missed the Razor Crest of mandolarian
Thanks for the great 3D comparison of starships. You did your homework, and great detail. Really enjoyed it!
The SDF-1 and the mother ship from V are rarely mentioned these days and it brings a smile to my face to see them here.
Yes, me too, I liked seeing the SDF-1 Macross on the screen, but the cannon class that measures 5.5 km long from Macross II was missing
@@ExceedX3 Macross II isn't canon.
Agreed re: the V Mothership. I thought it was said that it was 3 mi across in the original mini series as they arrived (re-watching that and The Final Battle on Amazon, I own there), so I was getting pissed that it was overlooked...and, what do you know if that FIVE MILE SOB didn't plop down from out of the sky? I'm a happ(ier) guy, now...that is, until they serve me my bowl of crow! 🤣
Props to the video maker; this is great stuff! 👍🏻
My only nitpick about the SDF-1 is that we don't see her in humungous robot mode.
I saw that game-accurate sunken Aurora. Nice.
Have you ever included ships from Farscape on your videos? If you have I haven't seen it. Farscape has great ships. Crichton's module, Moya, Talyn, Peacekeepers, Scarrans, Luxans. Worth looking into including on your videos.
Wondered that as well. Would have great to see Moya in this video.
YES!!! Thank you for including the Strato XL at 0:45!!! I'm a HUGE fan of the movie and the show! You are SO awesome for that! 🤩
Zooming from time to time on real references like the human on the Millenium Falcon and the planes is a really good idea. At a certain point it's hard to estimate the size compared to usual objects.
At the end, when you did the massive zoom out, I thought you were doing the galaxy in a marble from Men in Black.
I love that you included all the notable ships from Gunbuster, as well as the Xeelee Ring!
what even is that thing? I was expecting the final zoom out in the video to be like rest of Gurren Lagann since it's the only thing offhand i can think of that has casual galaxy sized craft
@@RedShirtGuy96 Basically, the Xeelee Ring is a megastructure the Xeelee decided to create when they realized that they were losing their war against the Photino Birds, creatures made of Dark Matter, which outnumbers all normal matter in the universe more than six times over. The Xeelee Ring is basically a portal into another universe, which the Xeelee used as an escape hatch, so that they, and all life in the universe made of normal matter like humans, most other aliens, etc, could flee from the Photino Birds, who wanted to make the entire universe uninhabitable to life made of normal matter as part of terraforming it to be more comfortable for themselves.
@@lordviridian1458 Thats pretty creative since its honestly hard to suspend my disbelief around the logistics of constructing even a dyson sphere sized megastructure, but with dark matter it makes a lot more sense. If they could harvest and manipulate it to their wishes, it could be any size they want.
@@RedShirtGuy96 Oh, they're not using Dark Matter, that's what the Photino Birds, their enemies, do. They use grand-scale gravity manipulation to move galaxies and galactic superclusters into position to be used as building material over billions of years. They have time-travel, so they travel to the early ages of the universe and set the portion that would become that galactic cluster into motion so that it is in the right spot when they go back to the present.
The Xeelee are considered one of the most powerful factions in all of science fiction, comparable to the Time Lords from Doctor Who.
@@lordviridian1458 Damn that's badass, they spawncamp the early universe to get the best protomatter
Incredible work; huge kudos! The music particularly stood out as well-chosen and excellently timed to the reveall of some of the ships. Did I detect some of The Expanse's theme music in there?
I definitely wasn't expecting the rocket ship from Wallace and Gromit to make an appearance, but that was the moment I decided to give this video a thumbs-up. Only moments later, I knew I would also be leaving a positive comment, because the inclusion of the Rocinante warmed my heart. By the way, the inclusion of the Millennium Falcon actually helped me better grasp the size of many of the smaller ships, since I used to work at Disneyland and have a good sense of how large it is, thanks to the 1:1 scale model there.
I was worried, however, that you would only be including maybe one or possibly two ships from each major franchise in this comparison, leaving the rest up to our imagination. Imagine my unbridled joy, then, when the MCRN Donnager appeared! And then the Nauvoo! And then the Sol Ring Gate! I almost died from happiness.
There's not much else I can say that hasn't alreody been said in the comments, but I think the thing that would really take this video to infinity and beyond would have been The Turnip from Lightyear (just kidding, it wasn't a very good movie, and I'm glad you didn't include any space ships from it).
16:45 "Earth is a startship?"
"Always has been."
Amazing video! :D
The movie,The wandering earth humans turned earth into a spacecraft the size of,well,itself
Wow, this is the most comprehensive starship size comparison yet - and in color! Love how you mixed in some classic sci-fi music, too!
Amazing how the whole galaxy came together for this one video 😊
Absolutely, fantastic video. I was very very surprised to see so many franchises compared here. The only entry I feel that deserves a spot is the "Arwing" and "Great Fox" from the 'Star Fox' franchise, but that's splitting hairs. Amazing video
It made me so happy to see Rama in there. People often overlook it.
It isn't much to look at, it's big, but dull.
@@davehood2667 It's what's inside that counts.
Great job on this video. This is basically the original video but improved in every way and with more starships included.
I get the feeling space has an e-peen problem.
And in colour!
Thanks for calling it the Slave I and not the Firespray.
I'm glad that Spaceball 1 was included. 11:50
13:00 thanks for the interstellar music. It gives me tears every time. In a good way
I'll admit, I'm saddened by the lack of Starfox...but I literally shrieked with joy for Treasure Planet!!
Interesting. The Flight of the Navigator ship looks so small, but on reflection it did fit in quite a small hangar - it just always looks bigger to me in flight. One I wish you had included was Fireball XL5.
That was a trip. Thank You in producing this.
I love how some of the ships are hundreds or thousands of kilometers long but they still have detail like they're a high-rise building. The "windows" of the Dreadnought 16:19 are like the size of a city...
At that scale, even earth does have windows/dots at the size of a city
@@Dawn-Shade ok mr pedant. Actually, Earth does not have perfectly square, evenly arrayed, and evenly lit "windows" of this size.
Each of those windows is more like a hole into a significant area of ship, although it really doesn't look that big in game...
The star trek additions were great. The whale probe and the Dyson sphere. Loved it
I was glad they included V'Ger, but they missed out Yonada the hollowed-out asteroid generation ship from "For The World Is Hollow And I Have Touched The Sky" and thr titular planet killer in "The Doomsday Machine"
Great video. Would have also liked to have seen more space game based comparisons such as stellaris since the scale difference from strike craft fighters to titan class ships to the variaty of different megastructures (guess ringworlds and dyson spheres would be the same as in this video / dependent of which star they are built around).
Great video. Thanks for getting Space Above and Beyond in the line up. Just wonder where the Saratoga would have landed.
As always, big shout-out to the camera man panning all the way out of the galaxy so we can see the Xeelee Ring. Steady hands even though it must have been quite brisk out there.
I'm sure they gave him a coat to wear while filming outside of our atmosphere... 🤣
15:35 So happy to finally see the Dammerung be listed on one of these; easily one of my favorite ships in sci-fi, with the literal mega-city inside of it and the giant sonic cannons that it can fire.
loved that they added the theme music from some of the shows as the background score!
Awesome video! I love scifi star ships. Amazed by the size comparison in relation to the stadium the city and the Earth itself as the Wandering Earth. Amazing. Thank you 😊
Thank you for including the Heart of Gold from the BBC television version of Hitchhiker's Guild to the Galaxy, cica 1981.
Just rewatched that for the first time since it originally aired on PBS in the US!
Brilliant that you’ve included the Jupiter Mining Corporation’s “Red Dwarf”, as it’s often gets left out in other ship size comparison videos. But, concerning the ship from Blake 7, you got it pointing backwards, as the green bulbous part is it’s engine, and the antennas faced the front.
We're looking at it in a rear three-quarter view, it's bow-in to the city
@AndreiTupolev:
Then why is the Starship Enterprise, which is right next to it, facing the other way?
Thanks for including SpaceX Starship, I'm lucky to see it with my own eyes. Seeing it with the Bebop and Normandy makes feel some type of way.
So glad to see the Expanse ships here. Such a fan of the Roci/Tachi. Would have been cool to see the USS Sulaco included but I get you probably only have so much time. I especially appreciate the Subscribe banner appearing at 6:54 - well played.
That Borq Cube is Terrifying ' Damn near 2 + miles long on each end ' along with that V ' visitor's ship , and the City Destroyer , from Independence Day ! Just massively Huge Ships !
As a Halo fan, I've always loved the Covenant ship High Charity that is home to several different alien species, and the Forerunners ability to make space stations larger than planets with their own biomes and ecosystems. Man I love scifi
Well if you are going to invade you got to do it with style and be intimidating, so size always counts hehe.
@@jameswatson5807 But in Independence Day the mothership was destroyed by a tiny two man ship. So maybe it is how you use it!
@@nonconsensualopinion That was just dumb luck, the aliens had the upper hand from the get go.
What about the Xeelee Ring? An unimaginably colossal structure (the supposed Great Attractor that is _gobbling up galaxies)_ built by a god-like type IV civilization for the single purpose of *escaping an even more terrifying enemy in a losing war.*
Love that you not only reuploaded the video, but also improved it and added new ships! Imagine if this became a regular thing, adding new stuff from time to time! If so, I would love seeing you adding the Comet Observatory from Super Mario Galaxy, it would be interesting seeing it in perspective compared to other ships
I was thinking that exact thing!
Could also add the actual island of Manhattan as it was domed, had a forcefield put around it, and was launched into space to travel the stars in the "Cities in Flight" set of stories/books by James Blish.
Yeah, this was really awesome that you added more! LOVED that you added Jimmy's small rocket from the JN movie, you're awesome for that!!! You could add the giant chicken ships from that movie, too; bet one of them would be about the size of the smaller Star Destroyer from Star Wars, and the transport chicken ship that carried the kids and the parents back to earth I imagine would be around half the size of the second Death Star... 😉 Just thought I'd throw that out there, being a huge fan of the show and all... 😆
I would have also liked to see Discworld, with Great A'Tuin and the 4 Elephants Brilia, Tubul, Jerakeen, and the Great T'Pon. The disk is huge, 10,000 miles and A'Tuin is even bigger!
Yes! I'd love to see ships from Star Fox as well
Here's a list of more ships to include: Arwing (Starfox), Great Fox (Starfox), Frieza's Spaceship (Dragon Ball Z), Hunter Class Gunship (Metroid Prime 2), Frigate Orpheon (Metroid Prime), G.F.S. Olympus (Metroid Prime 3) Leviathan Meteor (Metroid Prime 3).
12:40 you can see a star destroyer compared to an executor
I love the way you use familiar items like people, aircraft & ships to give us a sense of scale; I also love how you use sometimes obscure vessels, like the human & alien ones from Titan A.E.!
Also, did anyone watching the movie Oblivion actually believe the Tet was of human construction? The timeline implied it was built *after* the alien devastation...which had buried entire cities. I was suspicious the whole movie & was rewarded in the end.
The sheer *size* of the thing -- as this video demonstrates -- demands a fully functional high tech industrial complex, not devastated infrastructure left from the Moon exploding!
So glad to keep seeing The Lexx show up in these kind of videos
@@Sirstas79 I think it'd be interesting to see one of these size comparison videos about the Lexx universe! Not just ships, but the assorted stations, Cluster (?), & giant insects!
@@Sirstas79 There is no way it's that huge though.
Pretty sure the Tet was wholly alien in origin. (SPOILERS) but if I recall correctly, tom cruises mission was just to go to one of Jupiter's moons, and then they found the Tet while on route and investigated it. That's when the Tet pulled them in, cloned Tom Cruise and girl (can't remember her name), then invaded the Earth with an army of them.
@@beaglator That's the backstory that was eventually revealed. When all we had to go on was our 2 main characters, they believed the fiction that the Tet was a human colony ship taking on water in preparation to go settle another world. That's the timeline I had trouble with: the idea that humans built the thing to flee the devastated Earth!
There was even a hint that I picked up on: if pre devastation Earth was really advanced enough to build the Tet, why were they using black&white video communication? High-tech housing for the maintenance worker & his companion, but b&w viewscreen. It didn't make sense.
These videos are so addictive; The graphics. The research that went into the size of every ship, etc. And, I really like how you combined fantasy ships and real-world ships.
Nice. The only one missing I was hoping to see was the guitar-shaped spaceships from the Boston album covers.
Gotta admit the detail and source material was well done…this is pretty EPIC…so cool to see the actual size comparison…GREAT JOB.
I was so happy when the Excellion, Eltreum and Buster Machine 3 were included.
Also HOLY HELL Oryx's Dreadnaught is WAY bigger than I thought it was! It's the size of a country!!
Only Bungie bro think someone need a ship that size
@@lightninggaming016 Consider the fact that Oryx's Throne World is his ship as well
@@rithvikmuthyalapati9754 That, and it's crafted from the dead body of Akka, his worm god
There were only 2 starships I wanted to see that I had doubts about seeing: Aurora from Subnautica and Atlantis from Stargate. Was not disappointed. Saw some starships that further pleasantly surprised me. Awesome video.
Shame it missed everything from the Culture novels, would have liked to see a GSV in the mix, plus they have rings like the ringworld one.
Almost wish that, when they got to the edge of the galaxy, they put : "maximum distance of a 7 chevron address (Stargate): one galaxy"
Im definitely missing Destiny from SGU.. thats such a beautiful ship.
@@mattc3581 i was hoping also Culture is slept on.
I'm happy you didn't forget the underrated Stargate franchise! Would have loved to see more of it, like wraith motherships and all the daedalus and prometheus class spaceships, but I understand you can't put everything from every fandom out there. Awesome video!
Love your size comparison stuff. How bout one for largest ocean going ships?
Every new ship revealed brought cries of "oh wow! damn!" From my lips. This has got to be the best ship comparison ever! Ships old and new... Real life and blue...
Most of them in my imagination, I flew...
I had no idea that Orxy’s Dreadnaught was that massive, that & I’ve never really known how big the Nemesis was
It’s pretty cool how there are two sources for the size (the real comet in the intro cutscene and Saturn’s rings) and they’re both give almost the same size with maybe a ~100km
Oryx’s ship is a thicc boy
Wow!! This was such an amazing vid to watch!! Thanks a lot!! Your talent is beyond!
It's a real treat to see the original design of The Heart Of Gold, as described in the book, in the film it's a completely different design.
17:00 beautiful music cue as the Ark appears.
Halo theme)
A.) Gorgeous choice for music
B.) I can't believe you included ships from Gunbuster, SO cool!
C.) AND the Ship of the Imagination from Cosmos, did NOT expect that. Though it would have been cool to see it show up twice, at its normal size AND its smallest microscopic size, it easily would've been the smallest ship on the list.
D.) Sobering to find out the SDF-1 isn't even as big as a star destroyer, these vids do put these things into perspective
E.) Well, now I have to look up Xeelee Ring because that thing is NUTS
Yes
In the novel _Ring_ (Stephen Baxter 1994) it's called Bolder's Ring after the first human to see it. What the Xeelee call it nobody knows, because they're famously enigmatic and uncommunicative -- but given its function, probably "Emergency Exit."
Thanks for the video! The only series/structure that I could think to add would be the Mothership/Flagship from Homeworld
I love that the ishimura and the ISD were next to each other, you just KNOW thats the Vector.
I love these size comparison videos. And you rendered every ship just like they are in their original source materials, even the Aurora from Subnautica being partially submerged in water. Absolutely amazing video.
The aurora isn’t damaged sadly but that’s because of lore from the game but yeah in same position
Star Wars, Star Trek, Dune, Independence Day, Destiny, Halo, Mass Effect, Warframe, Warhammer, StarCraft, and Gunbuster all have giant ships.
it makes me very happy that you included Sidonia :)
Haha, I love that the Aurora is sitting partly in the water, just like after it crashes on 4546b. I'm surprised by the lack of the Kushan Mothership from Homeworld though!
It's actually impressive that the super star destroyer is twice as long as Spaceballs 1. I love the Spaceballs 1 because it's one of the few giant ships that you truly understand just how long it is because at the beginning of the movie they just kind of show off the whole ship and it takes at least three minutes to show the whole ship
There's a few things that I'm sad didn't get included, namely a Starfleet Shuttle, DS-9, and a Firefly Class.
Yeah, I missed the Serenity too :(
I'd like to see the Orville!
I was hoping for a Viper from Battlestar and the Sulaco from Aliens.
Add anything from Starfox to the list of stuff that didn't get included, along with the Lor Starcutter and Access Ark from Kirby.
Sad there wasnt an Ark to compliment the Nemesis.
Happy you included the SDF 1 from robotech
