This poster is 60" x 80" large. The yellow sphere in the upper right corner is the Fesarius from Star Trek. The Doomsday Machine is just above the Borg Cube on the right side of the poster.

Is this, like, only for STAR TREK or sci fi spaceships in general? I'm trying to find Nostromo, Sulaco etc., but can't find them. Wish there were a bigger picture available.

It has ships from just about every TV show and film you can think of. They left out the Death Star because it was too large if it were to scale.

Thor, look to the left of the wingtip of the large triangular shaped vessel, bottom right quadrant. It's so tiny it's hard to see.

It looks like there are a lot of ships from the Star Wars Expanded Universe (i.e. novels and games that never appeared in the films themselves).

I also see a lot of ships from David Weber's Honor Harrington novels.

Here is a link to a high-res version of the chart:

Great stuff!

Thor, look to the left of the wingtip of the large triangular shaped vessel, bottom right quadrant. It's listed as a Weyland Yutani Orbital Refinery.

The Nostromo tug itself is listed as "Wayland-Yutani Corporation Lockmart CM 88B Bison M-Class Tow Freighter" and the Sulaco is listed as "US Colonial Marine Corps Conestoga-Class Assault Ship".

Yes, you're right. I was thinking of the refinery vessel instead of the Nostromo by itself.

Cool poster though I'm unfamiliar with most of those ships.

The big UFO one is INDEPENDENCE DAY, right?

I can't find the Sulaco! The assault ship mentioned above is only PART of the Sulaco.

Yes. The mothership.

Hey baby, did you ever see a starship this big before??!

Zooming in I found the Mother ship from CEOT3K and the Valley Forge.

Awesome to see, though I'll go to the other "smaller" original pics so I can see the really smaller ones clearly. hehe

Undoubtedly nice work, but pointless without TBs 3 & 5... frown

No, that's the Sulaco. It's just really small compared to most of the other ships in the chart. The description "US Colonial Marine Corps Conestoga-Class Assault Ship" refers to the class of vessel that the Sulaco belongs to. The Sulaco is just to the left of the description.

Really? It's "just" 350 meters long? That's certainly not the impression I get from the massive vistas in the film, and what we see of its interior. Yeah, it's obviously smaller than the Nostromo -- which is basically a floating refinery/city -- but still.

Yeah well, maybe the person who came up with that measurement (even if it's an "official" measurement) got it wrong a bit. Dunno. Oh, and the Nostromo is just the tug that pulls the refinery, not the refinery itself.
