Normally, this would be the cue for a certain Star Trek fan to pipe up, and add in his 2 cents.

Firefly is probably one of the best designs for a spaceship I've seen: it has a forward section, a spinning aft and engines are far removed from the cabin. All three of these would be essential to any craft, yet they are almost never includedl i've seen it done maybe two or three other times.


That's what a ship is, you know - it's not just a keel and a hull and a deck and sails, that's what a ship needs.

Elon Musk makes more than cars and rockets. See his line of flamethrowers, mezcal, and Cybertruck-inspired beer.
