November 5, 2012 / a b d e f c g now i know my re re re's, alphabet, franchises, how many letters are there anyways?, i heard they're gonna take away letter status from Q the same way they did planet status with pluto, kids, learning by looking, letters, omg i'm gonna print this out and hang it in the nursery (full disclose: i don't have a printer or a nursery), sci-fi, space travel, spaceships, sure why not, zoom zoom!

This is a little alphabet guide of sci-fi franchise spaceships compiled by Scott Markley. They're not ALL sci-fi though, a couple of them are actual real-life ships. Can you spot them? SPOILER: The Normandy and The Liberator. "You have no clue do you?" Zero -- give me a hint. "C and O." Okay I'm going to need a bigger hint than that.

Thanks to jackie9, who knows her ABC's like the back of her hand. SAME. Wait -- there's a mole there?!

  • Guess Them All Or Die: The Alphabet Of Sci-Fi Movies
    March 12, 2012
    This is the alphabet of sci-fi films from designer Stephen Wildish (NOT Stephen Wildest, who just jumped off the roof with a hang glider made out of a refrigerator box), who created the previous series of decade movie posters. Can you guess them all? Here, I'll get you starte... / Continue →

    You're going to have to excuse me if nothing makes sense for the rest of the day because I just chugged a bottle of champagne in celebration and now things are getting...spinny. I just tried going to the bathroom and wound up tearing a towel bar off the wall. It's gonna be a ... / Continue →

    Sorry, no Mickey Mouse Club rocket? Cant respect this list.

  • NI MEN HAO-DY TRAMPOLINA

    S should be the Sulaco.

  • No Moia? Moia is 100 times better than the Falcon.

  • Ha, L is for giant space dick.

    EVERYTHING in that show looked like a penis. The shower for example: to start the flow of water you reach up and tickle/caress a ballsack and then hot steaming water cascades on face from a large tan fleshy hairy tube hanging at eye level. Look up Zev's shower scene in episode 2 for an easy example of rampant cock imagery.

  • Adonos

    Wow, it must of taken an expensive study to figure out that theres cocks in the sex show....

  • I'm pretty sure he's posted this before, and again. No Moya, No Von Braun. Whatever.

  • beansproutmomo

    Where is Moya from Farscape?!?!
    Lame.

  • cabbo

    The Normandy is more recognizable than the Nostromo, but still...

  • Ryan Boyce

    It makes me super happy that the Unity from Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri is on here. Probably my favourite computer game growing up as a kid! :)

  • guest

    Some vidja game bullshit beats the Nostromo for N? If you're going to engage in public nerdery, make a damn effort.

  • Sorry without Farscape's Moya I can not recognize this list haha

  • Tod Schwartz

    seconded

  • Awesome! Except the Challenger was a real ship. And the Quinjet wasn't capable of space flight. Just sayin'.

  • There is an obvious correlation here - the more of these you know, the less fulfilling your life is.

  • Guest

    This is the enterprise E. has some similarities to voyager, but very blatant differences. The only fail is your observation.

  • It's not a picture of Voyager. It's the Enterprise from the most recent televised Star Trek iteration, the show called "Enterprise" with that dude from Quantum Leap.

  • Guest

    Wrong Enterprise.

  • Paper Kosmonaut

    I don't see Blake's 7 Liberator anywhere, I do see too much Star trek, and why not the Orion from Kubrick's 2001? That would have fit much better. And.. Seeing the Nostromo in the list would have been nice, too.

  • Miles Curiotto

    Ishimura! BURN IT WITH FIRE!

  • After 2 prior nerds saying that the Enterprise pic is of Voyager I don't feel so bad mentioning that the Avenger's Quinjet is not a spaceship.
