Star Destroyer (the pass over shot in the opening sequence of Star Wars is a seminal moment).2. Probably the Millenium Falcon since it could twist and turn into those narrow asteroid gorges; but for me the coolest is the Eclipse Class Super Star Destroyer from Dark Empire - that is such an awesomely imposing ship design.3. Possibly the Liberator from Blakes Seven* or the Tardis from Doctor Who. You also have to give kudos to both the Tie Fighter and and Shadow Vessels - both of which made great use of sound effects as well as great design.*The design of which was "borrowed" for B5s Crusade series flagship the Excalibur.4. The Space Shuttle in the opening credits of Enterprise looks real enough to me. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f61b.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":p" title="Stick out tongue    :p"  data-smilie="7"data-shortname=":p" />Other than that perhaps Earth Force Destroyers or Fighters from B5 or their counterparts from Space Above & Beyond.5. Star Trek has a lot of poorly designed ships (not from an aesthetic point of view; the Enterprise incarnations 'look' great) from a functional standpoint. The Scimitar ship in Nemesis was hilarious, few seem to have much of a clue how to design a decent warship in the 24th-century.</blockquote>
