What is the name of your exploration ship?
- Thread starter Tom Areani
- Start date
DBX: Sifeae Wespe
(“Wespe” – “wasp” in german, Sifeae – a sector in which I’ve made my first Elite rank with this babe)
Jumpoconda: Indie Anka
(for BGS-impartiality, in russian also a carriwitchet for female name Anka, Indians and some “domestic” jokes)
DSSA-Conda: Electric Delight
(also some kind of joke, if somebody still knows a French band “Rockets” with this hit song and video of 1979 – true sight to behold)
AspX (also for DSSA): Gadget Hackwrench
(ad honorem to a character of „Chip 'n Dale: Rescue Rangers“ series: Gadget is a female mouse who is the pilot, mechanic and inventor. Fuel- und Repair limpet controllers included).

My current exploration ship is a Sidewinder names Clarence.
My previous exploration ship was a Vulture named Tribore.
My one before that was a Beluga named Quinn.
I have a Clipper waiting for my next expedition named Mooncake.
All of my ships, not just those built for exploration, are named after Final Space characters (I think I have the entire cast at this point). It's one of my favorite shows.

There are too many stars here,
and the heavens are never truly dark.
Oh, clouds can disguise it,
but even they don't hide the light.
Crowds of people move to and fro,
pursuing their motivations of the moment.
It seems to me a sad thing
to be so crowded, yet so alone.
Growing up on a far shore,
I did not know what a goose was.
Yet, in this time and at this place,
I can clearly hear the call of the wild geese.
I know that soon, I must go.
Humanity and I no longer share the same things,
and soon, I know I must again follow
the Wild Goose on to Distant Worlds.
A Dolphin named FGES Wild Goose

I particularly like this one, right up my street. My call sign on all my ships is X4E because ATC always announce it as 'X-ray for Echo' and I like the trippy idea of x-raying echoes.
I'm changing the name of my Dolphin explorer to 'Spirit of the Age' (Hawkwind song, check it out).
It's a sort of swipe (ship name, not the song) at this age of FLEET CARRIERS. Just a lonely CMDR in a small ship, floating around space, not some bloke in his 100ft Winnebago glamping it up at Glastonbury.
One of my favourite HW songs, along with Lighthouse.
Colonia Dream, after the station out there. I pop in and say hello whenever I'm in the neighbourhood.
One of mine is named Wurd of the Waynhim.
Although I'm out near the core piloting AspX Do As You Ought II right now
Damn you hasty early adopters!Now returning to the bubble to finally buy my FC (yes, I'm a bit late to the party).
