Just dug out and listened to Tim Blake's Crystal Machine for the first time in yonks. Still as incredible today.
What is the name of your exploration ship?
- Thread starter Tom Areani
- Start date
AspX - MCS Skywalker
Took my first Sag A*/BP/Colonia roundtrip in it, and in that time, the final Star Wars movie came out. Hence the name
Imperial Clipper - MCS Sakura
The actual ship in use on thr CEA2 expedition.
I am also interested in the Nintendo Wii + its games (Retro time!) and in the games on that console, more especially Wii Sports/Party, there is a (pretty skilled) CPU opponent called Sakura. She directly caught my eye when I played Bowling on the Wii as a kid (she popped up in the background). That was love on the first sight and since then, she is my favorite Wii Sports character 
What means this "MCS"? It stands simply for: "MaultierColt's Ship"

My Asp Explorer Asparagoose is gathering dust in space dock while I’m playing about in inhabited space, but in a week or so I’m going to have it resprayed in a nice red scheme (red ones go faster, innit) and rename it after a local hero, the Juninho Paulista. UTB!
Exploration ship for my 42 Galactic regions tour (two third finished so far, currently in the bubble again):
T-6 "Nomadius" (ID "T-Sexy" )
Recently accquired and engineered: Anaconda "Maxaconda" (jump range 80 LYs)
Currenty outfitting and refueling my FC "V.P.I. Circus Maximus" (V.P.I. = Vehiculum Publicum Imperatoris)
You see I have a faible for Latin (real or fictional sounding) names.

I'll throw in my hat here.
Flew my AspX, Myo, for a long time. As in Paula Myo from Peter Hamilton's Commonwealth Saga.
After returning to the Bubble and starting potato surveys, I flew about 80k ly in my Phantom, Watergrass, from Ann Leckie's Ancilary series (my heart is a fish...)
And lately, looking to go back to basics, I have been shaking down this Lemon that I bought and kitted for 30+ ly:
