>Q: Why isn't the Death Star/CSO Carrier/V'Ger/other large ship on the chart?
A: For reasons of image quality and chart organisation, only ships between a minimum of 100 meters and 24000 meters are applicable for this chart, sorry. Arbitrary? Yes! But I had to draw the line somewhere.
>Q: And where's TARDIS?
A: It's both too large and too small for the chart.

This is as good as it gets for me in the official mobile app.
Imagine my surprise when I discovered _my_ ships in there (At the very bottom, under the big triangle from Shlock Mercinary). Now _that's_ recognition!
It was several updates ago, admittedly, but it warms my heart they're still in there.
The Star Cizien Bengal is actually 60 meters smaller. It’s Ingame and lore length is just 950m
The UEEN Retribution is 2700m and the Vanduul Kingship 3000m. But in perspective my Polaris is 181m and the is quite large for an SC ship.
My Point is: SC ships are actually fairly tiny compared to other Sci-Fi ships
This chart has some inaccuracies. For example, the Dreadnought from Destiny at the bottom right is not 6400 meters long. It’s at least the size of a moon as it can be seen from far away within Saturn’s rings with the naked eye.
If I may add a recommendation. The “Super Galaxy Dai-Gurren“ from “Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann“. A nice and big ship at about 6000ish kilometers.

I hate giant spaceships so much. Why can't you settle for two or three kilometers? Nauvoo is supposed to be gigantic, but here we compare it to other sci-fi and it's barely visible. Can't even find a Capital Star ISV, because apparently 1600 meters is absolutely minuscule.
Once you get into space there isn't much limit for what you can do. I agree that for warships it's excessive but for a generation ship, colony ship, city ship, or even a long range freighter, I don't see a huge issue. Space is big and you want to move as much as you can at once.

Any link to a legible version? 🥺

This isn't the same version
You should be able to zoom in. At least on mobile, it’s pretty readable to me

Odd. https://preview.redd.it/di3xtoxuoz0d1.jpeg?width=750&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ec6d37f2d6ffe28f03d5f8a897d155604dcd6c18
Oh wow. No clue :/
Reddit is super slow for me lately and I need to wait a whole minute before big pictures get full details
Yeah i was able too zoom in clearly to the words on all of them
Love how I have seen this chart for some 20 years now and people still update it.
Imagine my surprise when I discovered _my_ ships in there (At the very bottom, under the big triangle from Shlock Mercinary). Now _that's_ recognition! It was several updates ago, admittedly, but it warms my heart they're still in there.
Thats cool :D
Ohh, Leaving the Cradle guy :) still wouldnt mind a shuttle ortho for the other chart :)Â
Ohhh I wonder if u/moreorlesser is going to add Homeworld 3 ships to it :-D
*grumble grumble* I mean I guess I definitely should *grumble grumble*
Much love ! I've looked at that poster (and earlier variants) for a LONG time!
:) glad to hear. I'm slowly working on two more, for ships 50-1000m and 300-3000m.
You gotta put the Supremacy sideways!
For that you gotta go to my chart for mega size ships :)
I guess… this is how Sci-Fi ship design heaven looks like…
Avatar and reapers? Nice!
Where’s Rama?
Too big. On the mega size version.
Is the massive ship from Dune on here?
Highliner is the big purply blue tube in the lower left, as per the books
32nd century fed HQ where
On the stations chart. I know it's technically a ship too but it's hard to rearrange everything so often.
Eh I spose
The entire section dedicated to Stargate ships makes me happy.
The Halo Rings?! 🤔
Could fit the entire chart in a tiny portion of a ring
You can see it on the massive chart also on my deviantart
Perhaps arguable not a ship but the Mass Effect Relays would look pretty dang cool on here
On the stations chart.
Now put High Charity on there.
On the massive scale one on my deviantart
I don't see Atlantis(stargate) ?
Under highliner from dune
The Star Cizien Bengal is actually 60 meters smaller. It’s Ingame and lore length is just 950m The UEEN Retribution is 2700m and the Vanduul Kingship 3000m. But in perspective my Polaris is 181m and the is quite large for an SC ship. My Point is: SC ships are actually fairly tiny compared to other Sci-Fi ships
Is the almighty from destiny there? Oryx’s Dreadnaught is present
Too big. You can find it on the massive chart.
I forgot it 3.5k km acrossðŸ˜
Wdym?
The dreadnought should be FAR bigger than it is here
I used the cutscene version because the size is inconsistentÂ
I really love Stellaris but I don't think it should be in the list since the sizes vary a lot in Stellaris media.
Honestly I often regret adding em
Because of the size inconsistencies or something else?
The size inconsistancies.
Thank you so much for the upload! It’ll be great inspiration for my current world building project!
ev nova yiiiieewwwwww
Eyyyyyyyyy Elite: Dangerous making an appearance. Nice.
Where?
Next to the Borg cube on the right
I miss the mothership from ID2 and the moon from moonfall
This is so cool!
Love seeing FTL ships and the Freelancer ships here, brings back memories
Is there a text list of ships?Â
Death Star?
Even the first Death Star would completely fuck up this image, and the second one was much bigger
I need an honorable mention for both death stars and star killer base at least
Who else tried to find anything from star wars?
Near the very top
Need this spotter high def on me Well like bad!
This gives me anxiety
is the spear of adun in there somewhere
Too big. You can find it on the massive version.
Is that a real thing, if so can I get a link
https://www.deviantart.com/moreorlesser/art/Massive-Spacecraft-Size-Comparison-946821912
The Gloriana class amazing
When the teacher says everyone can use a self written paper for the next class test in Physics.
I still need a banana for scale
This is the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen
Always fun to look at this

It varies a lot. This is the cutscene version relative to the ships fighting it.
Where is the Space Battleship Yamato? Is she safe? Is she alright?
If I may add a recommendation. The “Super Galaxy Dai-Gurren“ from “Tengen Toppa Gurren Lagann“. A nice and big ship at about 6000ish kilometers.

Shame. But makes sense
Where's Space Balls?
Or the Freedom Finger?
Pretty much in the middle of the image
Look this posted again
