Organic Alien Spaceships, 1/3

  • Always looking for new shapes, I explored the concept of organic alien spaceships by making some sketches. It’s a fascinating concept that blurs the line between technology and biology.
    Organic spaceships, or bioships, are a cool sci-fi concept where ships are grown from living tissues instead of being built from traditional materials. They can heal themselves, adapt to different environments, and often have a symbiotic relationship with their pilots, allowing for direct neural connections. These ships might get energy from organic sources, like consuming biological matter or photosynthesis. While they’re fictional, bioships spark interesting ideas about the future of biotechnology and space exploration! Bioships are grown rather than built. They are often depicted as being created from living tissues, cells, and other organic materials. This can include anything from plant-like structures to animal-like tissues.
    In some cases, the cockpit windows function much like the eyelids of an eye that open and close. In other cases, the cockpit itself is filled with a gelatinous substance that acts as a life support.
    Some theories suggest that bioships could generate electric fields to accelerate ions, creating thrust. This could be combined with bioluminescence to excite plasma and produce a high-energy beam for propulsion.
    A bioship could also use internal chemical reactions to produce gases or other substances that can be expelled to generate thrust. This would be similar to how some biological organisms produce and expel gases.
    In some fictional universes, bioships use psionic powers or other forms of mental energy to move. While this is purely speculative and not based on current science, it adds an interesting dimension to the concept.

    I had this wacky idea once, it's actually from a game I don't even remember the name anymore. You are given an infant ship in your childhood, and as you grow older so does it. While it's the size of a meager fighter when you are a kid, it's the size of a capital ship once you are middle-aged.
    And there was something about the ships having literal blood and dying on a glory fest of crimson once destroyed.

    While incredibly cool, if you were aiming at the more "organic" look as in combining technology and biology, personally I think they still look too mechanical. Pretty much just a regular spaceship in a animal form. Don't get me wrong, they are still awesome. But perhaps, you intended to create something more in the line of Alien franchise, or Undine species from Star Trek, where ships don't "look" like animals, but still feel like a living organism. Anyways, I'll stop babbling, great job, keep it up :D

    The thing about space travel is that there is no need for aerodynamic in spaceship design because you flying literally in place of nothing and no where, no air mean no wind resistance, and no gravity except if you fly near one, which mean as long as it meant for space travel only, you could literally designed it as wacky and cool as you wanted it to be.

    • @KarlDupereRicher
      @KarlDupereRicher  Месяц назад

      The concept would still apply on a planet like Mars or Mercury, which has a much thinner atmosphere than Earth. The aerodynamic forces are much less significant on those planets due to the lower atmospheric pressure. Atmospheric pressure is an element often neglected in science fiction, humans who land on any planet and take off their helmet because the air is breathable without taking into account the factor of atmospheric pressure.

    • @monsterfiz
      @monsterfiz Месяц назад +2

      That a good question, welp, lets nerd out a little bit. I think the answer is depend of which type of civilization and what technological path every sentient species take, including human. The reason why we still don't have space travel yet is because we are still type zero civilization in kardeshev scale or type 0.16 to be exact which mean we aren't fully control the energy from our planet yet and still dependent on fuel that easily run out. There is no oil and coal in space because that resources can only be found on planet that once have ancient life, which mean if you want to do a space travel, you need a ship that able to generate its own power which is something we human races didn't figured out yet. The thing is, there is many possibilities of what mankind future technology could be, just look at our long ancestors from the stone age, they wouldn't know if their descendant, "us", to use oil made of ancient animal as water and food containers so what the possibilities that our long future descendant would made organic spaceship out of synthetic flesh. And since human is not the only sentience life in the universe, the chance are there is sentience and intelligence alien life out there who might ended up in that path is not entirely impossible, at least in fiction.
