"This landing could get pretty interesting." "Define 'interesting'. " "Oh go oh god, we're all gonna die?"
One of the best spacecraft in fiction, from the simple fact that it was so capable despite being so unassuming. The design was an excellent blend of the sensible in function with a hint of fantastical in its aesthetics. So good.

Really needs to be a spiritual successor to Firefly. The universe is pretty much dead at this point but any show that can catch the same spirit as the original is good in my book.

Blake's Seven was the original Firefly and I think there should be not a reboot, but a continuation of Series 5, with Avon, Vila and Dayna surviving, meeting up with Jenna and Orac, who've been rebuilding a DSV class vessel, of course named the Liberator II

The original cast are in their 70's now! TOO old to be fighting the oppressive Terran Federation!
I did the math and the Serenity can go approximately 360,000,000 kilometres per hour, or 223,693,629 miles per hour for any Americans. This makes the speed a clean 100,000,000 meters per second, just above 33% the speed of light, that being 299,792,458 meters per second. Edit: As a bonus, I also done up how long it would take to get to the nearest star, Alpha Centauri. Going at top speed, it would take approximately 12 years, or a few months under 13 years as viewed from earth due to time dilation. This means that, due to the ships capacity for supplies, it would likely run out of either water, power and air before it ever reached its destination. It would, however, likely have enough storage space for sufficient foodstuff for at least 1-2 people, that being a rough estimate based solely on the cargo bay. Likely a third or even forth person could come if the excess empty space were used as storage.
If I ever won the lottery.. I would build a life size replica of this beautiful ship, and call it home!
I did/still do really enjoy the Firefly series. I must confess that the Serenity was the first sci fi ship that I just had to know what the interior blue prints and layout looked like. It started me down the road to finding online series such as yours to learn of interior designs of numerous ship variations on the TV and movie ships of the genre to this day. Thanks for this episode.
Great video thank you. Best scene for me is when Mal finds, buys off the lot Serenity. First time.

Here's a little more from me: (River looks around Zoe): "Not sure how much the script-writers could help, Capn. They told me that we're getting cancelled before the end of the season. But don't worry -- we'll be guesting on panels at conventions in North America, Europe, and Australia for at least the next twenty years."

thank you! very well done
i do miss that ship and that show great vid
A tidbit I caught here that I didn't previously know was the scale of the Firefly universe. The unusual 5 star solar system is 55 light hours across, or between 5 and 6 times the size of Earth's solar system (if Pluto's orbit is the boundary). To be able to cross it in a week requires Serenity to have an average speed during the trip of almost 1/3 the speed of light, with actual peak speed being far more than that if you incorporate acceleration into the calculation. Another thought I had was that obviously artificial gravity is a thing (down isn't based on the direction of travel in space), doesn't require power (in "Out of Gas" life support fails long before gravity does), and cancels out most external acceleration but not all. Since most inconsistencies happen near a planet perhaps the system has trouble in significant gravity wells.
I've always thought that Serenity set being real, like being able to walk around and see the ship made the series that much better.
simply awesome !!
Heart of Gold!!!!
Keep flying.
That’s one capable boat!

Yup! LUCKY to survive 2 seasons sadly! Deserved FAR better!
I would love to see something about any of the various star-ships, or personel carriers, used by the UNSC in Halo! (Pillar of Autumn, Pelican, Long Sword etc. ) Mostly because the star-ships, according to what I've read in the cannon books, are built around an impressive weapons system! I know there's plenty of lore around Halo, and also plenty of material on the ships themselves. I just think you do a great job covering the ships themselves, its like reading those Eye Witness exploded-diagram books as a child! Keep up the good work!

This would be showing my age, but as a youngster I would run home after school to watch Fireball XL5. That was a ship I would dream about, that is until Lost In Space (1967 version ). XL5 though, design and interior wise is pretty much a mystery. Could you shed some light on the lay-out?

And seeing that Farscape is on there, I am hoping to see the often unacknowledged Peacekeeper Command Carrier someday. (Although I can appreciate that being further away). But the reason I asked is that I also wanted to suggest either Halo's UNSC Halcyon Class Cruiser, the Pillar of Autumn or their Flagship, the UNSC Infinity (as far as Halo ships go, these two are by far the most interesting in terms of their design and history) Of course don't let me pressure or rush you into it :)
