So when we heard about this truly epic sci-fi spaceship size comparison chart, we just had to share it Put together by German artist Dirk Lchel, the huge 4268 x 5690 pixel graphic features ships from popular science fiction movies, TV shows and video games from the past 40+ years, including: Star Trek, Star Wars, Battlestar Galactica.

Snub ships are dedicated support ships made for scouting, planetary exploration/travel and disembark from larger ships.
