    So rad! I love how organic it looks. You know if sci-fi movies they sometimes make the alien spaceship look very organic? (battlestar galacitca, arrival, alien…) Like it grew that way instead of being built? That blob shape reminds me of this. Maybe in the future we will have spaceships designed by AI that looks like this blob.

      You know the movies and shows you mention are all ones where humans are killed in large numbers, right? I’m just saying…

        Only 2 people were killed in Arrival, I don’t want to get all Stalin but is that a huge number?

      If you like this you should check out xenobots. They’re this but actually real. They’re made of muscle cells and can move on their own and apparently reproduce.

        That sounds really interesting. The ship can grow and change to accommodate the crew? I’ve never seen Farscape. Sell me on it!

          Even better: It has a baby in the first season!

          It’s about an astronaut gets pulled through a wormhole and deposited with a bunch of escaped criminals on the run from an evil general. The effects are a little dated and campy, but the characters and plot is pretty compelling. It had like six seasons and a couple movies. Jim Henson’s Creature Shop did the aliens, which is also pretty neat.
