When asked to design a robot that can walk, an AI told researchers to check out this blob thing.

    One of my favorite biological spaceships is the Leviathans from Farscape

      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.
