L.C. Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 Read this first:http://science.slashdot.org/science/07/03/28/1722205.shtml Then see this link that is in that article:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SpaceShipTwohttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:Vss.JPG See the VIE logo? Ok, Virgin Interactive. See the "award" or "plate" the guy on the right side of the photo is holding with his hands? Doesn't that white figure suspiciously look like a Spider (3) to you? It appears they pulled the plane out from that casing and it was fitted into that Spider-shaped part of the case. Heh. Virgin must really like the space-theme. Too bad they gave Subspace up.
tcsoccerman Posted March 28, 2007 Report Posted March 28, 2007 I felt like a detective zooming in on a picture and "discovering" something unusual. lol. i guess it kinda does...i dunno. a little blocky i guess you could say.
rootbear75 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 Doesn't that white figure suspiciously look like a Spider (3) to you?No
Samapico Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 yeah, I did That's the spid from the 3d animation, top view... and the shape of that thing in the pic up there... Wasted 30 seconds of my life on that
MikeTheNose Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 This is one of those times when you need to stop playing subspace and look at the bigger picture. Or perhaps ponder the existance of 42.
Smong Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 It's upside down and I doubt it has cloaking technology.
candygirl Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 Doesn't that white figure suspiciously look like a Spider (3) to you?No I think it does.
rootbear75 Posted March 29, 2007 Report Posted March 29, 2007 thats a thin line to go on... similar shape, but it doesnt have any curves.. if subspace were back in the 8/16 bit era, then maybe
L.C. Posted March 29, 2007 Author Report Posted March 29, 2007 Well its obviously a crude, linear shape of the Spider. I just still wonder if that was just coincidence or they got the idea from the modern Spider. Oh well, just something I was curious about.

Oh well, just something I was curious about. or maybe it is just the fact subspace ships are based on age old space ship designs. That might be the answer... nah...
Smong Posted March 31, 2007 Report Posted March 31, 2007 Look what I found: http://secretssship.ytmnd.com/
AceSpades Posted March 31, 2007 Report Posted March 31, 2007 I laughed at that ytmnd. If you're noticing things like this you need to leave subspace Oh, and "that guy on the left" is Richard Branson. He owns all things Virgin and it stupidly rich.
Shlazzer Posted March 31, 2007 Report Posted March 31, 2007 Doesn't that white figure suspiciously look like a Spider (3) to you? Kinda does, except it's backwards. Like a Spider turned around... maybe...?
Ophie Posted March 31, 2007 Report Posted March 31, 2007 it must be a conspiracyplease get NASA on the line. We cannot have professionals basing their spaceship design on a 2d game. Everybody knows that real life spaceships should be 4D!
MikeTheNose Posted March 31, 2007 Report Posted March 31, 2007 So while you people have been decussing this did none of you realize that it's the 2d model of the ship in the guy's hand?
Samapico Posted March 31, 2007 Report Posted March 31, 2007 So while you people have been decussing this did none of you realize that it's the 2d model of the ship in the guy's hand?of course we did... hence the 'but upside-down' comments... the part that looks like the spider's wings are actually the thrusters (or wings, but rear of the ship, w/e) of the one he holds
