If I had three wishes, one would be for a billion dollars. The second would be for my wife to have her books published and in bookstores. The third would be for a starship. You can see that the first is for my entire family, the second for my wife, and the third for me.
The starship would be a combination of the Andromeda Ascendant from the 2000 TV series Andromeda and the Teacher from the Alan Dean Foster book series called the Pip And Flinx series. Picture the AIs from the two ships merged, and then take all the features of the Teacher and fit them into both the shape and size of the Andromeda Ascendant. Also add in any features of the Andromeda Ascendant which do not contradict the Teacher's features. And finally, add in the ability to "beam" people from one place to another so that I can get in and out of the ship from Earth undetected. The ship can park on the opposite side of the sun from the Earth and keep itself there so that it avoids detection.
Okay, I have too much free time on my hands! If anyone wants a space ship designer on their staff, let me know!
