Description
Here's the prompt for the design of this ship: The owner of this ship is part of an alien species that shares many characteristics with grasshoppers. So the ship design has a sort of organic feel to it. Another thing about his race is they have been receiving signals from Earth for many years. This has influenced the designs of their ships(kinda like the aliens from Galaxy Quest). So design elements from many famous ships in fiction would be present.

From that prompt I bring you this ship.

The main structure is very Star Trek inspired, LanternBat brought up Galaxy Quest and if the aliens were to be inspired by Human spaceship design, Star Trek is by far our most iconic in that arena. The nose and struts connecting to the nacelles are where most of the organic grasshopper idea was put into. Other iconic Human spaceship elements are seen in the wings and engine area, inspired by the non-fictional Space Shuttle Orbiters. The engines are more similar to those found on a SpaceX Starship, rather than the Space Shuttles, as the Orbital Maneuvering Thrusters aren't present. The SpaceX Starship is already one of Humanity's most ubiquitous space vehicles, and it's flights have so far been limited to suborbital test flights, so I can only imagine that it'll be more recognisable in the future.
