Dreadnaught: Difference between revisions

*Fan theories abound as to the actual size of the Dreadnaught. Fans used known data about Saturn's rings and the size of recently investigated comet {{Plain|[https://www.wikiwand.com/en/67P/Churyumov%E2%80%93Gerasimenko 67P/Churyumov–Gerasimenko]}} (based on the comet from the initial trailer cinematic<ref name="Prologue"/>) to estimate that the Dreadnaught is approximately between 3444 to 3500 kilometers (2140.002 to 2174.799 miles) long.<ref name="math">'''reddit''': ''[https://www.reddit.com/r/DestinyTheGame/comments/3o43ky/a_mathematical_analysis_of_the_dreadnaughts_size/ A mathematical analysis of the Dreadnaught's size.]''</ref> To put that in perspective, that is equivalent to the width of the continental United States, or the size of Earth's {{Plain|[http://www.space.com/18135-how-big-is-the-moon.html Moon]}},<ref name="BigDread">'''YouTube''': ''[https://youtu.be/DAbFWg9uVfc How Big is The Dreadnaught? (Thats No Moon!)]''</ref> making it one of the largest ships to appear in science fiction, surpassing even the 160 kilometer {{Plain|[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Death_Star_II Death Star II]}} of ''{{Plain|[http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page Star Wars]}}'' or the 385 kilometer [[halopedia:High Charity|High Charity]] of ''[[halopedia:Halo universe|Halo]]''. This might not be the intended size of the Dreadnaught however, as the ship appears much smaller in relation to Saturn's rings when seen from [[Titan (moon)|Titan]] in Destiny 2; and from later in The Coming War cinematic, where the Dreadnaught is shown in profile alongside the much smaller Ketches.

*The massive hole created in the rings of [[Saturn]] is visible from the surface of [[Titan (moon)|Titan]].
