How Big Is the ISS Compared to Science Fiction Spaceships?

We are so used to the International Space Station that we do n’t give its massive scale a 2d thought . I , for one , took it for granted until a newly - released NASA photograph reminded me that this thing is huge . So vast that I fired up Photoshop and did an illustration equate it to aColonial ViperMk1 , a Corellian corvette , theUSS EnterpriseNCC-1701 - A , and thenew Battlestar Galactica . I do n’t live about you , but this one really make me go oh - ah . possibly it ’s all a fake andthat guy is a Lego Minifig .
