I really don't know how they worked this out, but if true its a pretty interesting look at just how slow some of these sci-fi ships actually are.

1) That's probably new canon for Star Wars, so doesn't matter.
2) Where are the Stargate ships? Tch.

I saw this list before and argued the Tardis is technically the fastest because as a time machine it can literally arrive before it left.

All vessels in sci-fi move at the same speed. They are never late nor or they early; they arrive precisely when the plot says they should.

It's there. Fifth fastest. Though certainly not the fastest in Stargate. Asgard ships seem to be able to travel to other galaxies in hours. Or less.

Yeah. Lists like that are great for a bit of fun but ultimately if a script writer needs a ship to get there, it will.
