You don't mean Gom'tu do you?
Both the feds and rommies were interested in this sentient ship.
Circa 5th season TNG.
On the other hands, the Dominion Shapeshifter Laars, (DS9 6-7 season) was capable of shifting into a ftl living organism/ship which was a we bit larger then a runabout.
No actually I was thinking of the first two episodes "Encounter at Farpoint" where the one alien was forced to become the starpart and its mate came in shape of a ship.Quote:

Though the Gom'tu is another example of what I was talking about.
...there's the holoship idea from Red Dwarf.
The cream of Starfleet Command, hologrammized into something that's not much bigger than a photon torpedo, but heavily-shielded (and possibly armed) going around the cosmos looking down their noses at everyone.

You could also make a ship out of nanites/nano-bots (if these things had replication ability, imagine a fight. The enemy: "We've struck their hull, and...WHAT THE...":D)
As for Transformers, I think I already posted that, but oh, well:):

Starfleet know ships with some transforming capabilities!!
As I´m right there was a German Book called "Die Kinder von Hamlin" there were Aliens with ships made of different size globes.
They escaped the Enterprise Tractorbeam by rearranging the globes!!
They were called Choraii!!
My German is a bit rusty - does that translate as "The Children of Hamlin"? If so, is it a Pied Piper reference? Sounds interesting...
Yes. It was released over here under that title, as the second or third TNG novel. It's been so long that I barely remember the plot, but kidnapped children were involved. I don't know whether it appeared here or in Germany first, though.Quote:
