A comparison of the sizes of fictional starships
Some of the ships shown are absolutely ridiculous in size. If the E-D needs a thousand people on it, how could you have some of these ships without millions of people on board? How could you possibly coordinate all of the tasks that would have to be done? Furthermore, some of these ships are large enough to have their own ecosystems that you'd have to tie into the ship's functions. EDIT: In the comments the question arose whether a Star Destroyer could destroy a Dyson Sphere. I think no, it would just punch a hole in the Sphere. You'd have to build the Sphere to be able to handle anything inside AND outside it, including comet impacts. The thing generates its own gravitational pull, after all. You'd have to have a million Star Destroyers firing inward from all directions to destroy a Dyson Sphere.
