Earthship Ark - Huge spacecraft featured on the Canadian produced science fiction series STARLOST/SYN/1973. The "Earthship Ark" was designed to carry clusters of domed-biospheres which enclosed some 3 million survivors of the planet earth. Built to save mankind when earth faced extinction, the spacecraft was sent into space on a course for a new planet. Unfortunately, an accident 100 years into the flight killed its crew and caused the ship to malfunction. Now 800 years into its voyage, the Ark is on a collision course with a star. Descendents of the Biospheres (who believed they were actually living on the surface of a real planet) penetrated the master computer room by accident and thus activated the voice controlled computer.
