i don't really get all the sci-fi spaceship design, clearly the best shape would be a sphere since enemies can come from all directions. You can shoot in every direction that way and with some good system fly in every way.

No a sphere is very poor because you have to cover all points.sigpic
You are the fifth race, your role is clear, if there is any hope in preserving the future it lies with you and your people ~ 8years for those words

Now looking at this from a TV Sci-fi perspective a more interesting designed ship would be more appealing. TV being a visual media requires things to capture an audience’s attention while also giving them something they can relate to and a sphere as a future spaceship really does not do this.
