It had to feel alien but not oppressive, and kind of a bit holy, which is why the cockpit is also a dome. The ship is meant to show off the Xi'an advanced gravitational technology. During development, lead vehicle designer Mark came to Alberto Petronio and said "we always do spaceships like they're planes, why don't we have one that looks like a rocket." The ship texture was supposed to be damascus but ended up being something between coral and rock.^[3]
