That said, it pissed me off because they blew up the second ship. How rad would it be if for the rest of voyager, they had 2 spaceships? It would have been really interesting and I would have loved it. Yes I know the equinox was slow but sprinkle a bit of engineering and technobabble and it would have been awesome.
Stargate Atlantis screwed this one up too. On multiple occasions they found an awesome ancient battleship, flew it around, and then the writers blew it up in order to reset the status quo.
The Expanse does it right. And Hitchhiker’s Guide. Hmm I can’t think of any others, anyone else know any stories with a “finds and keeps awesome ship” plot point?
Equinox was a great set of episodes.

DS9
Enterprise keeps one of the Suliban cell ships, and uses it a couple times
I just finished The Dark Forest and I now know why saving the ship wouldn’t have worked under any circumstance
