- Ghost 1 is a human-constructed spaceship in the Transformers (2007) Movie continuity family.
 Spoiler warning: Plot and/or ending details follow. |
Retroengineered from half-understood (at best) Ice Man-derived technology, the experimental Ghost 1 was created by Sector 7 in the late 1960s. It was theoretically capable of traversing the solar system from Jupiter back to earth in a time frame of about six months (a rate of travel unnimaginable for Earth-based technology).
Ghost 1 was single-stage, sleek and winged, with noticably unaerodynamic bulges and technology protruding in various places. To Transformer eyes it was of very noticable Decepticon design (although simultainiously strangely primitive in construction) and resembled Megatron's space-jet form to some extent.
Ghosts of Yesterday
Ghost 1 was launched using the Apollo 11 moonshot as a cover. Its mission was a test flight beyond Jupiter and back. The six-month tour was thrown for a loop while attempting to recreate an episode of Star Trek and it ended up pulling a Farscape instead. Things went decidedly downhill from there.
