For almost 10 years, the Star Citizen community has had access to StarShip42 — a ship fan database organized by one enthusiast.
He recently addressed the fans and announced the upcoming closure of the project:
«I created StarShip42.com in 2016 as a small hobby project — a way to explore, compare, and dream about the incredible ships for Star Citizen. What started as a small nightly experiment has grown far beyond my expectations thanks to the amazing passion and creativity of this community.
After many years, updates, and friendships, I believe it's time to close this chapter. Life has led me in several wonderful directions, and I no longer have the time and energy to maintain the site at the proper level. StarShip42 will remain online until October 22, 2025, after which it will be permanently closed.»
The site developer is not saying goodbye — he intends to continue «flying among the stars,» and also noted that «one day StarShip42 may return in another form.»
Some active members of the Star Citizen community are trying to contact the creator of StarShip42 to take over the support of the resource.
