Here you will find several space story links. See if you can find the secret link within the story. Keep checking back on other stories we will have. |

| The Space Legion has used the following vehicles or devices for interplanetary missions. Click below for more details: |
| Legion Cruiser (Mark IV): The fastest, most powerful ships in the galaxy, these four cruisers were given to the Legion of Super-Heroes in 2967 as a housewarming gift when they were in the process of constructing their new Headquarters (AD 367). These horizontally landing cruisers are smaller and more compact vessels with three fins and one large cylindrical rear engine. |
 |
| The quality of these new, mostly untried, vessels is questionable. Within a month one was sent to the spaceport for minor repairs (AD 368). |

|
| Legion Cruiser (Mark III): Used by the Legion during their 5th term year (2966-67). Similar to the Mark I, these four vertically landing ships were taller and sleeker, with a ladder leading up the side to a main hatchway located one-third up the length. Propelled by four rocket engines, smaller and sleeker than the Mark I's, at the time, this cruiser was the faster ship in the galaxy (AD 366). Legion spacecraft have A-1 priority in any spaceport in the galaxy (AD 359). The craft has two deck levels (see cross-sectional picture) and has a pilot and co-pilot seating in the cockpit (see picture below). |
|
Legion Cruiser (Mark II): Used briefly in 2966 (AD 343), this horizontally landing ship featured one large, cylindrical stern engine encircled by 18 smaller directional thrusters, and two landing control thrusters under the bow. The ship suffered from two severe design flaws - the cockpit radio controls were located directly behind the emergency dive lever and the hull was dangerously susceptible to strain and cracking. Both ships were destroyed due to these flaws while on missions. |
|
Legion Cruiser (Mark I): Used from 2962 to 2965, this vertically landing ship was similar to the later Mark III, but stockier. The four engines were two-thirds the length of the vessel and the main hatchway was located at the base of the main hull, which was diagonally striped. They were used to enter the Starburst Eye. |

Like the Mark III, the cockpit featured pilot and co-pilot seating and controls. The Legion owned two of these cruisers. Click on this link to enter the secret game zone. |

Space-Flier: The Legion of Super-Heroes has used a number of smaller horizontally landing spacecraft - called space-fliers, space-mobiles, or space-speedsters - for one- or two-man missions (AD 305, AD 318, etc).

Space-Bike: In 2963, Brainiac 5 devised these one-man rockets, improving upon the ones used by Roxxas and his space-pirates. Spacesuits must be worn while riding these small craft, which are faster than the Legion Cruiser Mark I, though of significantly less range (AD 307).

Ultra-Flight Pack: A spacesuit must be worn in conjunction with this personal harness device, which is capable of providing warp-speed travel for the wearer. This rectangular device is used for interstellar travel (AD 372).

Anti-Gravity Space Suit: In order to solo-travel through interplanetary space within a solar system, the Legion employ spacesuits with built-in anti-gravity power-units. It should be noted that the green-colored suits had stronger power-units than the orange suits (AD 304).

Warp Ship: A small, one-man, experimental star-ship that can cross the galaxy faster than any space-vessel known to man. Ferro Lad was the first person to test this prototype craft in 2966 (AD 352). |
