Sacred Cow Shipyards
@sacredcowshipyardsSacred Cow Shipyards (SCS) is a Patreon community dedicated to the serious, quasi-historical study of science fiction ships, installations, and vessels. Launched in May 2021, SCS has cultivated a dedicated following of 84 members, with 55 actively supporting the project financially. The community operates primarily through a Discord server, accessible only to Patreon subscribers. Unlike casual fan discussions, SCS takes a meticulously researched and often sober approach to dissecting the design choices and implications of iconic sci-fi vehicles. This focus on critical analysis, rather than mere appreciation, distinguishes SCS within the broader sci-fi fandom. With an estimated monthly revenue ranging from $60 to $300, SCS demonstrates a growing impact in fostering a community that values insightful commentary and rigorous exploration of science fiction's visual and technological landscape. The community's engagement indicates a hunger for deeper analysis within the genre, beyond simple appreciation and into the realm of genuine critical study.
