Designer Thamer Hannona has put together a [futuristic concept vessel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/beyond-horizons) designed exclusively for [Disney's](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/avatar-the-way-of-water) Tomorrowland that takes its design inspiration from sea life. The spacecraft is engineered to look like a stingray with a pronged body. The ship was created as a proposal to potentially be used in the film.

The ship's body creatively blends both [animal and machine](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/star-walkers) in a design that replicates the shape of a stingray. The front portion is large and diamond while the back end of the ship splits into two different prongs. As the ship moves through the sky, it is recognizable as a stingray.

While the concept wasn't selected to be used in the Disney movie, it does offer a viable aesthetic that could potentially be used in future vessel designs.
