The Taelon Mothership was a type of starship used by the Taelon's from Earth: Final Conflict.
History
When Joyce Belman was transformed into a near god-like being with great psychic power, she decided to purge the Earth of both Taelon and Human life. To do this, she used her mental abilities alone to send the mothership into a crash course to the planets surface. The rupture of the ships interdimensional drives would have scattered the planet into several different dimensions thus devastating its surface as well as bringing about the extinction of the two races. The ships conventional drives were insufficient for the task but Lili Marquette was able to activate the vessels interdimensional drives allowing it to enter FTL before it crashed. This allowed them to escape destruction and return back in orbit around the Earth. (Episode: Between Heaven and Hell)
It's eventually revealed that the Mothership was infact shrinking in it's form as the Taelon's have begun to shut off section's of the vessel in order to reclaim their energy for their conservation efforts.
Background
The Taelon Mothership is a living vessel made of the same bioslurry that decorates their embassies. This make's it capabale of repairing itself from a number of wounds. The exterior appear's almost translucent in a similar manner as the Taelon's themselves which is achieved through the use of Virtual Glass. They are massie vessels that can be seen from orbit and maintained at least 153 deck's.
The armaments of the vessel are unknown but what is known is that they are capable of fighting against Jaridian warships as well as deal a great deal of damage to Earth from orbit. In addition, they are equipped with an unknown number of shuttles which are stored within the vast landing bay.
Deep inside the Mothership resides a number of chambers which are forbidden to outsiders. Here lis the developing Taelon embryo's which grow and develop. In addition, there lies the stasis deck where the Taelon's can enter into a hibernative state in which they are preserved while awaiting a renewed supply of core energy.
The ships possessed a number of cryogenics laboratories that were tied to a separate power grid on the ship allowing them to function even if their was a power loss. (Episode: Gauntlet)
