Science Fiction
Science fiction gives us a myriad of universes to explore, and a myriad of beautiful wallpapers to choose from! Here you’ll find the biggest and best, hand-picked by us.
Concentrating your Fire
The Clone WArs have began on Geonosis and the Republic forces are advancing. The Trade Federation starships are attempting to withdraw, so Master Yoda orders the massive artillery to focus their fire. The powerful beams from the ground-based turbolasers literally carve up the starship like a Christmas turkey, sending it crashing back to the ground […]
Duel on Naboo
We’re back in the galaxy far far away with today’s wallpaper, showing us an early moment in the duel on Naboo. Jedi Master Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson) and his Apprentice Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan Macgregor) are assaulted by the formidable Dark Side warrior, Darth Maul (Ray Park). It’s two on one but Darth Maul is skilled […]
Emperor of the Daleks
Behold, the sight that very few survive to see…the Emperor of the Daleks. It commanded the final assault on Gallifrey and the Fall of Arcadia, and miraculously (for the Daleks anyway) survived the apocalypse caused by the Doctor. It’s ship fell through time, crippled and broken, yet still alive. It hid in the darkness at […]
The Doctors United
To offset the doom and gloom of all the monsters, today we have a real treat: this cracking wallpaper shows us three of the Doctor’s incarnations united to the stop the bad guys. The Eleventh and Tenth Doctors look with dread at the War Doctor (brilliantly played by John Hurt), a terrible reminder of what […]
Gallifrey Falls
We arrive at the darkest time in the Doctor’s long life. The Fall of Arcadia on Gallifrey during the Last Great Time War. It was here that the War Doctor realized he had no other option but to end it all, destroy Daleks and Time Lords alike. In this stunning wallpaper we can see the […]
The TARDIS
We’ve had enough of monsters, time for some heroes. What better than the TARDIS, the improbably-sized timeship of the Doctor. It’s taken him throughout all of time and space, from the very birth of the Universe to the last days, when the cosmos is winding down to die, 100 trillion years in the future. She […]
The Cybermen
We jump across time and entire universes to arrive at our next wallpaper. Here, the Cybermen advance, slowly but inexorably, nigh-unstoppable in their intentions. They are the future of mankind; the brains implanted in a cybernetic body, and they seek to “upgrade” all others to be like them, because extinction is not an option. They […]
Pegasus’ Last Stand
We jump across to Battlestar Galactica for today’s wallpaper, to the Battle of New Caprica. The Galactica fought bravely against four-to-one odds but was being blasted to pieces. Just when it seemed she was doomed, one of the Cylon Basestars exploded, heralding the thunderous arrival of Pegasus. Commanded by Lee Adama, the mighty ship was […]
Fighting the Borg
War has come to the skies of Earth, as a single massive Borg cube has penetrated deep into the Federation’s defences. Starfleet valiantly tries to hold the line but is forced back again and again. The USS Defiant proves her worth, surviving the entire battle and inflicting considerable damage on the Borg vessel. Here we […]
Ambushed
WE’re sticking with Star Trek but we’ve gone back in time a few decades, to this (imaginary) battle in 2285. The USS Enterprise, under Admiral James T Kirk, is ambushed at close range by the renegade USS Reliant, which has been seized by Khan Noonien Singh, a genetically-engineered superman from Earth’s darkest period. Khan has […]
Open Fire!
We travel across a few million light-years for today’s sci-fi wallpaper. It’s the USS Defiant, designed and built by Benjamin Sisko to fight the Borg. It only met the Borg once but she did much better than most of the other starships present. She had much better luck against the Dominion, where she proved to […]
Ready to Strike
We’re back in the galaxy far, far away for today’s wallpaper. We see the massed squadrons of the Rebel Alliance launching from their base on Yavin IV for a desperate strike against the nigh-invincible Death Star. It really is a do-or-die mission for these pilots: if the base is destroyed the Rebellion is finished. For […]
Imperial Assault
Our time in the Galaxy far, far away isn’t over yet. This great scene from the Battle of Hoth shows us a devastating Imperial victory. The Imperial forces, led by Darth Vader have been searching for the Rebel’s secret base for months, and finally they have found it. The Rebel shield prevents a direct assault […]
Battle over Coruscant
Disaster! The Separatists have assembled a huge fleet and used secret hyperlanes to attack Coruscant, the capital of the Republic. The fleet battle overhead is cover for the kidnapping of the Chancellor, but the Home Fleet, supported by the Open Circle Fleet commanded by Obi-Wan Kenobi have rushed to engage the enemy before they can […]
Battle of Endor
Our sci-fi ships theme flies off to a galaxy far, far away for today’s wallpaper, featuring an early moment from the climactic Battle of Endor. The Rebel Fleet, realising the unfinished Death Star II is nonetheless fully operational, hastily disengages and turns away, only to find the massed Star Destroyers of the Imperial Starfleet waiting […]
