Battlestar Galactica

Silver, the mechanical horse from the legendary "Battlestar Galactica" television series, is one of the most well-known of these. Silver was a popular favorite, admired for his strong and determined character, as well as his devotion to Commander Adama, his rider.

The Never-Ending Story

Artax, the heroic stallion from the classic fantasy film "The NeverEnding Story," is another horse that has grabbed the hearts of science fiction aficionados.

Artax's voyage through the Swamp of Sadness is one of the film's most memorable moments, and his bravery and determination in the face of adversity have won him a place among science fiction's finest horses.

Horses as Sidekicks in Science Fiction

Horses are also a popular choice for science fiction writers wishing to inject some levity into their stories. 

Mr.Ed

Mr. Ed, the talking horse from the famous television series of the same name, is one of the best examples of this. Mr. Ed was a delight to audiences, who appreciated his quick wit and mischievous streak, and he remains one of science fiction's most popular horses.

Horses as Villains in Science Fiction

Horses have frequently been portrayed as heroes in science fiction, but they have also been featured as villains on occasion. 

Blade Runner

Night Runner, the ominous horse from the classic film "Blade Runner," is one of the most renowned examples of this. Night Runner was a scary and unsettling presence in the picture, and his malevolent disposition has made him one of science fiction's most famous horses.

Game of Thrones

The Night King's horse from "Game of Thrones" is another horse that has been depicted as a villain in science fiction. 

This horse represented the Night King's power and malevolence, and its entrance on the battlefield was a clear omen that the armies of good were doomed.

Horses that Deliver a Message in Science Fiction

War Horse

"War Horse" (2011) is a film about a young man's close attachment to his horse, Joey. Set during World War I, the film follows Joey as he travels through Europe's battlefields and meets many personalities along the way.
