- Calabi-Yau is an Autobot starship from the IDW portion of the Generation 1 continuity family.
The Calabi-Yau is an Autobot science/survey space vessel, crewed by Jetfire and his crew of Technobots.
Fiction
2005 IDW continuity
The Calabi-Yau was orbiting Cybertron when its sensors picked up an energy trace from the dead planet. Nosecone reported the reading to Jetfire, who gathered the Technobots in the ship's diagnostic auditorium, where the energy trace was identified as an unusual variant of Energon. Against command directives, Jetfire ordered the Calabi-Yau land on Cybertron, where he and three of the Technobots disembarked to conduct a detailed survey. Technobots Nosecone and Afterburner took the Calabi-Yau back into orbit; shortly thereafter, she was targeted and attacked by a missile volley launched from Cybertron. Afterburner launched a distress buoy and the two Technobots made it to an emergency escape pod moments before the missiles destroyed the Calabi-Yau. Stormbringer #1
The message buoy was detected by the Autobot Orbital Command Hub, who tried hailing her to no avail. The memories of Thunderwing's rampage across Cybertron, coupled with hostile activity in Thunderhead Pass prompted Optimus Prime to recall the Wreckers. Stormbringer #2
Notes
- The name is likely a reference to Calabi-Yau manifolds.
- A ship of the same class and type, the Mirror-Manifold, was later seen in Spotlight: Doubledealer and Spotlight: Sideswipe.
