The 'Ark' is the name given to the Autobot spaceship that, in many universes, originally carried the Autobot and Decepticon armies to Earth.
The Ark is a Vanguard-class Deep Space Interceptor. It has five decks and houses a full crew complement of 300 Transformers (although it can be flown by only a handful if necessary). Its environment is fully automated and self-sufficient. For engines, it features 4 Hyperfuel Intake Accelerators.
It is armed with 16 particle-combustion cannons (port), 16 laser emitters (starboard), a primary starfield missile launcher, and an Overshock sonic battery.
Fiction
Marvel Comics continuity
Marvel The Transformers comics
The Ark was "the last of the great arks." Raiders of the Last Ark It is also referred to as the most powerful starship in Cybertron's history, and control of it was considered a huge tactical advantage.
It was launched to clear a path for the wandering planet Cybertron through an asteroid field. When this was done and her reserves depleted, the Decepticons attacked and boarded her. Hoping to end the threat of Megatron forever, Optimus Prime purposely crashed the ship into the passing planet Earth. The Ark crashed into Mount St. Hilary, a volcano located a small distance outside of what would one day become Portland, Oregon. The Transformers
After the crash, some of the Ark's systems still functioned, and when they detected the Decepticon Shockwave making planetfall, the ship revived five of her Autobot crew and rebuilt them into the Dinobots. Upon the disappearance of these warriors in their attempt to destroy Shockwave, the Ark shut itself down. Repeat Performance!
Four million years later, Mount St. Hilary erupted, jarring the ship back to life. It revived and, unable to distinguish Autobot from Decepticon or to detect organic life (clearly it had suffered additional malfunctions since creating the Dinobots), it revived both sides to transform into the machines it perceived as the planet's dominant lifeforms.
The Ark became the Autobots' main base of operations on Earth. The Transformers
The Ark constructed five new Transformer bodies. Wheeljack installed within them the minds of five Autobot warriors, which were encoded in crystals before the Autobots left Cybertron. Rock and Roll-Out!
During Grimlock's first term as Autobot leader, he had the ship repaired Used Autobots and returned to space. Child's Play The Ark served as a base of operations of sorts for the various search parties during the Matrix quest. Matrix Quest The Creation Matrix was eventually found by Thunderwing, but it had been corrupted by evil and began controlling Thunderwing's actions. Thunderwing was granted access to the Ark while aboard a shuttle stolen from Grimlock's search party. Once aboard, the corrupted Creation Matrix fought the Autobots through his vessel, Thunderwing, who was beating everyone up until Nightbeat harpooned him with the shuttle and opened the cargo bay doors. The shuttle, Thunderwing, and the Creation Matrix were ejected into space. All Fall Down
The Ark hung around near Earth for a time, until it was abandoned in orbit when Primus teleported all nearby Transformers back to Cybertron to face Unicron. Out of Time! It was recovered by the Dinobots and flown to Cybertron to engage Unicron. The Void! Grimlock, being the master of tactics that he is, physically rammed Unicron with the powerfully armed starship, which was then abandoned and crashed on Cybertron. On the Edge of Extinction! It was recovered this time by Shockwave and Starscream, who repaired it and took it to Earth to conquer that planet with it. Still Life! This plan was foiled by Galvatron, Megatron and Ratchet crashing the party. Their battle caused the ship to crash to Earth again, this time into the Canadian wilderness. A Savage Circle
- Crew of the Ark
The Ark's original crew in the comics included all of the 1984 Autobots, the Dinobots, Red Alert (in the UK), the recorded mental engrams of most of the other 1985 Autobot cars, and Toaster.
The crew of the Ark consisted of:
Ask Vector Prime
The Steelhaven was disassembled so its parts could be used to repair the Ark. Whatever remained was destroyed to keep it out of human hands. Ask Vector Prime
Generation 2
The Ark was recovered and repaired by Megatron, Realignments who attempted to take it back to Cybertron and conquer that planet with it. This was foiled by Fortress Maximus and Spike Witwicky, who sacrificed their lives to cause an anti-matter explosion that finally destroyed the great ship. All or Nothing!
Classics
Megatron took command of the Ark, but apparently kept it (with Ratchet on ice, and Shockwave's head in a jar) as his new headquarters on Earth. The ship played host to the visiting Decepticons led by Bug Bite, and a subsequent battle between the Decepticons as well as a party of invading Autobots, who destroyed its computers. Games of Deception
Regeneration One
In the realm of Zero Space, someone witnessed the Ark crashing on Earth in the planet's prehistoric era and its second crash in the planet's twentieth century. Counterpoint During the second crash, Galvatron was thrown from the ship and wound up buried in the ice of Yukon in stasis lock after a battle with Fortress Maximus. Loose Ends, Part 5 To save his spark following the crash, Shockwave willingly wired himself into the Ark. Natural Selection, Part Two
For two years after the crash, Spike and Fortress Maximus kept the Ark isolated until Spike called it quits in 1994 so as to live a normal life. Soon after, someone either very greedy or very bored or both managed to enter the Ark. Subsequent events are unclear but they managed to reactivate Megatron. Loose Ends, Part 3 Using the Ark as his main base in an attempt to get Optimus Prime's attention, Loose Ends, Part 2 Megatron exploited his mental connection with Ratchet to reactivate the Ark, reprogramming Aunty and reviving the Underbase casualties as lobotomized zombies to serve him. Using the Ark, Megatron devastated Earth turning the planet into a wasteland. Loose Ends, Part 3
Kup considered the Ark being left on Earth one of the many loose ends leftover from the Great War and took a squad of Wreckers to Earth to tie it up. Sadly they arrived to a devastated Earth and Megatron took advantage of their shock to shoot them down. Loose Ends, Part 1
When the Wreckers met up with Spike, now Circuit Smasher, the human informed them of how the Autobots abandoning the Ark had allowed Megatron to unleash hell on Earth. Leadfoot called foul on the story as despite Megatron's tactical skills, the Decepticon leader lacked the engineering and medical knowledge necessary to reboot and reprogram the Ark and reanimate the corpses. Blackrock pegged the Ark as the reason Megatron kept his hold on Earth with its onboard systems being able to resist any human incursion. When Megatron baited the Wreckers to Washington, D.C., Springer thought the Ark would be relatively unguarded and thus open to assault. Loose Ends, Part 3
Under the command of Roadbuster, a human/Wrecker force made ready to attack the Ark though Circuit Smasher insisted that the Ark was to be destroyed not hijacked by the Autobots as a ticket back to Cybertron. As the warriors made their way to the entrance, the Ark ejected Guardian units. Loose Ends, Part 4 The Guardians did not register Circuit Smasher as a threat however and he was able to enter the ship, managing to overload Aunty and stop her from carrying out Megatron's order of nuking the Earth into nothing. Loose Ends, Part 5
Despite being lobotomized, Starscream managed to regain control of his body seconds before an orbital bombardment destroyed his fellows and made for the Ark. Sunstreaker and Roadbuster did a perimeter sweep but lamented that their lack of manpower made it possible for someone to sneak in. Starscream did just that and was glimpsed by a revived Galvatron. Natural Selection, Part One Galvatron threw his former lieutenant against the wall and demanded to know what made him return to the Ark. Unable to speak, Starscream lead the time-lost Decepticon to Shockwave. Natural Selection, Part Two Realizing the Ark was still air-worthy, Galvatron began its launching sequence. Natural Selection, Part Three All this was revealed to be an elaborate scheme by Shockwave himself who had removed some of Starscream's neural inhibitors so that the Seeker would come to him and be the pilot for the Ark. So intertwined was Shockwave with the warship that he now identified himself as being the Ark with the Ark being him. Natural Selection, Part Five Having decided to stay on Earth, Natural Selection, Part Two Optimus Prime made his way to the Ark to destroy it and arrived just in time to see it take off glimpsing Galvatron on the bridge and mistaking him for Megatron. Natural Selection, Part Five
Optimus contacted Ultra Magnus to warn him about the Ark's approach to Cybertron. En route, Galvatron reflected that in this timeline, he would rule Cybertron. Destiny, Part One As the Ark came within orbit of Cybertron, Starscream and Shockwave staged a mutiny to get Galvatron off the ship and tried to kill him using the asteroid cutters that had saved Cybertron so long ago but were forced to abort when the Ark risked being detected by Cybertron's orbital defences. Destiny, Part Three The two Decepticons soon became infected with a conscience and returned to Cybertron to attack Bludgeon's Warworld, providing the killing blow. Destiny, Part Five
The two took the Ark to a nearby asteroid belt to recover their strength but Shockwave insisted that Starscream take the ship elsewhere lest they be detected by the Autobots. Before Starscream could take any action, the remnant of the Underbase within him surged to life when it detected Jhiaxus. The War to End All Wars, Part 1 The Underbase then possessed Starscream and took full control of the Ark to confront Jhiaxus as it provided exposition to Shockwave. The War to End All Wars, Part 2
The Underbase piloted the Ark directly into Jhiaxus' fleet by simply turning the minds of his soldiers elsewhere before it landed the craft and separated Shockwave from it. The War to End All Wars, Part 3 The Underbase and Shockwave left the Ark to attack the Hub Network. Despite being separated from the ship, Shockwave was able to exert remote control over it and used it to sever several connections between planets. After it had absorbed Jhiaxus, the Underbase left Starscream to die in the Hub's collapse (dick) before Shockwave rescued him, surprising himself with the emotional act, and brought him back to the Ark. The War to End All Wars, Part 4
The two set course back for Cybertron but found the planet had been taken over by the Dark Matrix entity with the population being converted into shadow-leeches. Detecting Ravage, Shockwave used the Ark's lights to distract the leeches while Starscream rescued their comrade. King of Shadows
The Transformers cartoon
Other Vanguard-class ships, pretty much identical to the Ark, are seen taking refugees from Cybertron on a history tape. Desertion of the Dinobots, Part 2 It is suspected that the settlers of known Autobot colonies such as Paradron were among these.
The Ark was launched under the command of Optimus Prime to search for fuel, but ran afoul of two colliding asteroids. Then the Decepticon ship attacked, and the Decepticons under Megatron boarded it. Out of control, the Ark crashed to Earth, smashing into a volcano in what would eventually become a desert. The exact location is unknown, but closely resembled the American southwest. There it rested until a volcanic eruption four million years later reactivated it and its inhabitants. More than Meets the Eye, Part 1
- Crew of the Ark
The Ark's crew consisted of all the 1984 Autobots. A vehicle resembling Grapple's alt mode and called "Hauler" is also seen shortly after the Autobots revived on Earth and may represent another crew member. Some or all of the 1985 Autobots may also have been crewmembers.
The original crew of the Ark consisted of:
Autobot Headquarters
After coming back online, the Decepticons immediately departed. However, the Autobots remained in their crashed ship, which served as their base of operations: Autobot Headquarters.
The ship was severely damaged by the crash and its subsequent entombment; massive rocks were visible inside the ship (whether they penetrated the hull on impact or were formed there later is unclear), and broken and damaged consoles are frequently seen in the background. The ship never flew again. The Autobots seemed to be preparing to re-launch it after the crash of the Decepticon space cruiser, More than Meets the Eye, Part 3 but months later, both the Autobots and the ship remained on Earth. Transport to Oblivion
Over time, the Autobots modified and expanded their base. An elevator provided passage to upper levels within the volcano, Enter the Nightbird and a retractable door sealed off the volcano's crater. Dinobot Island, Part 2 Early on, a small module serving as Ratchet's medical center sat near the main entrance, More than Meets the Eye, Part 1 but was later removed. Explorations by Sideswipe and Brawn revealed a system of caves beyond the ship's walls. The caves revealed a treasure trove of dinosaur bones, which became the inspiration for the Dinobots. S.O.S. Dinobots The base's nerve center was the supercomputer Teletraan I.
The base's geographic location proved a liability on at least two occasions, when Decepticon-induced calamities caused the volcano to become active again. During the first of these eruptions, several Autobots were blasted out of the cone and into the troposphere, requiring Skyfire to come to their rescue. Ironhide managed to bring the eruption to a halt by shooting down some rocks. No, really. The Ultimate Doom, Part 2 The system of caves beneath the base also allowed the Constructicons to enter the base from below, in an attempt to destroy Teletraan I. Heavy Metal War Laserbeak was known to use the volcano's crater as an entry/exit point when on spying missions. Divide and Conquer
Autobot Headquarters remained in use in 2005, though it appears to have been supplanted by Autobot City as the Autobots' primary operations center. During Megatron's massive assault on Autobot City in 2005, Autobot Headquarters fell under assault by Menasor and Bruticus. Transformers: The Animated Movie
By 2006, the base had been equipped with a large number of retractable cannons built into the mountainside. They were not enough to save it from destruction at the hands of the giant Decepticon Trypticon, however. A squad of Autobots led by Warpath made a stand against the oncoming city-bot, but were brushed aside. Warpath ordered Teletraan I to activate the automated defenses, but the barrage of cannonfire gave Trypticon only momentary pause. He smashed the guns, then blasted the entire mountain to rubble.

According to Optimus Primal, the Ark was built using "die-cast" construction, a lost art by the Beast Wars era.
According to Blackarachnia, the Ark was launched under the command of Optimus Prime, carrying a group of the Autobots' "finest heroes". One of the two known copies of the Covenant of Primus was carried aboard. During the voyage, the Ark came under attack by the Nemesis, the flagship of the Decepticon fleet. Decepticon Leader Megatron led a boarding party which attacked the Ark crew. However, both ships were damaged and fell into the gravity well of the nearby planet Earth. The Ark crashed into a semi-active volcano, and the Transformers aboard were sent into emergency stasis lock.
Though Megatron had ostensibly come to prehistoric Earth to look for a massive cache of energon to fuel his war against the Maximal Imperium, he was in reality following instructions recorded by the original Megatron on the Golden Disk from the Voyager space probe. Once on Earth, he apparently found the crash site of the Ark, but buried the entrance to the interior of the volcano. At that point, he had deemed the plan to destroy the deactivated Autobots aboard her and change the outcome of the Great War as a last-chance gamble should he ever be backed into a corner with little hope of escape. Such a situation came to pass while he was a prisoner aboard Ravage's transwarp cruiser, and he convinced the former Decepticon to free him by revealing his plan. The Agenda (Part 2)
After failing to destroy the Maximal base, he traveled to the crash site, where he forced Blackarachnia to deactivate the security systems of Teletraan I and allow him access to the Ark's bridge. Observing that he was walking in the hallowed halls of the past as somebody who was soon to change the very course of history, he flew to the prone form of Optimus Prime and unleashed a torrent of pent-up rage over what he felt was Maximal injustice toward the conquered Predacons. He then fired at Optimus Prime's head, which created a time storm. The Agenda (Part III) Fortunately, the Maximals were able to repair the damage to Optimus, saving his spark and thus preserving the future. Optimal Situation
Megatron would later reenter the Ark with a new mission: take the spark of Megatron and merge it with his own. However, Tarantulas betrayed him and set the Ark to self-destruct. Fortunately, Blackarachnia was able to deactivate the overload. Master Blaster
After securing the Nemesis, Megatron attempted to destroy the Ark (along with all the Decepticons inside, which might have destroyed him as well). The Maximals tried to bring the Ark online and use it to fight against the Nemesis, but the engines had been idle for too long. However, using a shuttle housed in the Ark, Rhinox was able to damage the Nemesis and capture Megatron. After sufficient modifications, the shuttle was later used to transport the Maximals home, while the Ark and its sleeping passengers remained in the volcano to begin the Great War eventually.

"Little?"
Razorbeast and his small, temporally displaced group traveled to the Maximal encampment in the volcano in order to obtain tools to repair the transwarp signal booster which they hoped to find in the wreckage of Ravage's transwarp cruiser. Not willing to risk taking something that might be noticed missing from the Axalon's shell, they instead took what they need from the Ark. The Gathering issue 3

"The Ark" was Vanguard-class Deep Space Interceptor. Transformers: The Ultimate Guide Originally commissioned by Optimus Prime, when he planed for the Autobots to leave Cybertron, its construction continued after this plan was abandoned. Despite the escalation of war, Prime insisted that only the finest material and equipment be used. Prime planed for the ship to be used in locating Energon on other planets and aiding worlds threatened by the Decepticons. On its maiden voyage it was boarded by the crew of the Nemisis, causing it to crash on Earth, were both groups would remain dormant for more than four million years. Following their reactivation, the crashed ship became the Autobots base.More Than Meets The Eye It was destroyed in 2004 while Ratchet and Brawn countered a Decepticon attack headed by Starscream and Bruticus.

The Ark crashed on Earth at some point in the past, leaving the Autobots and Decepticons inside it deactivated. Eventually, the craft was found by the arms trafficker Destro, who passed the information on to the terrorist organization Cobra. Cobra then broke into the Ark, hauled away its dormant passengers, and covered up their tracks so nobody else would discover the ship. G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers issue 1 Unbeknownst to the humans, their break-in caused the Ark's computer, Teletran-One, to be reactivated. G.I.

The United States government subsequently dug up the Ark, dismantled it, and brought the pieces to Roswell for study. G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers issue 2
Following the defeat of Cobra and the Decepticons, the government helped the Autobots construct a new Ark with which to return to Cybertron. G.I. Joe vs. the Transformers issue 6

6.2 million meta-cycles ago, the first legendary vessel to be designated as the Ark was launched from Cybertron under the command of Nova Prime. Its stated mission was to plot a safe passage from the Cybertronian Quadrant of the galaxy through the Benzuli Expanse, though its true mission was Expansion. Spotlight: Optimus Prime Spotlight: Galvatron
Known passengers on this first Ark include:
Dai Atlas was meant to be part of the crew, but lost his place after defying Nova Prime. Primus: All Good Things Tailgate was supposed to rinse out the Ark's coolant chutes before it took off, but fell down a hole and wasn't missed. How to Say Goodbye and Mean It Cybertronian Homesick Blues Rung was also meant to be onboard, but the Senate recalled him just before take-off. Speak, Memory: Part 1
Twenty-thousand astro-cycles out, the Ark disappeared when Galvatron intentionally piloted it directly into the anomaly within the Benzuli Expanse under the orders of Nova Prime. The anomaly turned out to be a gateway to a region known as the Dead Universe, which instantly killed most of the crew as they crossed through. Spotlight: Galvatron Dark Dawn
The Cybertronians back home, not knowing the truth of the Ark's purpose nor fate, honored it by naming numerous ships after it, each distinguished by a number following the title. Among them were the Ark-7, Ark-12, Ark-17, Ark-19, Ark-27, and Ark-32. The original Ark, retroactively given the designation Ark-1, and its crew were granted a memorial in the form of the Ark-1 Memorial Grounds. Chaos Theory Part 2 The Autobot Rung had a model of the Ark-1 on his desk. Bullets
Over the eras following its loss, rumor, myth, and legend sprang up around the ship, obscuring the few existing facts surrounding its fate. In the present day, the fate of the first Ark was one of the "big three" mysteries that Nightbeat liked to dig into in his free time. He eventually got a lead on possible remains of the ship, but it turned out to be a trap specifically set to draw him in. On Gorlam Prime he found wreckage of the correct type and age to come from the ship, and far beneath the surface, he discovered a vast inter-dimensional portal. Before he could dig into the mystery even more, he was overtaken by a strange group of Transformers who captured him and messed with his head, eventually erasing his memory of being there at all. Spotlight: Nightbeat
While Nova Prime's plans for the Expansion failed, the Ark-1 remained in the Dead Universe alongside the wreckage of starships from other universes. Galvatron floated past it when he returned to the strange dimension and met D-Void. Heart of Darkness #2

Transformers vs. G.I. Joe
Millions of years ago, the Ark crash-landed on an island near Scotland. Humans began to venerate the cavernous ship and its frozen inhabitants as a holy place, and by medieval times a group of Cobra druid-priests worked to protect the "island of the gods" from outsiders. Laird Mac Cullen travelled to the Ark's resting place—the "cave of the old gods"—accompanied by his friends and mute brother to consult the druids for news of Viking raids.
The Scotsmen travelled into the sacred grotto, warned not to disturb the resting gods within. The young brother discovered an Energon cube and used it to reactivate a Sky Spy probe. The probe, unable to find machinery, scanned the young boy and exchanged information with him, allowing it to reactivate and partially reconfigure a small Decepticon. The Scotsmen killed the Decepticon and took its parts, fleeing the island after the local druids realized they had desecrated the holy place. After learning the secrets of firearms from the probe, the youngest Mac Cullen returned to the island, drove off the druids, and built Castle Destro over the ruins of the Ark, occasionally consulting the ship's old databanks for information.

Transformers G1: Awakening
The Ark was the Autobot flagship. Following a titanic battle, they used it to leave Cybertron and head out into the cosmos, only for the ship to be attacked by Megatron's forces. The Decepticons invaded the bridge, and the resulting struggle caused the Ark to crash, embedding itself into the side of a volcano on Earth, where it remained for four million years. A volcanic eruption later caused both factions to revive. The Autobots had their work cut out for them battling the Decepticons, and at one point had to face a massive assault on the Ark, which they managed to repel. Transformers G1: Awakening
Transformers: Devastation
The Ark acted as a hub for the Autobots, with the group returning there after each completed mission to recharge and to upgrade their T.E.C.H. and weapons. Following the destruction of the Ferrotaxis, Optimus and Wheeljack returned to the ship to discuss plans for the Optimus Maximus project. Transformers: Devastation

Titanium Series
- Autobot Shuttle Ark (3-inch Robot Masters, 2006)
- The first ever tangible representation of the Ark was a die-cast Titanium figurine at the 3-inch scale. The very forward section was based on the Ark's appearance in the original cartoon, but attached to it is an approximation of the back 2/3s of another Hasbro space ship, the Electronic StarBird created and sold by Milton Bradley in 1978. [1] Odder yet, the technical information on the back refers to the Marvel Comics Ark's destruction at the hands of Fortress Maximus, and that Ark, as seen above, does not resemble either the cartoon Ark or this toy at all.
- The very forward portion of the Titanium is removable, allowing for a more accurate toy. (The most iconic portion of the Ark, the rear engines which were often seen protruding from its rocky resting point on Earth, are not present due to placement of the attachment point.)
Diamond Select
- Autobot Snow Globe (2007)
- The Ark appears as part of the base of this snow globe, mostly embedded in a mountain like in the cartoon. The globe was sculpted by Art Asylum and sold by Diamond Select Toys.
Notes
- The Ark was clearly named after the real-world biblical story of Noah's Ark, a seagoing vessel that carried representatives of every animal species on Earth through the Great Flood. With the Beast Wars cartoon adding the Covenant of Primus to the ship's cargo, it could be said to parallel the other biblical Ark as well.
- Some Autobot shuttles featured in the Marvel UK stories used the cartoon series' design for the Ark.
- A working name for the Ark was "Aunty". This was confirmed by Bob Budiansky at his panel at BotCon 2010.[1]
- Also confirmed by Bob Budiansky was that the ship was originally planned to crash into Mount St. Helens rather than Mount St. Hilary.
- The ship's Japanese name in supplemental media, "Iacon Bridge", was derived from the translation of the English line "We're nearing the bridge to Iacon. One mega-mile to go.", in which "Bridge" was rendered as the English word and not as a Japanese word. From that line, the Japanese assumed that "Iacon Bridge" referred to the ship. A later reference book uses the term to refer to Iacon itself. Consider it the Japanese equivalent of the whole Darksyde misunderstanding, if you will.
Foreign names
- Japanese: Iacon Bridge (アイアコーンブリッジ Aiakōn Burijji), 'Ark' (アーク Āku)
