	Yes!  That's exactly what strikes me when I gaze at mine,
particularly from the back.  It's got that shuttlecraft shape with a
slight widening below the center of gravity.  (I even dug up all the names
used for shuttlecraft in the TV shows and movies; none of them stuck though
I really like Galileo.)
