Dark Star (1974)
The crew of the starship Dark Star, on a decades-long mission to destroy unstable planets, battles profound boredom and a malfunctioning ship. Their mundane existence is complicated by a sentient bomb that debates existential philosophy and a alien creature that is more pet than threat. The story explores the absurdity of deep-space travel as the crew attempts to maintain their sanity and complete their mission against increasingly ridiculous odds.
