What was the story with Ambassador Kosh and the living Vorlon ships?
If the Vorlon ships were alive, what did they eat? Did the Vorlons have to "feed" them with fuel? Did the ships have feelings, and if so did the ships feel lonely sitting in the docking port while the ambassador was out and about? Did Ambassador Kosh ever go on a cruise with his ship just to take his ship "for a walk"? Did Kosh ever give his ship a name, or speak to it? Just what kind of relationship did Ambassador Kosh have with his ship, and how do you think Kosh's ship felt about Kosh? Why did the ship want to kill itself after Ambassador Kosh died? Couldn't it find a new Vorlon to chauffeur around?

You are idealizing what it might be, while created by a person, to all views, a human after all, and as such naturally unaware just as you are, moved only by his imagination. The latter in a true sense is never complete. He had his way through the movie, pass final judgments to the wonderers like yourself, trusting you would find answers through your own prism of experience, while to all he said it was that, and from thence you should consider each closed door a chance, not a burden.

Vitaly, are you a Vorlon?
You seem to make as much sense as one.

The Vorlon ship had deep feelings as it felt so bad after Kosh died that it had to hurl itself into the nearest sun. Now that is what I call dedication. Imagine if you died and your car hurled itself off the nearest cliff. Wouldnt that kind of thing impress your relatives?

Little substance to the idea of the movie. You are for one who always asks a question. Try to comprehend the idea of a mystery. It is there for as long as it doesn't defeat the logic of its own existence. Sometimes it must stay that way.

while all these ideas are creative, living does not necessarily mean sentient/emotional or whatever. I doubt the ship was self aware. It might have had artificial intelligence but emotions are another thing entirely, would you want a ship that could blindly follow it's emotions rather than your orders?
Of course, JMS refuses to give solid answers to any of these questions. The appeal of the vorlons/shadows is their mystery, of course.

In response to his ship have an accident, I'm sure his ship was "house broken". Or should I say "port broken". I do wonder what it did to let him know that it had to "go". LOL
