In the Future the Will be Very Large Ships

In Hamburg there is now a 158,000 tonne ship of cruising. Here is the weighting of some other big ships of history:

Battleship Missouri: 58,000
Titanic: 46,328
Aircraft Carrier Charles de-Gaulle: 40,500

Yes, this ship is bigger than all three together.

A Nimitz class aircraft carrier is 97,000 tons. So it's also the Carl Vinson + the Missouri.
