There's already a lot of sci-fi in TES. Akatosh arriving in a space-ship, for example, or Pelinal being a time-traveling terminator cyborg with a disintegration laser gun for a hand. And yeah, that's in the lore.

You know what would be awesome?
If we would be able to visit said spaceship and obtain a unique weapon.
Maybe a lightswordish weapon or a laser gun which require mana to work?

edit: Sounds like something an experienced modder could easily make tough.

Magicasabers... saw it when I first was looking at workshop on steam... more lore friendly then you'd imagine.

[Ultimuh]

Ah yes I seen that mod.
Never got around to try it out tough.

You could visit it in Daggerfall. It's Direnni Tower (or Adamantia, or the Ur-Tower).

Also the Brass God is essentially a giant magicka-powered mecha.

Isn't that more Steampunk than Sci-Fi?

Still not as steampunk as some of the stuff in Tribunal, arguably.

Bethesda do take a page at times out of the great works of Ultima and Lord of the Rings.

No really, read The Simarillian. Pretty sure at one point the Elves made a spaceship.

huh. got married, start making dragonscale armour, next thing I know, my wife tries attacking me for no reason.

I kill her. 15 in game minutes later, I get a letter of inheritance (600 gold)
not suspicious that I am the only one nearby, she has dwarven crossbow bolts in her, and I'm then only one locally wielding a crossbow?
also, how in hell did they find out about her death so quickly? do they have a courier stalking you, waiting for a friend to die so they can ambush you and say 'sorry for your loss. here's some gold!'?

My dad is a life insurance salesman, so belive me when I say that is more accurate than you could ever imagine.

...I've read the Silmarillion I don't know how many times, and I can't remember anything about a spaceship.

The way their ships sail in a tangent to the world's curvature to reach aman isn't sailing into space? 

[Vorthon]

Yeah, but they aren't spaceships. They're magic sailing ships.

Cyrus sails into space and battles imperial manonauts and thalmor sunbirds.

Another warbling and it was spotted, the vessel that woke the sun threats at the start. Terror Thought looked, thought, and then said aloud: “What the hell is that? It looks like... Scribe, describe it for the record and then suggest.”
 
“Permission to talk without sense for the moment, but the vessel is mundrial, sir, wood with canvas sails, no void stones to engine it out here at all. It’s only seaworthy by every account and yet their course seems set for Masser.”
 
The Mirror shunted again, retracting off the monocles of those that needed to say a prayer to keep their belief-of-self intact. “What should really trouble you, Terror Thought, is that they are waving at us.”
 
“Explain.”
 
The Scribe lightly coughed for effect and cocked her head. “I don’t understand how they’re doing it, sir, but they’re sailing through the void and flying their colors on a wind that they seem to have brought from Mundus. And by waving at us, the Mirror means their flag. It bears a strange mark, seemingly scribbled in a language I can’t translate, but I infer it’s intended for Longbow. In short, they want to be seen by us, sir.”

[Djohaal]

Yeah, but they aren't spaceships. They're magic sailing ships.

They go to space, they are ships. Hence, spaceships
