Well, five minutes of using Google haven’t turned up anything, so that’s a start. If it has a name, it’s not well-known. ---

This is going to be hard to believe but it was refered to as either Mork’s Egg or Mork’s Ship. Jim ---

I used to watch the show religiously as a kid, and I’m fairly sure it had no name. ---

I’m pretty sure it was named the _Eggspeditioner_. I’m even more pretty sure that I just made that up, though. ---

I am trying to dredge my memories, but I only remember them calling it Mork’s Egg or Ship.
