Why dry ice?

Lightweight material maybe

It doesn't make sense though as unless the users of the ships can survive at temperatures that dry ice doesn't vaporize/melt at, their body heat would eventually melt it pretty quickly

What anime?

>>9110894
Maybe they figured out something cool to do with it. It's a fucking anime shooting in the dark space of the realm of possibilities, so just accept that in the future they figure out how to make this shit work.

Maybe they hitched a ride on a big fat comet, put some hab modules and some drives on it and rode off into the stars?

Wouldn't a lot of it evaporate in the vacuum of space?

You're not supposed to look for scientific explanations, it's magic.

taking the context of the anime is important, the people who built the dry ice ships were political exiles/refugees who were being aggressively persecuted so perhaps they just grabbed whatever they had and it happened to be dry ice

because it's a show about historical warfare with a scifi texture pack
