By applying suitable Liouville-type results, an appropriate parabolicity criterion, and a version of the Omori-Yau's maximum principle for the drift Laplacian, we infer the uniqueness and nonexistence of complete spacelike translating solitons of the mean curvature flow in a Lorentzian product space R 1 × P f n endowed with a weight function f and whose Riemannian base P n is supposed to be complete and with nonnegative Bakry-Émery-Ricci tensor. When the ambient space is either R 1 × G n , where G n stands for the so-called n-dimensional Gaussian space (which is the Euclidean space R n endowed with the Gaussian probability measure) or R 1 × H f n , where H n denotes the standard n-dimensional hyperbolic space and f is the square of the distance function to a fixed point of H n , we derive some interesting consequences of our uniqueness and nonexistence results. In particular, we obtain nonexistence results concerning entire spacelike translating graphs constructed over P n .
