Planet labs

Hello fellow kerbanauts!! I would love to announce the development of The Official Planet Labs mod pack!! The company Gave me the go ahead and said they loved what im doing, so with that and with there permission, i bing you guys the OFFICIAL Planet Labs Mod Pack!!! the company designs and manufactures Triple-CubeSat miniature satellites called Doves that are then delivered into orbit as passengers on other missions. Each Dove Earth observation satellite continuously scans Earth, sending data once it passes over a ground station. Together, Doves form a satellite constellation that provides a complete image of Earth at 3-5 m optical resolution and open data access. Small size and a relatively low cost enable the company to quickly prototype and test new designs, while avoiding a loss of significant assets in a disaster. The images gathered by Doves provide up-to-date information relevant to climate monitoring, crop yield prediction, urban planning, and disaster response.

This is the Dove!

 

 

 

This pack will include the DOVE Imaging Satellite and the Sat Deploying Device (the box that deploys the Doves on the Canadarm 2 on the ISS). Below are progress images that will be updated frequently and remember that this is a big WIP. im about to move onto Animations.. but i have to learn them because i dont know anything about animations... all help in that field is welcome!!. 

i hope for all the feedback i can get! and i hope you all like the models!
