The X-Mas Station Challenge:

The Christmas Station is a challenge in which, you will need to launch a 1.25m orbital mini-station in the shape of a Christmas tree. The spacecraft has to have at least 2 Gigantor-X solar arrays, 1 Communitron 16, 1 Stayputnik (as star and main control) and capacity for 4 crew. It has to be in an 80,000km-200,000km orbit around Kerbin. The cost restriction will be 55,000. Only stock parts allowed. Remember to show me your images!

Example:

P.S: Doing this challenge made me build my best orbital cargo ship.

Ok I'll try to be more constructive this time but here are still some observations:

1. How is this challenge scored?

2. What counts as "christmas-tree shaped" station? That is quite vague definition.

1. It isn't, it's for fun.

2. Piled command pods with girder beneath.

Yes but it's got something to do with the fund restriction.

Because, well 50k's a bit tight, mine cost 43,931.
