Jett_Quasar Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 I built this space station originally as starship construction facility, but my ship designs quickly outgrew the launch bay. Now I think I'll use it as a weapons depot.JR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Captain Kirkbal Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Go big or go home! It's a pretty simplistic station with a pretty high parts count. Lots of ion engines along the inside of the ring.-Captain Kirkbal Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bothersome Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 (edited) There is some pretty amazing stuff in this thread.I don't tend to build space stations for show anymore or for pleasing looks even though I am impressed with some of the photo shots of some of the stations posted already. This one is of my latest "space station" that is mission bound for the Jool system.From left to right, the SSTO SV-4 lander for carrying down the visitors and bringing them back up. The Ion propulsion pack for long inter-planetary travel. The science package and original control pod (to be upgraded if needed). The science processing lab with extra storage. Then finally the first stage of rocket propulsion to get the station to escape velocity of Kerbin orbit on time. Notice that all these things are attached via docking ports. The landing legs were for a test when the station was first launched (to help pay for the mission), they are not used)We are currently in a holding orbit waiting on the planets to get in proper alignment.

Zeon Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 Still a WIP. Has room for 34 Kerbals. 8Clamp o tron, 1SR Clamp o. The standard space station design is boring so this is what im working on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umlüx Posted August 14, 2014 Share Posted August 14, 2014 (edited) construction progress of my ISS build after delivery of the QUEST Airlockup next is the PIRS airlock and the the trusswork begins. Edited August 14, 2014 by Umlüx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zeon Posted August 15, 2014 Share Posted August 15, 2014 (edited) Better PicsEquipped with fission reactor, 8 Jr ports, 12regular and 1 Sr. Port at the back (designed to serve as station and tug on interplanetary journey) Seats 32+1 in the command module. 8 Nuclear rockets & 8 ions. However the propulsion modules are connected via docking ports and allows for modified propulsion packages. Planning to build a trailing package of science equipment deployable rovers, landers, and sattelites. Edited August 15, 2014 by Zeon Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDCollie Posted August 17, 2014 Share Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) My basic OKS station in 200km Kerbin orbit. I'm considering slapping some engines on it and taking it to Minmus just to see if I can.EDIT:I've updated the station and given it a name: the KSC Solitary Horizon Edited August 18, 2014 by JDCollie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elloopa Posted August 20, 2014 Share Posted August 20, 2014 This here is my wonderful shipyard. I spent something around 2 hours building it and the launcher. Not as pretty (or big) as I originally planned because I needed to actually get it into space.Javascript is disabled.

s.maelstrom Posted August 21, 2014 Share Posted August 21, 2014 Having had a look through this thread, I don't think I am going to impress anyone with my SS, but here it is anyway:Started off trying to make something similar looking to the ISS, ended up strapping this array of SPs, it was a pain getting it there with FAR enabled though. Took me A LOT of tries. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
