Space Stations - For those who make 'em.

Space stations, what do we think? Do you make them at all? Do you use mods to put them into orbit? Do you build them in orbit with mods? Totally stock? Specialist parts?

Suggestion: To get into the mood for this thread, simply play this video here. (this is not mandatory, but it's always good fun)

Here's my first ever space station, it's totally stock and was launched into orbit in one go. My computer had it's sad-face on.

So, do you have any awesome space stations? Let's see them!

These stations are all looking awesome! What mod is the space station parts you all seem to be using?

Recently, I flew a crew transfer flight to my station, rendezvousing with it in it's daftly inclined orbit (I forgot to correct that before separating the engine) and exchanged the generic kerbal crew for Bill, Jeb and Bob. So now my station is crewed by the best of 'em!

this thread has some pretty good contenders, but remember: we're in the big leagues now, hold nothing back

Uh... What? So the thread is now a competition? You've turned a nice little thread about people sharing space stations into "I bet I can make one better than you." Nobody is a contender....

My first attempt at a station, Olympus. I was sick of only using Bill, Jeb, and Bob all the time, so I built them a home in the sky. It lags a little, which makes EVA from it difficult, and it had to use MechJeb to successfully get into orbit because of the lag, and because it tilted horribly while the SRBs were burning. Even with MechJeb, it barely made it.

(apologies, don't know the spoiler code in the new forum)

What parts pack is that?

And its [*spoiler=name] text goes here [*/spoiler], without the asterisks, of course.
