That looks a lot like Mir!

That was my intention! I modeled the station after Mir. I basically just filled it with solar panels and a bunch of antennas as well as science pieces that extend from the station. I even borrowed the name lol

Oh! Nice. I really need to build stations again...

Building stations is one of my favorite things to do in KSP. Its also the most frustrating for me cause something always goes wrong during launch or assembly. But its totally worth it once it all works out imo.

That and the framerate once you go above 200 parts with over 70 mods...

This isn't really a "build-in-orbit" station, but more of a single launch relay station. I had to attach a comsat to it because I forgot the all important antenna.

I got this monster up in a single launch just today.

I forgot to put outside lighting on it, to help docking.

Ooooppppppssssss.....

Here are some sequential pics. I barely made it to orbit. I'll add a orbital pic later with lights on and panels extended, but I need a break.
