First Station -- Coming together nicely

[robogungt8]

Below is a picture of my first station!! After recently learning to dock, I thought that the best way to practice was to construct a small station. Apparently, everything is going great, because the station that was supposed to have only a few modules is quickly turning into a fully-fledged orbiting base.

Unfortunately, I don't have any pictures of the station under construction until now. This is the current progress, and I have flown five missions up to it, four of which added new modules.

I have to say, SQUAD has done a great job with the tweakable lights:

As you can see, docked to the station is my Orion Capsule replica, which was launched with a SLS Block 1A Crew Variant. All stock and low part count.

The SLS replica is in the Spacecraft Exchange! You can go to the thread with this link: http://forum.kerbalspaceprogram.com/threads/75633-SLS-Block-1A-Crew-Variant-Replica?p=1073393#post1073393

Wow. it looks like giant, hot energy cannon aimed at Kerbin. Keeping the world hostage?

[robogungt8]

hmmm... Good point. Maybe I should point it the other way. I kinda pictured it as a large communications dish or a radio telescope...

I really like your idea of building a dish out of panels. Looks really neat!

Thanks! I'm not the first person to do it, but I can't remember who I saw that gave me the idea...
