After some hard work, I present you:

OPSEK

Orbital Piloted aSsembly Experimental/Exploitation Komplex

Yes, I built it in Mun orbit because I kinda already have an ISS replica in LKO.

Why get THIS station kit you may ask?

Simple!

• Easy and reliable launchers
  
• Excess Delta-V can let you adjust each module's trajectory
  
• Each module can be delivered to Kerbin, Mun, or Minmus orbit and beyond!
  
• All panels assigned to 1 action group
  
• Balanced CoM allows for easy adjustment of the station's orbit
  
• Multiple free docking ports
  
• A lot of free space for crew
  
• Small part count (229 atm)
  

Assembly

Launch the core module, NAUKA, with the 6-sided docking node attached into desired celestial body orbit.

After that, dock the Habitation modules with the solar arrays to the sides:

Hab module with arrays:

Next, pop the UMB module opposite of Nauka:

Near Mun Ark:

New airlock module(release soon)

EVA node released

I love the design. Do you have plans for including an MOL module, or did I miss seeing it in one of the current pods?

[iDan122]

I'll add it soonâ„¢, since it is quite easy.

[iDan122]

So I added a science module:

Release soonâ„¢

Awesome!

Thanks for the support guys! In case you wondered, the thing under each separate module in the pics is my Volga tug. You can find a subassembly of it in my sig. Takes light payloads to the Mun/Minmus. It is very useful and isn't too part-heavy, plus it carries an efficient engine and enough fuel to go round.

It's turning into a gorgeous station, iDan. I've wanted to build my own version of the OPSEK station, but never had the patience to get more than a couple modules docked.

That's a beautiful station.

Thanks guys! I might make another station pack soonâ„¢

Added the new science module, it has an antenna and some science equipment.
