Oh no, it's the operator cockpit 
The cargo docking bay might be too small for a container 
And some greebling would better convey the sense of scale 
Seriously, good work, chuck.

Excellent work!
I'm curious how the trip back to Mother Earth will go with it With this beautiful 1m cabin, I hope I still can stretch my legs (will try diagonal 
).
*EDIT*
Yeah! 2m diagonal space
But Oh
it has no engines

It uses artificial gravity for propulsion

BTW, this is exactly 100 m long (in fact, the 100 m mark is not printed, otherwise I would have had to make it 100.5 m long), but by the same token they are "stackable"; --you could create a km long variant by attaching 9 extra copies of itself as sub-units.

Not to be pedantic but shouldn't it be the 0 mark that isn't printed, whilst the 100 mark is?

You're right. I think I can just shift the texture. It's 4 texels per millimeter, so I could shift the texture 1 texel and that would put half a mark at each end; I think this would be the most intuitive.

Reminds me of discovering pixel rulers in kde (gnome now as well) for web development.
