Space colonies?

Here are some NASA images of proposed space colonies.
Might be interesting to see these in VS.

Would make for pretty impressive structures. :shock:

Cool... I remember seeing one of these on a spaceship scale comparisons website.

Not sure if these could be used directly in VS, but I think they would look quite at home in chuck's "Tadpole" mod. (His cargo ship uses many components from current NASA and russian designs, and I think the theme would carry over to stations as well.)

I'll have to show him this when he gets back... hopefully he is resting right now.

It would probably be outdated by VS time though. :D
A Step Into Oblivion

Dreams of things that will never be,
Songs of thoughts only I can hear,
Leave me be to sleep forever,
To dream my dreams,
And sing my hymns,
Of things that will never be...
