Skylab

33.5k tsampoy  6.5 years ago

Skylab was the first ever U.S space station to ever orbit Earth. It was launched in 1973 in a Saturn V rocket, but it sadly fell off of Earth’s orbit in 1979. But, it still leaves a mark in the space industry. More info Here

This is just a mini build. I’ll soon make a Space Shuttle and the SLS pretty soon. Hopefully before the SLS even launches. ;)

Instructions:
-Throttle 100%
-Activate ag 1 to detach command.
-Activate ag 2 to detach capsule from the rest of the command.
-Activate ag 3 to release parachute.

There’s even an Interior!

PS: I will try to make this in SR2 when it releases.

    @ColonelStriker When I first saw this thing, I thought that the top solar panels spin too. Thanks!

    If I didn’t read the title, I would have thought that the solar panels are helicopter blades
