This is a general view of the SS so far. I'm not all too far yet, but it's taking shape

This is the space station from the top, and shows the S-shape well. I've had some people asking why it's that shape, and the answer can be found on the forum, but essentially, the answer is that it's not… It's galaxy shaped.

This is a pic of the tip of one of the wings. This is where ships dock that are too large to fit in a hangar. There are two such docking stations. Docking style is similar to how an airplane docks at an airport.

This groove at the side is where I'm going to put the main laser defence cannons along the perimeter. There are going to be some guns on the slanted sides, the top, the tower, etc, but this will be the main place. Maybe… Actually, I'm not so sure yet. Maybe I'll try both.
