I am pleased to announce my new creation the 'Atlas' Deep Space Freighter. She is a single-pilot Space-Tug and standard freight frame. The tug provides initial velocity and maneuvering, as well as loading/unloading of containers from the frame. The frame itself matches standard container dimensions and can be daisy-chained for larger shipments. Each frame is equiped with long-range sensor and comm package and a fold out solar sail. The 'Atlas' was recently collision tested at WAMALUG's Nov. meeting. The tug met the ground with quite an impact. With the help of several on-hand mechanics, she was soon space-worthy again. Photos taken before the crash.

I have been thinking of using those Gungan Sub "bubbles" in much the same way. Nice ship. -- Jason King LugNet #665 Aaron M. Sneary <asneary@shakespearedc.org> wrote in message news:Gn2634.KD@lugnet.com... (...) provides (...) containers (...) can (...) (24 years ago, 19-Nov-01, to lugnet.space)
