Wow!  This is REALLY cool.  Can't wait for interioir pics.

How did you hold up the rocket at a slant, keeping it airlocked and strong?

Great work!

Years later, the moonbase grew up around it, yet the rocket remained
untouched.  A ruin from long ago.

The Shpleem, trillionaire playboy, grew tired of his constant touring and
traipsing about.  He longed for a home in the moonbase to call his own.  One
day it came to him.  He would claim the ancient rocket and remodel it into
his luxury villa.

The interior of the rocket was removed and filled in with more Shpleem-ish
accomodations.  Namely a large TV and chair and a personal monorail
terminal.  The Shpleem felt that this new home was worthy.  He moved in.  He
then declared himself "Moonbase Mayor".  (The Shpleem is completely insane)
