I was inspired by Jon Vanzweitzen's Galaxy Expedition, so I
tried to build an even bigger model, the Galaxy Excursion:

Well, it doesn't use as much trans-yellow, because I ran out.

Fantastic!  I'm not sure anyone else commented about the naming scheme,
but you obviously picked it up.  The Excursion definitely needs more
thrusters, though.  Can you imagine the Ford Excursion with a 4-cylinder
engine?  I'd put 6 in the rear and 2 on each side.

Some day I'll find a deal on a 2nd Galaxy Explorer and see what I can do
with for a combo alternate.
