He tends to dislike huge vessels, which is why me building such a large one is like pulling teeth. (...) (22 years ago, 27-Aug-02, to lugnet.admin.general, lugnet.space)

| That's one great module. It should work great in lunar gravity! I love the idea behind it and can see many speeders, pods and hoverthings in my mind's eye zipping around it. Keep building and sharing! Alexander (...) (22 years ago, 11-Sep-02, to lugnet.space)
