Description

Okay, still working on the station. I picked up the complete Babylon 5 series and when I was watching Season One, they had some frames of B5 being built in the opening credits, so I got inspired to try some things on my station. Next thing I know, I'm adding walls and floors (and trying to stay inside the 65K polygon limit of I3D Modeler). Been working on the house Re-Fi as well as a side project for a former VP at RadioFrame, so this is where I am at for now. Hope to redo the domes this weekend if I have time. background is Flaming Pear's LunarCell, station created in Inspire 3D Modeler and rendered in Inspire 3D Layout. T4L&C

This is excellent... Something i have always wondered about with stations like this. They have to have artifically induced gravity, because they dont use rotation to create it, correct. Is that what you think your station would use?

I actually envisioned the main dome as rotating during this phase in the life of the Empire (in the series). The smaller domes I figured would be zero G environment. As the technology developed, the introduction of plating or other grav tech would be a retro fit as the original design would account for the desire to add grav "in the future".
