Not my usual theme.
But not too bad

- Advanced outpost
- Hoth style generator
- Container (which opens)
- 2 magnetic levitation motorcycles (like the red motorcycle from the Cobra manga)
- Radar
- Antennas
- Small half-octagon technique for the roofs :) (otherwise it was not consistent with the tower)

For the roof technique :


and a little trick or construction technique to block at 45°.
Discovery somewhat by chance
I wedged the part 4733 Brick modified on 4 sides, at 45° to plug the hole.
But the part was moving a little. Which bothered me.
I managed to block it perfectly, with 2 pieces 35464 Slope 45 1x1 double.
It definitely doesn't move anymore.
But also discovered, that the so-called slope 45, was not exactly 45°. It's closer/near to 44° to 44.5°.

Nice build. really like the tower with those corner pieces!

Nice use of quite a number of not so versatile elements like the bike chassis, that classic space corner piece, and that 3-sided piece on both sides of the container.
The overall aesthetics fith the theme perfectly. Well done!

So, based on recently learned lore does that mean the bikes are turned off?
