COSMIC HORIZON RESEARCH BASE

[Operacion Saturno]

A couple of months ago, I share images of a personal project for a Classic Space piece pack.

I send it to Lego Ideas and was rejected. So I designed in around 4 days a space design using all those pieces at once.

This is a space lab base with a internal rocket launching platform. The rocket is manned and can hold a minifig inside, Includes a vehicle and a spacecraft.

Please help me by supporting this base. We need more cool classic space designs and make Classic Space as great as in the 80s.

The design of the drone like spacecraft is awesome! The rocket is pretty neat, but I don't see why NCS will need a rocket when they have access to space ships like the spacecraft. The base is gorgeous, but also huge, it's like 3 or 4 sets in one.

Incredible work!

Thank you for your comment.

Could be various reasons.

1 it's cheaper to use a rocket than a spaceship, maybe the base is on a low budget.

2 It's a reseach facility, so they are actually doing that, testing new rocket designs as an alternative to the use of spaceships.

3 The elevation launching platform can be used not only for launching rockets. 

4 The spacecraft on the base can only fly on atmospheric altitudes. For orbital missions you need a rocket.

5 Manned rockets were one of the last achievements reached by Classic Space, so it´s an hommage to that and the Polaris Lab rocket.

Please don't forget to support!

So many reasons to build a rocket, I never thought about that. Looks like you're a very good reseacher.

I wish you to read the support needed
