  • The lighting in the docking tunnel was a very subtle and well done detail.

  • Very Battestar Galactica Camera angles going on there! brilliant!

  • wonderfull :D

  • Who did this work? Kind of grainy so I just figured it's a copy.

  • interesting friend. thanks for the technical specs. i remember watching it in the 70s an i was always asking mi dad how things worked . i still has a model . . . right nest to my TV.  cool yeah ?

  • I am blown away. This is incredible!

  • Acutaly I found the design holds merit still toeay.. just not the landing on earth bit. For a service vehicle.. it, or something very much like it.. would work quite well to supply a permanent moonbase.

    Flying one of these in Orbiter you get the feel for how a wide stance vehicle like this reacts during docking. Great stuff.

  • Very impressive, 5*.

    Of course, the Eagle was actually a nuclear powered extension of 1960s Apollo technology. It was a single stage to orbit (SSTO) spacecraft with the agility of a heavy fighter aircraft. Have achieved orbit it could then break out of low orbit to transfer to the moon - which after 1999 was moving (very fast, one presumes).

    Oh, it had laser weapons too.

    Great fun, but not actually realistically plausible, despite the appearance.

  • Excellent! You even put in a little jiggle when the boarding tube makes contact with the pod!

  • Very well done. Of course I know of time consuming this can be, but I'd love to see more.
