Space Station Phoenix
The all new space station, "Phoenix" was designed by The Phoenix Milita to replace Space Station Fox
Like the Fox, it will be useed as a base of operations for astronomical and scientific experiments, assembly and refueling of spacecraft in orbit, providing intelligence data, relaying communications, monitoring weather and repairing satellites. After a grueling 9 year construction, the Phoenix, which was only supposed to take 5 years to build, was completed on 9\14\2014
- Service Module, berths 5 astronauts and houses many key systems
- Hab Module, berths 8 additonal astronauts
- 4 Docking Nodes
- 5 Laboratory Modules
- PD-55 WD-1 TopaZ Nuclear Reactor
- Communications and Observation Module
- 6 Large and 6 Small Solar Panels for aux power
- Large Engineering Bay (for assembly, repair, and refueling of space craft, probes and satellites)
- 2 20mm CAAR CIWS turrets and 1 PD-421 THEL laser
Other features include radio, infared, ultraviolet and optical telescopes, sattelite and microwave relay systems, and a panoramic view of the earth and stars via polarzed glass.
