Bigelow Space Station 1/30th Scale Model

| 1 Comment

I received two Bigelow Space Station models today. They are 1/30 scale model and include one B.A. Standard Module, two Sundancer Modules, one Propulsion Bus, one 5-Point Node and three Crew Transfer Vehicles. I'm in a rush so I hastily put together one model. The pictures below do NOT include the provided solar arrays. I'll add those later. I'll also take better pictures at some point. A nice little touch is the application of Canadian flags on each module. The model itself is about 0.9 meters wide (3 feet) by 0.75 meters tall (2 1/2 feet).

My thanks to Bigelow Aerospace for providing these models. One will be on display in Vancouver, hopefully at the H.R. MacMillan Space Centre, when I can arrange it.
