Hello and welcome to New Athens. This space station is a commercial space station focusing on private human space flight to a range of orbits. The core and serivce module are legacy from the Argo Navis space station, the New Athens company bought it on orbit and added to it 5 modules. 3 modules are general purpose modules where crew members can sleep, and experiance micro-gravity. One of these modules has a fold out cupola module offering a wide view of Earth to astronauts (It was supposed to have a hatch, I was going to do it but no time to now, oops, it's also static for now btw), another module has a spacecraft docking port, and the thrid one was going to as well but instead that just has the wide docking standard. On top there is a communications and extra services module, this is used for heat regulation (didn't get the radiators on in time oops), has an extra toilet and stores a few backup ECLSS (lifesupport) systems, it is currently used mostly for storage as it is just there to enable space station expansion. Oh and it also has a docking port for cargo spacecraft. There is a propulsion module which uses an arcjet thruster (sorry this is very rough and not tuned well, I didn't have much time to mess arroudn with it) which enables orbital changes to the station and could probably get you to Brigo if you stocked up on monopropellant, xenon, and took a fair few solar panel charges (and have a lot of patience). The solar panels on the multipurpose moduels aren't electricity producing but the main ones are. KirRu made the main ones for me to thankyou very much to him. To deploy these main ones and also use the main engine just stage 1. There are activiation groups which are labeled, nav lights are on a used docking port on the core module so may not be the useful, same goes for the main lights. The main module contains a large area, more sleeping quarters, is the kitchen and dining area, and has an airlock attached to it for spacewalks, it also has 6 gyroscopes for attitude control. The service module has the current ECLSS system, a toilet, and storage area. This is for a competition hosted by intergrates space systems. I am working so have to sumbit my entry early, I hope to finish it later. Have fun. :-)
