Lunar Orbit Transfer Station

The Lunar Orbit Crew Transfer Station (L.O.C.T.S.) is a remarkable feat of engineering that took five launches to complete. Situated in the orbit around the Moon, the L.O.C.T.S. serves as a vital hub for Human Exploration and Colonization on the moon.

The construction of L.O.C.T.S began with the first launch, which carried the primary hallway to establish a foundation. The primary module, known as the Core, formed the backbone of the station. It houses life support systems, communication equipment, and the control center. Additionally, the launch included the primary docking ports, where the Stage 2 Block 4 Boosters launched from the Empire will dock.

The second and third launches focused on adding the two Secondary Docking Arms, where the four Lunar Landers were to dock when they were not in use bringing colonists down to the Lunar Surface. The modules attached to the Core provided quick transfer from the Two Primary Docking Ports to the Four Secondary Ports. The fourth and fifth launches added two Temporary Engine Modules to the superstructure bottom. These Two Engines were utilized to ascend the entire Transfer Station into Lunar Orbit, where it would sit, ready to be used.

The building of the L.O.C.T.S. was a monumental achievement. It represented the culmination of years of planning, engineering, and collaboration between a few different divisions of the Imperial Space Administration. The station's completion marked a significant milestone in human space exploration, as it provided a platform for further research, technological development, and potential future missions to other celestial bodies.

The Lunar Orbit Crew Transfer Station, with its five successful launches, stands as a testament to human ingenuity and our relentless pursuit of knowledge. It serves as a beacon of hope for the future of space exploration, inspiring generations to come to reach for the stars and unravel the mysteries of the universe.
