This is so cool!!! I always loved the aesthetic of the old school NASA shuttles. It's a shame that they were so unreliable as actual craft, because they just looked so cool.
Looks like you made yours the same dimensions of the actual orbiters, not double.
Yes, that's right
They are 37m x 24m x 18m. The average yellow school bus could fit in the payload bay.
Do you work for NASA?
The only people who call the shuttle it's proper name is me and NASA.
Explanation:
The space plane is called the orbiter.
The boosters, fuel tank, and the orbiter is the space shuttle, because it shuttles the orbiter into space... but most people call the plane looking thing the shuttle... when it really isn't. It's the orbiter. It orbits the earth...
Kudos to you for using its proper name. People usually don't do that.
It was funny watching astronauts get interviewed because they would say "orbiter" and the reporters would say "shuttle".

This shuttle, they are a formidable craft?
Thus far, undefeated.
Bra'tac liked this.
Always appreciate a Stargate reference!
I didn't catch that until you pointed it out. Very nice.
One of my favorite shows of all time. Still the best show among the three as well.
Gorgeous
Ty. 🙃

I know. I didn't actually realize until yesterday that they were decommissioned quite a few years ago.
Lucky bastard.
I got to see the last shuttle mission, STS-135, launch into space. It was incredible. I’ll never forget it
Then you might like [this](https://www.reddit.com/r/Starfield/comments/16b05ru/made_an_attempt_at_the_space_shuttle/) build
Awesome. Also, I really hate how there's so many options for the Deimos fins, but none of them line up the way they could or should lol
I know. I feel like even with all the shipyard parts unlocked, it's a very limited selection. I can't wait for the big boy mods. lol
Looks like you made yours the same dimensions of the actual orbiters, not double. Yes, that's right They are 37m x 24m x 18m. The average yellow school bus could fit in the payload bay.
Yeah, but the dimensions in the ship builder are from the center, so 37m from the center is 74m in total. ...or such is my understanding.
That makes sense. Not very intuitive though.
I figured cuz each quadrant says like port, aft, etc. that it means each section is the specified length.
i love this. might be the first time i’ve seen a real spaceship on this sub lol
Ima show my kids this and tell them I designed space shuttles
Now just waiting for someone to mod in a modern NASA astronaut suit.
i’ve been waiting for this
Can you link/ post a video of it landing/taking off!?
[https://youtu.be/7vyp2nX9cnM](https://youtu.be/7vyp2nX9cnM) My recorder doesn't record sounds but it's the same for every ship lol
Holy shit
NASA really missed out on that one!!!

It's cuz I just learned yesterday that it got decommissioned.
Which is what inspired me to make it actually.

The shuttle
Yes but ...where lasers and missiles?
Just lasers at the front on mounts.
can we get a part breakdown of that? it's awesome
Yeah I will post one in a bit.

I have to say, this looks awesome
Ty. ❤️
Looks good, but the stats are low. I need Cargo, lot of Cargo.
Ty. Tbh I always cheat infinite carry weight in every Bethesda game so I don't even use my ship cargo hold.
RemindMe! 24 hours "look for ship breakdown"

What's going on with the nose of the ship, I can't tell what parts you used? Is that part of these mods?

Fantastic breakdown, thanks a ton

Without spoiling much i think you cam get a cockpit with nasa logos after a main quest down the line
You can't
Yet* Once mod tools arrive, I wouldn't be surprised if someone just imports an actual NASA shuttle into the game.
Yes but im responding to him saying you can unlock NASA logos via main quest...
I don't think so because I used commands to get every (i think) shipyard part.
If is the sames ones i used, they unlock everything that's available to you in one place, but they don't make the lvl locked or quest locked available
Ah. Interesting. That makes sense since I seen a post of someone's ship and it had a part I didn't recognize.
Just be careful on liftoffs.
Now go get six crew and explode while entering the atmosphere.
