Description
United Solar Consortium:
Stellar Observation Platform 23

Size:
- 63x63x63 Blocks
- 206' 8" (63 Meters) Diameter

Structure Levels:
- Deck 0.5: Emergency Airlock
- Deck 1: Main Graviton Control & Power Storage
- Deck 2: Operations
- Deck 3: Medical
- Deck 4: Main Airlock
- Deck 4.5: Engineering & Auxiliary Graviton Control
- Deck 5: Biosphere

Features:
- Diamond-Carbon Superconductors
- Graviton Manipulators
- Stellar Energy Storage
- Self Sustainable Biosphere
- High Bandwidth Sensor Suites
- Medium Capacity Fabrication Workshop (Processors & Forges)
- Solar Flare Protection Shutters
- Translucent Solar Cells
- Advanced Medical Center with Containment Rooms

Emboldened by the success of the Stellar Observation Platform in the Sol system, humanity began a closer inspection of their nearby stars. Suitable solar systems were selected, and larger long term sustainable habitat Platforms were created. Once they were complete, single use Alcubierre drive units were attached. These drives brought the SOs to a close orbit of the alien suns. And the scientific studies began in earnest. Would one of these solar systems be able to support human life?

Please Note:
- This blueprint uses blocks from almost all free and paid sets
- Substitution blocks can be made from the blueprint cornerstone if you're missing any sets
- This space station is designed to be used as a player's base in the sky
- Over 90% of the interior flooring is heated, although the exterior hull is unheated
- The station utilises a clean SciFi design similar to Star Trek stations and starships
- Most electronics are decorational only to minimize potential lag, except airlock doors

This build is amazing, all the details i love it.

Hi RandomRohirrimRider, the blueprint starts at the lowest block of the space station, and builds upwards. The structure is 63 blocks tall, so there's room to build it in the sky, which is what I did. Definitely build up a bit and then place the blueprint cornerstone if you want the station to be in the sky. I used a temporary narrow pole of blocks to get to the right height.

If you type // into the chat window, the game will show you your coordinates separated by commas. The middle number is your height. Since the world is 256 blocks high, the highest you could start the blueprint is at 190 blocks. Do not start the blueprint any higher than that or it won't fit in the world! When I was creating the space station, I started the build at 148 blocks in the air. That way I had options to build above it if needed.

Hope this helps! :)

Does this automatically build in the sky? or should i build up and then place cornerstone

I am not sure how to read the ingame gps but it says (-1073.3, 116.7, -2477.1)
I removed all of the lower ring lava blocks, it is staying an even 70 during the day and goes down to 59 at night. Easy peasy, but the upper ring I haven't touched it's 112 on the floor and 11 at the ceiling by the windows. I live in creator mode, so no biggie - I still absolutely love the design! :steamhappy:

Mikhala, You could remove a few hardened lava blocks in key areas. Don't remove too many though or you'll go from too hot to too cold. If you have a stripe or checker board pattern with those blocks that should work.

BTW, test out your altitude using the // command to see how high up you are. The lowest blocks of the space station in my world is 150 blocks high (measured from the bottom of the world). That still leaves a few blocks above the station until it reaches the world's ceiling.

It's strange that you're having issues in the ocean. That's where I'm building a big colony spaceship, and I'm getting no overheating issues. I'm going to test out different heating methods before I publish though.

Silver, thanks for looking into it. I noticed the heat in the controls/command center area in the outer ring. It was 178 degrees. I built my space station out in the deep ocean over open water and about 40 blocks upward. I am wondering if I should remove some of the lava rocks to bring down the temperature.

HI Mikhala, I've had a look into the overheating issue you mentioned and I think I've figured out what's going on...

Each Biome seems to have a default maxiumum cold/hot value (probably a base variable plus/minus a certain amount of temperature). For instance, heated floors in an ocean biome are not quite as hot as those in a Savannah, and have no temperature issues. I would guess the same applies for biomes even colder than ocean as well. But there's no need to build in the arctic.

Plus there seems to be a bug in some of the hotter biomes such as Savannah, where a slightly higher "default" temperature is applied in some (but not all) areas of this biome. In those cases the base temperature can be a bit hotter both at ground level and also up high. Even standing on basic ground blocks in those areas will show a gradual heat increase, This will also affect heated floors built way up in the sky.
