And arms (white room, top of the reservoir, booster etc) can be moved but nothing else.

This shows the Complex from a side and Space Shuttle ready to launch. So' I've took a mid ground and make some middle of the road variant. They have also moved a lot of panels so it's extremely difficult to get a nice sets of pictures. Nasa started with a tower that had Apollo type crane at the top. Over the span of 30 years, the tower was upgraded and changed. I've just prolonged the boosters and reservoir since the Shuttle seems okay.Īfter starting building the tower, I've realized that there are a lot of variants. The diameter of reservoir should be exactly 9 studs but no to compromise the shape, I've stayed with 8. Therefore I used calculations of (Thanks!) and his Lego Ideas attribution and somewhat enlarged the 10231. On the other side, Lego Expedition 10231 was a bit smaller than 1:110.
