Solar Explorer Concept

Welcome back!

I always like to make Babylon 5 Earth Force Models. However, I think its time to upload what I think a solid concept design would be for a Solar Explorer Vessel would look like, conceptually anyway.

This ship has 2 Habitat Rings out of 4. Ring 1, Habitat, 2 Rotational Control, 3 Habitat & 4 Docking / Logistics.
The Aft of the ship houses the main drive Engines and Fusion Reactor, as well as missiles for obstacle defense or probe launch. Forward we have the Main Control areas along the Stem of the ship with its Beam comprising of Rotational Supports. Smaller thurstors are present in various locations to provide navigation and on the rotational ring to provide artificial Gravity. You'll also see various other sensor equipment and communications thru out the forward areas of the ship and bridge. Additionally the Forward Mast would serve as mounting points for other equipment & docking. Also external Hard points are arrayed around Ring 1 for further equipment. Solar Arra
