Description
Launch pad for Chirp X Space center. Featuring the american Space Shuttle.

The Space Shuttle was first launched in 1981 as a part of a program to reuse parts of the vehicles in order to make launches into Earth orbit less expensives.
Soon the shuttle became a true icon and probably one of the most recognizable vehicles in space flight so far.
A total of 6 orbiters were made, 5 of those capable of reaching space. During the program lifetime a total of 135 missions were launched, with 133 successful ones and 2 failed as result of tragic accidents.
In the end the cost reduction wasn't as significative as initially expected so the program was ended in 2011.

Does almost nothing, it's just for looks. Won't take tourists or workers. It is very noisy though. Can be placed anywhere on the ground. Comes with dirt roads (2 unit sepraration) to build crawlerways!!

Don't forget to rate, thanks!

since it is now possible to launch rockets, can you update your mod? that would be awesome

Couldn't you animate the ship on a large enough rotation so that it looks like it's lifting off but it's actually rotating around a fixed point way far away?

I want to believe that this will actually launch.

@The Mad Carrot Don't think I will, at the moment at least. I have planned to make the mission control building and the VAB is already in my collection, both from KSC, if that interests you.
Also the only animations I know can be made are of the revolving kind, like spinning windmills. So I don't think it could be made to launch.

Sick. Always wanted more space center stuff. To bad it doesn't actually launch though. Is that even possible in any way? Also I would like to see a launch site that resembles KCS's Launch Complex 39, complete with the classic Fixed and Rotating Service Structures. That would be great. What do you say? :)
