    The Johannes Kepler

    This is a ship from my youth. It is featured in the Sci-Fi book Spaceship Medic by Harry Harrison who also did the Stainless Steel Rat. It is described as a Lunar to Mars liner and is dumbbell in shape. There are no pictures only some descriptions, so this is going to be 90% guesswork and what I think it looks like.


    Have started getting bits together for this scratch build. One I have longed to build as I love the story even now.

      Agree, some cracking reads by them. Hopefully I can do it justice.
