OASIS

The first OASIS class explorer SHIP was commissioned in the year 2077. It’s primary objective is to seek out new planets suitable for colonization. Fitted with the latest warp technology available during that period it is capable of reaching Alpha Centauri in a matter of days. It was named OASIS due to being equipped with a Hydroponics Bay, an artificial ecosystem that not only provided food and air but also R&R for the crews and offered a way to make long interstellar travel bearable.

The OASIS class was capable of performing multiple non-combat roles. The Science module can be replaced with a Cargo module and refitted into a cargo transport. Minimal combat capability is ensured with only 7 anti-fighter turrets. Further defence is enhanced by drones.

 

For planetary exploration the scientists can land using the surveyor which is equipped with utilities for onsite experiments.

 

 

Well, here it is, my first SHIP, my first SHIPtember and my first MOC after I moved to Billund.

This was great fun to build but also challenging as I’ve never built space before.

It’s 132 studs in length and I have no idea how may parts.

 

Original concept belongs to Skyrion and you can see the amazing art here

 

Special thanks to my friend and colleague Markus Rollbuhler AKA 'rolli for the amazing photo editing and background of the main photo.

 

Hope you like it!
