When talking Earth orbit and the great vessels currently flying around, we shall not forget about the past! Here comes the mother of all orbital space stations:

15 years of duty in Earth orbit. More years to come in your childrens orbit!
The MIR Space Station

MAIN FACTS:
- Configuration as of 2006
- Modular concept
- Comes with 2 Soyuz capsules
- Including cosmonaut minifigure(s)

PLAYABLE FEATURES:
- Turn the solar panels to always catch the best sun!
- Reloacate some scientific experiments attacht to the station
- (De)attach the soyuz capsules (they are threeparted to play a realistic return to earth)
- Rearrange the station to your own ideas

POSSIBLE EXTENTIONS (for illustration):
- A Space Shuttle based on the deceased model 3367 (but heavily modified) could be attached to the Shuttle-Docking port (like the real one used to do).
- A rocket of set 3368 can be used to lift the Soyuz capsules to the MIR

NICE TO KNOW:
- Uses the same Soyuz capsules and a compatible shuttle docking port as my International Space Station (http://ideas.lego.com/projects/61057) does.
