Pioneer 10/11

This one has been a bit of a white whale for me for years. There’s lots of information out there but my skills weren’t quite up to the task. I’m making a little progress on it now but I still have a long way to go. The thermal louvers on the spacecraft bus always stymied me but I’ve started to think of ways to make them buildable. This is just a black and white first draft.

And yes, I’m honestly considering building all of the internal parts, too.

Looks great. Keeping an eye on the louver idea. This scale really does call for that

I’d say you’re off to a great start. Looks good!

(On a totally unrelated note, since you’re in Marion, I’ve started reading “Bloody Williamson,” a book about the Herrin Massacre, the Charlie Birger/Shelton brothers war and other violence from that part of Illinois. Fascinating stuff.)
