23. Would there be docking bays for ships coming to the hotels? (A K2S Question)

From The Space Library

Jump to: navigation, search

Our space station does not have an internal docking bay that can open up to receive incoming ships, the way Star Trek ships do. Visiting spacecraft will be able to dock with our module at one of its two end cones. In a space station with multiple modules, a node module will be provided between the modules, and this can be the location for the docking of visiting spacecraft.
