Glowing Space Shuttle by BonsaiBrain

As we all know, successful colonization of other planets is necessary for long-term survival of the human species.  So, obviously, it’s high time we start printing spaceships, like this model of the soon-to-be-defunct Space Shuttle, by Thingiverse designer BonsaiBrain.

You may need some glow-in-the-dark ABS to print it and have it glow.

This afternoon I was looking for some nice space shuttle to print. I found one here thingiverse.com/thing:1966 , but it seemed to be a bit to smooth. So I googled a little and found some fitting object in the 3D galery. I resized it and repraired it using netfabb and after a short time I printed one with a length of about 105 mm. The upper wing is a bit too thin to be printable precisely, but it is a little more detailed than the mentioned space shuttle. But the real cool feature: It is glowing in the dark using phosphorescent PLA. The model you can download here is scaled up to a length of 135 mm hoping that this size is big enough to print a better wing. Greetings BonsaiBrain More about this and where to get the glowing in the dark PLA: ifeelbeta.de
