Description

     The "Space Launch System" model is a highly detailed 1:200 scale reproduction of the rocket currently under development by NASA for the Artemis missions to the moon; the first and only test flight took place in November 2022. The model consists of several pieces printed separately, which are easy to print and assemble.

• The finished model dimensions are approximately 50cm high and 10cm wide for the Space Launch System.
• There are 64 pieces to print, including 13 pieces for the Solid Rocket Booster and 17 pieces for the Core Stage. 
• The total printing time for the entire model is approximately 40 hours.

Tips

Settings

• For infill, 10% is sufficient for a decorative object, and you can also use PrusaSlicer's "Lightning" infill settings. 
• For some parts, support will be necessary.

Printing

• For a better final result, I recommend printing the Jonction_Block last so that you can adjust their size according to your print and have a better fit during assembly. 
• If some parts are loose or don't fit, you can change the scale by +/- 1% in the slicer to get a better fit. 
• The parts are positioned in the optimal direction for printing. 
• For the base, it is recommended to print with 4 perimeters to avoid visible infill.

Post Printing

• You may need to sand the junction areas between the parts for a smoother finish.
