Description

This is the iconic Luna spaceship from the 1950 sci-fi classic Destination Moon, with backgrounds by Chesley Bonestell, who was the technical advisor for the film's astronomical art.

Based on a model in the SketchUp 3D Warehouse by MorBius (https://3dwarehouse.sketchup.com/model.html?id=24db45a97b5b8a616a12484fa9d9be10), the one-piece version was cleaned up and repaired in Netfabb, then printed in PLA with supports and raft enabled.

2015-10-21 Update: I have posted a file called "Luna-Thicker Wings.stl", which prints better than the original "Destination Moon" file.

Luna Top and Luna Bottom are based on this version, if you want to print a larger model.
Those with a well-tuned printer should be able to print Luna Bottom/Top without support. (Update: but the V2 versions posted in Dec. 2016 print better still!)

A display stand for Luna is here: http://www.thingiverse.com/thing:654300

2016-12-31 Update: Luna-simplified.stl and a couple of screw-together models designed for printing at larger sizes are now the recommended version for printing. Luna-simplified should print well at any size. No support is needed for these new models, which are recommended over all previous versions. Thanks to muzz64 for the screw-together parts.
