Spin Modules
The most unique areas of the Cabeza De Vaca class ships are the twin spin
modules. While landing on a planet or during shift changes, the modules are despun
and retracted against the main body of the ship. Then access is possible from the
ceiling hatches on the 3rd level. Each Spin module is identical, unless specially
modified prior to a mission. In its standard form, the crew of 25 can almost fit in
one module. In most situations, the crew doubles up (2 per stateroom) in module
while the officers have private quarters in the other module.
Stateroom. Contains fold down bunks, some storage space, and a computer
terminal.
Toilets. There are separate areas on each module for men and
women's toilet facilities.
Showers. This are contains shower stalls and sinks. Separate
areas for men and women in each module.
Exercise Area. This are is often used for various exercise
routines. Machines are built into the walls and fold away when the sections are not
spinning.
Kitchen. Located here is a small amount of food storage, plus food
preparation machines and tables. More food is stored in the cargo areas.
Airlock. Holds a p-suit for every crew member in the section.
Used incase of an emergency to exit the spin modules.
Common area. This area is used for meetings, showing videos, and
general carousing. Tables fold into walls and floors when needed.
