Space Station One

Space Station One was a fictional space port featured in the "Space Odyssey" mythos created by Arthur C. Clarke. It was first featured in the 1968 novel 2001: A Space Odyssey, which was published to coincide with the Stanley Kubrick film of the same name.

Description
Space Station One was located midway between the Earth and the moon. It was a slowly revolving spherical structure, three-hundred yards in diameter. A centralized docking web rotated in opposition to that of the main body of the station, and allowed for various shuttles and larger spacecraft such as the Titov-V and Orion III spaceplanes to couple with long, mechanical arms that extended outward from the center ring. The opposing rotation of the axis in contrast to the rest of the station allowed for more efficient manueverability of incoming vessels.
