A slightly belated welcome to Whiffworld.(I've been somewhat distracted lately)  The inhabitants are "mostly harmless"  but do beware of wildly soaring imaginations, passing anachronisms and the occasional rampaging paradox.

Thanks for the welcome, and the caution of Whiffworld populace.

It means I was trying to work out what you were building but the last couple of posts have brought me closer to understanding. :thumbsup:

I too am getting closer to understanding where I am going with this build. Yet, I still have no idea for the 'why' of it. Perhaps I'll find out when I get closer to finishing it.

The 600mm dome arrived a few days ago.

Being happy with the above dome I felt confident that any further domes from this company will be just as pristine. So today I ordered two 300mm domes for the other two smaller modules.

Playing around with other possible above-ground modules. The possibilities are endless.

I still have not fully decided what to put into the large dome. More than likely to be vegetation - like in that old classic sci-fi movie 'Silent Running'. But then again I may change my mind on that.

The one thing I am now sure about is that the diorama environment will influence what type of module, or sub-diorama, will be used. Likewise, the reverse situation is that a dome module strongly suggests that the outside environment is unfavourable to whatever is in the dome. Most likely reason for a dome on Earth is to isolate from some post-apocalyptic incident, such as a pandemic, pollution or some other dirty air scenario. Or a program such as SpaceX Mars Colonization, surviving a hostile gaseous environment.

I can't make up my mind if those diagrams are similar to the ones my old maths master, Mr Ellis, used to draw on the blackboard or out of some Roman infantry officers training manual entitled "defensive formations for any occasion" as I'm completely and utterly flummoxed, but intrigued nonetheless  ;D  :thumbsup:
Do not condemn the judgement of another because it differs from your own. You may both be wrong.
