Description
Test Render of my revised Moonbase Alpha ModelModel by Myself from information from the "Moonbase Alpha Technical Manual" by David Hirsch, Geoffrey Mandel, and David McConnel
as well as information from Keith Youngs Moonbase Alpha Reference Guide FB Page (which will have to do until I can order the Moonbase Alpha Reference Guide vol.1)
Can't recall ATM who made the Eagles. I'll update when I can find the info.
Lunar surface by Beekeeper, modified for my personal use.
Thanks for looking.

How many voyages into space did it take to transport supplies to build that thing? It's huge!

Couldn't tell you. The show never gave an official 'pre-show' timeline. General conjecture is that it took about 8-12 years to construct Alpha, from laying the initial foundation to what you see in the image.
Unfortunately you must always take fan conjecture with a large grain if salt. It was generally assumed that Alpha was located in the lunar crater Plato, but taking into consideration where Earth appeared above the Lunar Horizon, Alpha is more likely located closer to the Lunar North Pole.
I know TMI!

More like NEEERD! lol Sorry. I couldn't resist.
But I hoestly thought it was a lunar spacestation concidering "Alpha" means first and the moon was the first surface Man landed on in Outer space. (I'm a believer in the moon-landing. (Why is that even up for debate?))
