Years ago when I was part of the Constalation team I told them that Apollo 11s biggest problem was it didnt really take all of us with it. Only a little TV and pretty grainy which was odd sence 3 months later Apollo 12 took a color camera and the J missions all had a remote control camera on the rover . My Idea was to add a camera called " Golden Eye" to the outside of the CM so to see these pictures is awesome.

I place cameras at the tips of the wings. On the gray side not blue side. Not sure if really there also.

Also I think I can just put GMT and MET on the timer

I think an event timer would require more buttons to set the timer digits

Shots of the Orion.

Going to rebuilt the SM. Going to use a white foil for the bottom. But solar panels need a new texture.

you might think about adding the star trackers back there and take a look at the insulation near the OMS

Yes. I can. It looks like the covering on the Connector is more square. Not sure about the HGA antenna?

Yes no word on the HGA and can't see any thing looking like one
Hi. So this intrigued me and I did a bit of googling. I am surprised that it is not easy to find good information on Orion's antennas, but I found something. There is no HGA, instead several phased-array antennas. See the attached screenshot taken from this youtube video:

I think what you labeled fuel port is the connector port.

Looking at the SM. The star tracker is below the connector with is more square than round. The solar panels are angled 60 degrees. They are 30 degrees off the center. What I can't tell is there is a box near the star tracker. But seems there is another box as the star tracker is not in it?
