The Vehicle Assembly Building (abbr. VAB, sometimes wrongly called "Vertical Assembly Building") is a large construction facility at Kerbal Space Center. It is commonly used for designing rockets and other spacecraft in a vertical orientation. Parts can be placed with or without two-, three-, four-, six- and eightfold radial symmetry as opposed to the SPH's bilateral symmetry. Vessels constructed in the VAB will launch from the launch pad as of 0.16 Kerbal scientist and engineers roam through the VAB with various animations.
