The PPD-12 Cupola Module is a Command Module housing one Kerbal crew members during their mission. It is inspired by the Cupola module of the International Space Station.

Usage

The Cupola Pod is a one-Kerbal command pod with large windows offering a great view. Unfortunately it is very heavy (even heavier than the three-Kerbal Mk1-2 Command Pod) and also fragile. It does have a pretty good rotary power and energy capacity, but these can be acquired by other, less mass-intense means.

Description

The PPD-12 was developed to provide a high visibility control room for orbital stations, and a place for thoughtful Kerbals to contemplate the beauty of the cosmos.
