Description
The Cargo Pod is split into four decks.

Bottom deck is Engineering, containing all the machinery to maintain life on board and to power the contragrav units. Access to this compartment is via elevator shaft on the right side of this picture, or the vertical escape trunk on the left.

The main cargo hold makes up the largest section of this ship. Within the cargo crib, it can hold two 8x8 rows of 40' shipping containers, 128 in total. The outer section of the cargo crib has an elevator on either side of the cargo crib to raise or lower the shipping containers to the transfer deck. Four storage tanks are are hanging from the ceiling to hold atmosphere for when the cargo hold is depressurized.

The transfer deck uses either contragrav lift modules or an overhead crane to move shipping containers between the cargo crib and the shipping container elevators.

The topmost deck contains a small bridge and a central dromedary compartment with bunks and limited kitchen facilities for use by the pod crew when away from the mothership.
