3 Floors + 1 Dimension up

10:00 second sleep dream

{I'm standing in a conference room with ½ dozen or so men. Everyone's pretty serious}

My brother sez, "This is what we've been working on." 

I just got it...This must be something like a design review. 

The very first thing I think is, Don't embarrass your brother...Don't embarrass your brother...Don't embarrass your brother.

He gestures for my hand and places a small cardboard model on my extended palm...

...But as I look closer at it, I can see that the object isn't cardboard, it's actually fabricated metal of some kind (maybe 3D printed?).

The entire piece is a burnished bronze and looks something like the top of a British Cruiser tank.

"Can I touch it?" I ask (even though I already am).

He sez, "Sure." but in the most Do. Not. Break. It. voice imaginable.

I'm struck that this is a model for habitation. 

Space habitation.

I had no idea he'd been working on this...

And it's filled with points of articulation.

The bottom level of three has a significant amount of piping. 

The second has nothing much more than what to look to me to be vents and bolted entry ways.

Although the unit as a whole is octagonal, it appears there're four separate living quarters on top. 

I don't think I'd ever thought of dividing a symmetrical octagon in four parts by putting a + through the middle.

The entire top rotates and as you do, the model makes a rattling sound of something heavy being on roller bearings.

I can see a highly stylized item on the outer edge of one side.

I'm shocked. "IS THAT A BARBECUE!?"

67 sez, "Of course. It's not like you can have a swimming pool on the moon."

I'm suddenly completely flooded with emotion. I start crying and hand the model to my brother to keep from dropping it as I do.

I hear one of the guys in the back of the room say, "he's crying." Another sez, "Yeah, he's like that."
