Appearance

The Wunder-Class Freighter has two sections: The main ship section, and the detachable cargo section with a rectangular passage connecting them.2) The main ship section is a rectangular box holding everything necessary for the Ship's running, along with the crew quarters, mess hall, kitchen, and lifesupport systems. At the fore of the main ship section is the bridge, with glass allowing a view of the stars and holding the electronics and control units. The rear cargo section has its own generator both for power and for its engine, and is primarily used for storage.
