Starfleet Shipyards: The Dadaelus Class Orbital Assembly

The decks shift orientation with the turbolift.

Orbital Assembly
Sphere and Cylinder: Launched as a single vehicle from the Moon, the sphere mounted above the Dish, it then proceeds to extend the turbolift separation gantry from the sphere and then the sphere turns ninety degrees aligning the turbolift gantry with its docking mate on the sphere allowing crews to move between the engineering section and sphere. The conventional launch motors are then ejected from the cylinder via the rear hatch, and returned to the lunar surface for re-use. The engineering section is then cleared for the insertion of the warp reactor assembly.

Warp Reactor Assembly: A massive single unmanned payload consisting of the warp core and and retracted nacelles was deployed to orbit in a launch configuration reminicent of the launch of the Phoenix. Lined up with the Dadaelus under construction it deploys its Nacelles and enters the Ship engineering Section by the exposed aft entry, the Nacelles sliding along their docking groove. The interior sleeve rotates, sealing the entry groove and allowing the lower engineering decks to pressurize. The Warp Core itself is in an unpressurized forward section of the Engineering hull.
