+===== Ships and Stations =====
-**NOTE!!**
+Ships and stations share a common scale.
-The following values are for **the OLD station scale**! The current scale for stations is:
    Size(pixels) = 5 * size(meters)^(0.68)
    Size(meters) = [size(pixels)/5]^(1/0.68)
-The other values listed here are **for older graphics** that have not been updated.
-This scale should be used for stations and other immobile structures that the player docks with.
-The size of a image representing a station is equal to:
-  Size(pixels) = 250 * Size(km)^(0.5)
-^Object           ^Size (Km) ^Image Size (Pixels) ^Notes ^

 ===== Notes =====
   * If a station is on an asteroid (e.g., a mining colony) use the size of the station as a guide (the asteroid should be less than twice the size of the station).
