Medical Unit

Medical Unit in Alpha Child includes an observation room. The same basic set also appears, with minor modifications, in Dragon's Domain, The Troubled Spirit and End Of Eternity.

Alpha Child

The exterior door, marked "Medical Unit". The open Travel Tube door beyond is marked "Medical Centre".	The door to the corridor is right; the observation room is left. As usual, there is a shelf unit dividing the room.	One of the two beds.
The other bed.	Beyond are the three windows into the observation room, lit by blue panels. This version of the observation room is four wall panels wide and two panels deep.	The opposite wall to the observation room has windows to the lunar surface.
In the Dragon's Domain version of this set, the observation room is wider (2x6 panels, vs. 2x4 panels in Alpha Child) and has a single large window. In this scene, Koenig enters through a side door at left.	Another difference is the double door entrance (in Alpha Child, there is a single door further to the right). The observation room is at left.	The four windows to the lunar surface are also seen in Dragon's Domain.
In this scene from The Troubled Spirit Helena is facing the two hospital beds.	The smaller observation room is the same size as in Alpha Child. There is a single large observation window.	View from the observation room towards the opposite wall. In the Troubled Spirit only, there are no windows to the lunar surface
In End Of Eternity, the observation room (4x2 panels wide, now with two computers added) is used for operations and autopsies.	End Of Eternity "Intensive Care Unit 2". A large window allows observation. Note the use of colour to evoke mood.	View of the Medical Centre corridor from Intensive Care Unit 2.
