## How it was made

Built in code from published dimensions and photographs, with no image-to-3D generator and no one else’s mesh. 3D model: built by Space Radar from published dimensions (McDowell's GCAT, Wikipedia, the makers' figures); layout read from the makers' renders, looked at only.

built by this project in code (tools/bus-builder, release 2.0.0 batch m4-buses) from published sizes, with the maker's renders and the photographs under `references` LOOKED AT ONLY; no image-to-3D model was used and no published mesh (NASA 3D Resources has none of this bus; scripts/check-model-sources.py, 2026-11-07)

Source: Boeing via Gunter's Space Page: 15 ft high and 7 ft wide (4.6 x 2.1 m). GCAT: ABS-2A, ABS-3A, Eutelsat 115 West B 4.6 x 2.1 m and 40.0 m span; Eutelsat 117 West B 4.8 x 2.1 m and 32.6 m; SES-15 6.0 x 2.0 m and 40 m; SES-20 and SES-21 5.0 x 3.5 m and 30 m (they wear the same file). Drawn: a body 2.1 x 2.1 x 3.6 m, 4.6 m with the deck antennas and the ion thrusters; 40.0 m over the wings. OURS (ESTIMATED): the reflectors' 2.2 m, their 2.0 m arms and tilts, six panels of 2.2 x 2.65 m a wing, the 1.6 m mast, the ion thrusters' places.
