Large Cargo Container, for storing items.


For a Large Ship or a Station, the cargo capacity is 125,000 L, and for a small ship, the cargo capacity is 27,000 L.

This size cargo container is a 5x5x5 object for the small ship variant, which makes it 125 times the volume, in terms of blocks of space occupied. For a small ship, this means that it's capacity is 1.728 times more compact (125 small cargo containers would be 125*125 = 15,625 L), which is less efficient for capacity than the medium storage.

The large ship variant of the Large Cargo Container, being a 3x3x3 object (in large blocks) makes it 27 times the physical volume occupied. This makes it 0.296 times as efficient compared to using small containers (yes, this is worse, not better), since it is only 8 times the cargo capacity of the small container.
