Such a marvel of engineering, and they gave it the most hideous paint job possible.

I guess fuck sleeping on the nights they do those outside light shows.

Hold up guys, we have 2 screws left over somehow.

Built in Nagasaki Japan by Mitsubishi fyi

Like Lego's, Huge Lego's.

I was going to ask what is the advantage of block building over regular building in place (though I'm sure I've heard the explanation via Discovery Channel, History Channel or National Geographic Channel special on modern mega ship building) but found something that explained it well enough: http://www.marineinsight.com/naval-architecture/advantages-of-advanced-outfitting-shipbuilding/. So now just looking for a further ELI5 confirmation/explanation.
