Best dungeons in space?

So what published adventures would you recommend for a dungeon crawl in space? I'm looking for something to use with Mongoose Traveller, but stuff from other systems is welcome.
You can shake your fists at the sky. You can do a rain dance. You can ignore the clouds completely. But none of them move the clouds.

"for fantasy role playing campaigns played with pencil, paper, and your imagination"

Another fanzine for diceless roleplaying? I'm getting tired of the Amber shilling on these boards, frankly.

I like the Hulk Hogan mustache on the alien though. That's a message.
"Role-playing as a hobby always has been (and probably always will be) the demesne of the idle intellectual, as roleplaying requires several of the traits possesed by those with too much time and too much wasted potential."

Darn it and I'm still working on my random Derelict designer. (Of course its not a dungeon its a giant space station, or a ancients derelict, or even a mine on an asteroid, but still.)

On weird fantasy: "The Otus/Elmore rule: When adding something new to the campaign, try and imagine how Erol Otus would depict it. If you can, that\'s far enough...it\'s a good idea. If you can picture a Larry Elmore version...it\'s far too mundane and boring, excise immediately." - Kellri, K&K Alehouse

Death Station, part of Double Adventure 3 and Classic Traveller. There should be little to no difficulty using it with Mongoose Traveller. It has been described as Alien meets Firefly's Reavers.

Horde/The Chamax Plague, which is Double Adventure 5 for Classic Traveller. Again, There should be little to no difficulty using it with Mongoose Traveller. These have been described as Aliens meets War of the Worlds.

For more of a feeling of rapid-fire problem solving, get ahold of One Crowded Hour written by Martin Dougherty and put out by Avenger Enterprises. It is set up more for convention style play, but I cannot recommend it highly enough.

The original Crash on Volturnus Trilogy for Star Frontiers had some dungeon/building complex adventures.

You should look up a walk through for the video game Dead Space. It would give you a lot of ideas. The strategy guide is probably cheep.

Well, the ultimate one would be the ship from Metamorphosis Alpha.

Danger

I seem to recall there being some nasty one (i.e. a body count warning proceeded the body of the text) 'bout an abandoned asteroid station with its resident assassin droid-leftover-from-the-clone-wars lurking about for the ol' WEG Star Wars system in an old Challenge magazine.

If interested, I'll see if I can find it, scan it and so on.
I start from his boots and work my way up. It takes a good half a roll to encompass his jolly round belly alone. Soon, Father Christmas is completely wrapped in clingfilm. It is not quite so good as wrapping Roy but it is enjoyable nonetheless and is certainly a feather in my cap.
