Celestia v1.6 allows you to control the size of a model using the new SSC directives
NormalizeMesh false (default = true = scale to Radius)
MeshScale 1 (size of units in model)
These directives are very useful when assembling something out of several different objects.

If NormalizeMesh is not used (or is set to true), you can change the size of the object with the CelX functions obj:radius() and obj:setradius(value)

There does not seem to be an equivalent size control for NormalizeMesh false. setraidus only changes the size of the Selected marker (and where Celestia clips the model's image), not the size of the model.

It would be nice if there were CelX functions
getnormalizemesh, setnormalizemesh, getmeshscale and setmeshscale.

It'd be very helpful if they could be provided in v1.6.1 instead of waiting for v1.7
