You are correct.
When looking at it without zooming in, it appeared to be 48 x 2. But when I zoom in on the full resolution image (which I neglected to do earlier) it is clearly 64 x 2.
Thanks!

I'm still sleepy this morning, and as a non-native speaker (English has become my third language, originally was the fourth), I had to consult the dictionary to check, but I still think
- the rear (at the aft highlighted above) cells are in fact "running lengthwise rather than across" = longitudinal, and
- the forward (in the bow highlighted above) cells are in fact "lying across" = transverse
here's like closeup:
OK I see now, you meant the arrays
LOL! I was wrong, but will leave it here

LOL no, I don't think so, you said 8x8
and when you look at the shape of the whole array(s), and not of just rows with the cells, it's correct what you said in the post I quote right above!
see what I mean?
I've played around with the VLS using this particular CGI before and assuming the dimensions are close to the actual universal VLS, you could probably fit two 10-module sections into the 055 for a total of 160 VL cells. What a sight that would have made.

8x8 = 8 modules, where each module having 8 cells...
I'm not sure why out of all the things to look at you are interested in this to be honest.

just to finish:
if you looked at the orientation of the whole arrays (shown in blue in the picture above), your original description (Today at 12:36 AM) of their orientation would be correct, though if you looked at the cells (schematically in red above), the orientation would be what I originally thought, but quickly changed after I had reread your original post (I of course refer to my post now: Today at 8:44 AM)
(I do data evaluation at work so first I have to be absolutely sure I understand the input which people bring to me)
had I realized that earlier today, I wouldn't have bothered you (of course it doesn't matter what an orientation is shown on some fanboish picture, whatever the orientation is called), and I'm sorry now

LOL since I'm in English today: awe-inspiring... What a sight that would have made.
