Red Zone Exploration Vehicle

Testing begins on a new spacecraft capable of reaching the Red Planet; inspired by nautical vehicles, the craft is well equipped to traverse the harsh vacuum of space. 

This vehicle features a telescope to observe distant objects, large engine pods to propel it to it's destination, and exterior drill and claw for collecting rock samples for examination. Inside is a mini greenhouse capable of growing food to sustain the crew for the long journey, rover bay and laboratory.
