How come "Let's just throw a dragon dildo the size of a skyscraper into orbit" isn't something the Russians or...

Back when they designed weapons that could really fuck someone's shit up

Mine's bigger than yours, pic related

Huh

I had never heard of this but it's actually REALLY close in specs to the ITS

...

because it's big and expensive, that's why

The ITS and the Orion have similar price tags

I really want to see interior shots of the ITS, I wonder how cramped it's going to be if they plan on bringing 100+ people in 1 trip... Imagine the smell from all that BO

Nat Geo's Mars series has a lot of shots of it but it's for the initial 10 crew mission but yeah

You're working with maybe 6 to 10 rooms (depending on the cargo deck partition and pressurization) on this scale. 100 people for months is a bit of a stretch.

Then again, it's larger than the Mayflower, and 135 people spent months on that. But they did live in absolute squalor and five of them died en route.

Although to be fair NASA's own Mars 2030 mission projects seven astronauts spending almost two years in THIS fucking thing

it was a shitty paper rocket, using imaginary engines, imaginary construction, etc
>hurr we'll just launch from the ocean, that'll work like magic
