Year 18, Day 233 (Advanced Duna Lander Launches!)

Construction is complete on the Advanced Duna Lander! The spacecraft is rolled out… and launches!

Launched on the Sarnus Va, the rover will sit in orbit for 41 days until the ideal transfer window to Duna!

In orbit, the lander ejects it’s fairing… and waits! The probe will be entirely un-crewed during it’s flight, including (hopefully) docking with the Spaceport!

The Advanced Duna Lander also includes a cargo segment on the rear that will attach to Duna Spaceport, carrying enough surface science equipment for 4 seperate landings!
