Deep space Dragon spacecraft?
a long duration crew say over a couple weeks one way must arrive in both physical and mental good shape, for not only the outbound but inbound trip. think exercise, for just one requirement
now living in a tin can for a short trip is far easier than a long one..... and as apollo 13 showed us redundancy can save lives so orion isnt a good choice as a single vehicle for long distance trips... better to have manned dragon or manned orion or manned apollo as a CM, but have a bigelow transhab module for extra consumables and spacious living area, one thing for certain a capsule cant be the living area for a trip to mars.. and being able in a emergency to have a safe backup is necessary. besides deep space missions will be beyond orion since they will need a radiation shelter....... orion is just a congress and nasa pork piggie jobs program. it squeals just getting near it |
