The workhorse of the exploration fleet and a marvel of dynamic engineering, the Destination Mars™ Mars Longship™ planetary transport is the lifeline connecting old Earth to new Mars!
 
First deployed in 2052 to support the expanding Mars outpost, the Mars Longship™ carries crucial supplies and eager explorers from Earth to Mars orbit, completing a circuit between planets every 18 months. But to the colonists the massive vessel is more than a cargo ship – with each return, it’s a vital link to the old planet and a reminder of home.
