Description

Phobos, the largest of Mars' two moons, would be a convenient site for a transport interchange between Earth interorbital transporters and shuttle spacecraft launched from Mars. This shuttle is shown re-entering Mars' thin atmosphere (1% of Earth's), to a landing with light cargo, and personnel returned from Earth leave. The shuttle is launched by mag-lev track laid upon Olympus Mons: http://www.eosmarsprogram.org/Page31-30-Space.html
