Description
Mars Colony Nuclear SSTO Launch
This is a follow-up to: Mars Colony Heavy Lift Nuclear SSTO
The Heavy Lift SSTO is a support vehicle for the Mars colony terraforming program. Vehicle diagrams for the SSTO along with the Callisto Crew vehicle and Cargo & Drill Rig transporters will follow.
I have been working this series and the concepts involved in such detail because, in my future history, terraforming Mars is impetus which results in the spread of human civilization across the entire solar system -- previous posts can be found linked below.

All models are my own, models constructed in Bryce 6.5 and rendered in Bryce 7 Pro.
Background Mars textures use NASA rover imagery applied as surface textures.
As always thank you for your interest, thoughtful comments, and encouragement.
