Description
Reusable Tanker Touchdown
The Reusable Tanker hovers a few feet above Titan’s surface immediately before touchdown.
The landing site is here seen from a different vantage point compared to previous images (looking south and east from a position further west and north relative to earlier images of the site) – and the production site is now fully operational.
The plant has been set up between the Cargo Lander and the Atmospheric Gasses Collection Rig: equipment housings contain the nitrogen/methane separation plant and the hydrogen/oxygen cracking plant. The water reclamation drill rig tower is visible along with nitrogen, methane, and LH2 & oxygen tanks
For scale note the environment-suited workers visible near the base of the spherical Crew Vehicle, and working at the base of the water reclamation drill rig (tower with 3 spotlights on top), and along the distillation plant equipment housing structures.
All models my own. Models constructed in Bryce 6.5 and rendered in Bryce 7 Pro.
As always thank you for your interest, thoughtful comments, and encouragement.
