The Phoenix 4 will be a very big crew capsule with a full interior. It will be launched on the Sparrow 3 (still in development). It is intended for deep space missions and large crew missions to LDO.

Features

  • at least 6 droonauts can be carried into deep space with plenty of room to move around and be comfortable. I am hoping for at least 10 to LDO.
  • full interior with windows, a hatch, seats, a control panel, and more.
  • abort engines that can also be used as engines once in orbit
  • landing gear and parachutes so it can land on ground, and I will try to make it float so it can also splashdown in water.
  • a docking system that allows astronauts to pass through docking ports(this is based off of a way that @Tweedle_Aerospace did it. Also, I will post the docking port separately so people can add it to their space stations), and the ability to also dock to a normal docking port.
  • hopefully enough range to get to lunar orbit and back
  • If it does not have enough range for cylero orbit and back, or a lunar landing and back, I will release a non-reusable Sparrow 3 for extra range.

    @Tweedle_Aerospace I am trying to design a system that does not use a docking port at all, but there is a good chance it will not work.

    I might change my docking ports a bit. That way our two docking systems could work together even if they aren’t exactly the same. My docking port is still in beta. You can tell if you dock two of mine together. There is a slight gap.
