UCGO Azure-
 
−
This vehicle has a mass of 26000kg, and is able to carry up to four passengers at a time, as well as two cargoes. Its maximum speed is roughly 50km/h, which meets the needs required by the mission. It also runs on electric power, so it need not draw directly from fuel production and/or fuel supplies from other vehicles.
 
−
 
−
Ares Glider (pending)-
 
−
This vehicle would be used for longer ranged missions on Mars, which cannot be accomplished efficiently using the UCGO Azure. It will be confirmed or rejected once its viability on the Martian surface is determined.

These smaller vessels will be signal relay vessels for Mars ground crew. Note: useless to have a com relay system if we have an interplanetary craft in orbit already ready to relay signals.

==General Mission Plan==
+
  1. Build (model required vessels)
 +
  2. Transfer to Mars orbit
 +
  3. Land hauler and crew on Martian surface.
 +
  4. Begin building habitation area.
 +
  5. Begin building propellant resource collection
 +
        1. Fuel up hauler/vehicles if applicable
 +
  6. Start resource/cargo production/research
 +
  7. When Mars-Earth launch window approaches, launch cargo/resources to Earth
 +
        1. If crew is getting rotated, they ride along with the cargo containers.

Some of the systems required by this project haven't been implemented yet. In consequence, there are several parts that need to be developed before we get too far into the mission.

* '''Developer: [empty]''' Mining
−
 
+
The mining and propellant creation is vital to this missions survival, otherwise vessels on Mars will have to carry all their propellant from Earth, and can only use it sparingly.
−
==General Information==
+
* '''Developer: [empty]''' Cargo creation
−
 
+
From the manufacturing of materials, there will need to be UCGO cargo with the proper textures of its contents. Since there is a vast amount of elements, many textures will have to be made.

* '''Developer: [empty]''' Sampler
−
 
+
Since it would be rather difficult to drag the actual drill around to find deposits (especially when that drill is in use), a vehicle capable of taking samples from the ground and analyzing it for its contents needs to be created to assist ground exploration. This will need to use the SDK that will be provided from the Mining module.
