With the avionics and the rest of the electronics in the trunk and no need for a reentry heat shield the "dragon" part can be a hollowed out shell allowing the fuel tanks of the larger trunk to be extended into the space that the dragon shell covers rather than having separate "extra tanks" inside the capsule itself since the main purpose of having the "Dragon" part is really just to hold the docking adapter and any additional bracing required. So having the tanks extended into the capsule portion means that bracing can be shorter and lighter and less plumbing will be required as well. That greatly simplifies the vehicle and is exactly in line with the principle that "no part is the best part".
A really great explanation, Spacer 🧑🚀 Thank you!
Let's just hope scrap doesn't land on another farm 😅
Cheers to that, Spacer
why not push it to the sun, same thrust 2 rockets of thrust
That might be too far away 🧑🚀
