"Space X's Dragon system currently operates from Earth to Orbit with 7 pax payload. For my Moongrunt setting, I can imagine that some of these could be modified for lunar operations. Without the issue of escaping earth orbit, the weight saved can be utilised for additional payload (troops). Maybe two or three of these could be strapped into a lunar cycler from Earth orbit / Lagrange points and released in Lunar orbit for independent (but limited duration) ops…" link link From The Man Cave Blog link Armand

Why use a dragon when you can get one of their Star Destr… Starhips, I meant Starships :-) |

I'm going more retro and using the original lunar lander. Perhaps multiple landers. |
