       > Thank you all for coming. We at the Enduranca Space Agency are
       excited to reveal the plan to intercept and land on a comet
       approaching our planet. This will be the first time in history
       anyone has attempted this.
       >
       > The spacecraft is being called the REDROVER, and will include
       an orbiter and main body, as well as a smaller lander to attach
       to the comet.
       >
       > More details to follow. Thank you, and may the spirits bless
       our attempts.

       REDROVER
       Rapid Extraterrestrial Delivery and Robotic ObserVation
       Expedition Recorder
       Launch mass
       Lander: 100 kg (220 lb)

       Payload mass
       Lander: 27 kg (60 lb)
       Dimensions
       Power
       The spacecraft is scheduled to be launched via Sentry rocket,
       although if ARTEMIS is constructed by launch time, it would be
       the primary vehicle. Launch on ARTEMIS would occur at Curiosity
       Space Centre, otherwise the North Columbia Launching Range would
       host the probe.
