Summary

Description
English: Approximately 200 kilometers above the Martian surface, a nuclear thermal propulsion transfer vehicle and the ascent stage of a two-stage Mars lander prepare to rendezvous. The vehicle's nuclear reactors also serve as the primary onboard electrical power source with solar arrays providing backup power. Looming behind the spacecraft, the enormous shield volcano, Ascraeus Mons, rises through early morning clouds with the caldera at its peak eventually reaching above Mars' tenuous atmosphere. Artist concept.
Русский: Приблизительно на высоте 200 километров над поверхностью Марса космический корабль с ядерным двигателем и отделяющаяся ступень двухступенчатого посадочного марсианского модуля готовятся к стыковке. Ядерные реакторы космического корабля также служат первичным бортовым источником электроэнергии с солнечными батареями, обеспечивающими резервное питание. Вырисовываясь позади космического корабля, огромный щитовидный вулкан Аскреус появляется сквозь ранние утренние облака с кальдерой в её пике, в итоге протягиваясь выше разрежённой атмосферы Марса. Представление художника.
Deutsch: Ungefähr in 200 km Höhe über der Marsoberfläche bereiten sich ein Raumfahrzeuge mit einer Atomstrahlturbine und eine abgetrennte Tochterrakete einer zweistufigen Marslandefähre zu einer Raumschiffkopplung. Die Kernreaktoren des Raumfahrzeuges dienen auch zu einer primären bordeigenen Elektroenergielieferant zusammen mit Solarbatterien, die eine Reservespeisung garantieren. Der abzeichnende enorme Schildvulkan Ascraeus Mons hinter dem Raumfahrzeuge kommt zum Vorschein durch frühe morgendliche Dunstschleier mit einer Kaldera in ihrem Pik, der höher als die dünne Marsatmosphäre. Es ist eine Betrachtungsweise eines Künstlers.
