This is a replica of the ship Cepheus from the movie Ad Astra. This long range interplanetary ship is powered by a massive ion thruster with enough range to get to any planet and back. The impressive TWR of this ship allows it to take off the moon with full fuel and land on Mars with half fuel capacity. This ship also features two small ion escape pods. This is a ship Brad Pitt would gladly take to Neptune.

@lordvader0219 noice! Since it does have at least 2m/s^2 on acceleration, that should allow it to complete a journey to somewhere like Urados in a few days, theoretically. Just have prograde acceleration for one day, coast, then accelerate in the other direction for 1 day’s length. Not dissimilar to the method in The Expanse.
I’d also figure I’ll disassemble this craft in my hangar so I could launch it to orbit to test orbital construction. I’ve already gotten the hang of making a vehicle capable of doing that.

@TopSecret2 this craft has about 4 days of delta v. If you want to make a a vizzy program I suggest programming it to fire for no more than one day if you want a round trip.

Hope that curiosity would not kill the cat with this question, but would it be possible to fly this in a brachistochrone trajectory towards Urados while having a Vizzy program guide it towards the lead of the planet (where the planet will end up by the time this vehicle gets there)?

If you want to get past the long waiting. You could either manually turn off the methalox engine at the bottom, or warp beyond 10x and turn on the engines control group. This game allows for warp while using Ion engines.
Check out version 2, it’s even more movie accurate.
