Icarus III

This is the third of the Icarus ships sent to the sun to examine suspicious radiation as part of project Minos.

While the faith of Icarus I & II remains highly classified, there's no shortage of wild, speculative, theories.

The scientists living in the three habitation rings are calibrating the sensitive equipment as we speak. They are ready for final approach. Let's wish them luck!

Icarus series vessels fly on anything from D to F impulse class model rocket motors.
