CfM2: Vehicles landing on MarsVehicles carrying both crew and cargo land on the surface of Mars. The cargo vehicles land on their side while the crewed vehicles land upright. The crew compartment is in the upper stage, necessitating the ladder to climb past the first stage. These 2 stage ascent vehicles are refueled with carbon monoxide and oxygen produced from the local Martian atmosphere. Designed during a Mission design workshop during the "Case for Mars 2" conference in Boulder, Colorado, USA, July 1984.

CfM2: Leaving MarsA crew departs the surface of Mars while a replacement crew lands. With proper mission phasing, a Mars base can be occupied continuously. A two-stage ascent rocket must be used due to the lower performance of the carbon monoxide fuel which was produced from the local Martian atmosphere. Designed during a Mission design workshop during the "Case for Mars 2" conference in Boulder, Colorado, USA, July 1984.
