of course what base is complete without mode of transportation? this need set off the development of a string of rovers.

Shown here being tested on the Mun by Jeb is the RX-2 (background is ancient descent stage with detached science equipment)

some time later, RX-2B arrives at Duna

that's pretty much it, I made it that way purely for aesthetics. If it weren't for an extremely soft landing, I might have tipped over. That would have been because the beams don't dampen impact, and they would've simply tried to bounce off the ground from the landing.

one could probably get around this with downward facing seperatrons
