NASA's Space Exploration Vehicle (SEV) Concept Boasts Unparalleled Flexibility for In-Space and Surface Missions Alike. Depending on the destination, the SEV is designed to be incredibly versatile; its pressurized cabin can seamlessly adapt to both in-space missions and surface exploration of planetary bodies like Mars and near-Earth asteroids. For surface excursions, the SEV's cabin is mounted atop a rugged chassis equipped with wheels that rotate an astonishing 360 degrees, allowing for effortless navigation in any direction at speeds of up to 10 kilometers per hour. Weighing in at roughly the same size as a pickup truck (with an impressive complement of 12 wheels), this versatile vehicle can comfortably accommodate two astronauts for extended periods of time - up to 14 days, to be exact - complete with on-board sleeping and sanitary facilities. Similarly, its in-space counterpart would feature the same spacious pressurized cabin perched atop a flying platform, providing two astronauts with a safe haven for stays of up to 14 consecutive days.
