Super Heavy Logistics Transport for the Moon and Mars

grabcad

This is a concept for a Super Heavy Logistics Transport (SHLT), designed to move the Common Habitat ~5km across the surface of the Moon or Mars. My concept leverages common terrestrial equipment that is used to manipulate oversized loads on a daily basis, with modifications made where necessary to accommodate the lunar/Martian operating environment. This is based on the assumption that the scale of the Starship system moves design constraints away from being traditionally very mass-limited, with a focus instead placed on reduction in hardware cost and complexity, and an increase in longevity.
