DESCRIPTION

Phoenix was a family of single-stage reusable orbital launch vehicles and spacecraft proposed by the defunct Pacific American Launch Systems in the 1980s and 1990s. The 10 meter wide vehicle would reenter like a capsule, with its 24 main engines protected behind doors in the heat shield, and would perform a propulsive landing at the end of each mission. Phoenix was to be a highly-generalized vehicle, with variants proposed for crew launch, satellite launch, space station assembly, as well as lunar and Mars landers.

This file includes the Phoenix-C (Cargo) and Phoenix-E (Expeditionary, the crew variant) vehicle configurations. Both feature a deployable nosecone with a docking port underneath, extendable legs, and opening/closing panels in the heat shield for the main engines. Phoenix-C also has opening payload bay doors for satellite deployment

All materials, textures, and linked libraries are packed in the .blend file. Unapplied modifiers and instancing have been used to reduce file size and enable easy editing.
