“The increasing number of graham crackers and chocolate bars in orbit has created a growing risk of Kessler s’mores.”
Sure looks like a Dragon2 eh…
@troyunrau That specific art is modeled on the Apollo Command Module, aside from changing to oval windows that resemble Dragon 2.
Orion has four windows with the door off on the side compared to them.
Starliner also has the door off to the side, with two windows next to each other.
Dragon 2 has a distinctive change in slope just below the door which isn’t present on Apollo/Orion/Starliner, because the other designs all opted for separate launch escape systems instead of integrating them with the capsule.
