Exclamation New Design Sketch...

Presenting the "Terra Nova Probe"...

ST-10 main diameter, about 28" long. The section behind the forward crew compartment is a reduction to ST-7, with "cooling fins" spanning the distance between the transitions. A screw eye is attached to the lower transition, and the 18" parachute packs into the main body.

It has some "Spacemaster" style elements, but I added the four ST-5 pods to change it up. The pods use the "inlet cones" from the SST:Shuttle as tailcones.

The ring is a 1" wide length of ST-20, and has only the two downward-canted fins as attachment pylons. The two main wings are canted downward at the same angle, and have 1/8" dowel tip probes. The pod pylons are TDC and BDC.

Power is 18mm, probably B and C since this appears to be a high-drag design.

Enjoy!
