7307 Estes Space Corps DARC-1

Skill Level 4 - Expert

The Deep Atmosphere Research Craft is a one-of-a-kind scientific vessel developed by the Space Corps Science Division to explore the gas giants of the outer solar system. Designated DARC-1, this multi-section crewed vessel is designed for entry and maneuverability within the thick atmospheres of a Jupiter-type gaseous planet for study and exploration.

The lifting body characteristics of the DARC-1 flying model rocket are ideal for atmospheric flight in dense gases. It is capable of maintaining station under turbulent conditions, making it an excellent choice for certain types of flights. At the conclusion of its research mission, the DARC-1 initiates return by igniting and subsequently discarding its aft booster section to break atmosphere and set a trajectory for its journey home.

The DARC-1 became operational in 2052 and performed successful atmospheric surveys of Jupiter, Saturn, and some of their major moons. However, an accident over Titan caused the spacecraft to meet a tragic end.

The DARC-1 flying model rocket by Estes Industries is an expert build in the Space Corps fleet. It requires a high level of skill to assemble. Assemble each rocket in the Space Corps range to enhance your building abilities.
