Abandoned Red Dragon

Had a lot of fun undertaking a more realistic approach for the Red Dragon. "SpaceX announced plans for Red Dragon last year for launch in 2018, but SpaceX President Gwynne Shotwell said in February 2017 that the launch had slipped to 2020 as the company focused on its commercial crew program and a return to flight of the Falcon 9 after a September 2016 pad explosion."
