Aries Program

The Aries Program was KASA's first manned interplanetary exploration program, the successor to the Orion Manned Missions to the Mun and Minmus. The Aries Program aimed to take Orion era technology and upscale it for a Duna capable mission.

As opposed to the Orion Mission, the Aries Missions could not be performed in a single launch. The Aries Mission profile quickly evolved to be made up of several launches using Orion Era Hardware.
