    Info

    ...Thanks for all the imput, folks!

    The thruster isn't really that efficient, it's just convenient to have the spacecraft's decks and fittings optimized for burns, especially since it doesn't matter the rest of the time in free-fall. The image below shows the spacecraft with its docking ring extended, which is strong enough to support the ship at the end of a rotating spindle. That way, centrifugal force can impart gravity, and the decks are properly oriented no matter what mode the aerospacecraft is in. This may sound funny, but it makes sense in the context of the setting.
