Spacecraft Wanderer, conceptual art, circa 2032
The Wanderer is an interplanetary vessel ferrying seven astronauts on a six-year mission across the Solar System.
The Wanderer has many modules, separated by bulkheads. Crew quarters and dining areas are the only sections of the ship to not require artificial gravity as they are located at the end of long rotating arms that provide gravity via centrifugal force.
