[Spaceships] [High-Tech] [Action] Cydonia Or Bust, TL8

First thing I'd consider is if there are any plot-convienient NEOs around... one could imagine a modified shuttle reaching orbit-crossing Comet with a NERVA Rocket in it's hold, some mining equipment and inflatible fuel tanks.

Better yet, the Rocket and other gear launched into LEO by Chemical Rockets, collected and dlivered to the Comet Staging area.

Also, I assume the launch would occur when Earth & Mars are closest.
