[Spaceships] Martian “Gas” Station

[AlexanderHowl]

Deimos and Phobos are the natural sites for such a well. They have a good delta-v compared to other sources of ice (including Mars), and they may be 20% ice. Lifting gases are unlikely to matter on Mars until you get a Thin atmosphere, and you might as well use water if you are using methane. By avoiding the delta-v associated with landing on Mars, you also end up saving a lot of time and money.
