ACES delivers Node module to DSG

United Launch Alliance's ACES upper stage/tug offers some quite spectacular payload capacity for cislunar human spaceflight missions (on the order of 35-50 tons to the NRHO or LDRO orbits DSG would operate in, depending on whether lunar-sourced propellant can be used for the return trip, compared to only 9-13 tons for a comanifested payload on an SLS-Orion flight). With its long-duration cryo storage and docking capability, it can serve as a temporary service module as well, carrying a station module all the way to its destination. Here, a notional Node module is delivered to DSG by one such tug

Updated my ACES model based on some new information and renders from ULA. Got some new less-generic DSG modules in the works as well, hoping to get a scene done in a couple weeks with some of the international modules being proposed by Roscosmos and JAXA
