That was the original plan for POGO, but when we started fresh and
looked at what we are paying for peroxide, POGO shrunk.  It will
probably look more like Armadillo's Lander 2.0 than like DC-X.  It
probably won't have an aeroshell unless we can make one that only
weighs a few ounces.  And even then, the propulsion guys will be
screaming, "I need those ounces!  Those are *my* ounces!"  :-)
