An animated concept shows a balloon lifting a rocket into the stratosphere. The rocket separates before ignition and its main engine fires from the bottom for powered flight toward Earth orbit. A solar-electric transfer stage would provide low thrust for a gradual path toward the Moon. In the lunar scene, a single solar-panel mothership stays in orbit while the Oberth spherical lander, a separate self-propelled spherical rover/lunar lander with flush solar patches, a cyan stripe, and sensors, rolls laterally across the Moon in continuous ground contact, leaving a smooth shallow regolith trail.
