[i]We (Foale Aerospace) have worked on a project to repurpose the Apollo Command Module CSM119 to return two people on a journey back from Mars, with assistance from the NASA Johnson Space Center. We were able to reduce the mass of the CSM by roughly 50%, compared to its original weight when manufactured, by taking advantage of reduced mission requirements, current day materials for the heat shield, and up to date avionics.[/i]
