Title : Routine 24-hour flights to the Moon could employ detachable crew modules atop nuclear thermal transfer vehicles

Caption :

Routine 24-hour flights to the Moon could employ detachable crew modules atop nuclear thermal transfer vehicles. By transferring the module from one propulsion element to the next, the passengers could complete their trip to the lunar surface without ever leaving the module. Note: NASA currently has no formal plans for a human expedition to Mars or the Moon.
