I was reading an article earlier today about Elon Musk's plan for a "whole new architecture" of space craft, and I saw a photo of his prototype for the Space-X Starship reusable launch vehicle intended for eventual Mars missions, seen here beside an existing Falcon-1 booster.
I was instantly reminded of the eponymous spaceship from the early 1960s classic Rocketship XL5 Supermarionation series. All you need are bigger fins, Elon, a touch of colour, and you're there!
