AS new Astronaut AstroVan

It's based upon an Atlas, not a classic MoHo. For new Boeing CST-100 occupants -- er, pilots and passengers.

And yes, it does indeed look like a rolling billboard, compared to the iconic classic it replaces:



(I suppose this type of thing is inevitable when industry completely takes over previously public endeavors. First it was our sports stadiums, now this, and next: "Exxon proudly presents, The Liberty Insurance Statue, sponsored by IBM - Do you have a tiger in your tank?" )

I must say I like the livery of the Tesla NASA transport better than the billboard like Astro van to for the Starliner cruise. But the car, as cool as it is, just isn’t the same as a trailer or motorhome.
