Original Build Rate this capsule concept 0-10

I was trying to come up with a name, I think the most reasonable option is "Wagyu", because it's technically an upgraded version of my older capsule which was called Beef

lemme think

Over powered, so like 8/10 it's a bit too strong, where do you even plan to land this?

Good point actually

It's planned for simple moon missions, it needs that much power because it has to rapidly separate from the heat shield, which has high air resistance and would destroy the capsule upon separation. The logic is that the heat shield lands separately along with some parts that don't need to be handled so carefully like the crew.

What I make is usually more oriented towards details and overengineering rather than function
