Ascent is very easy, since it can hover at all  times on all planets without hydrogen. 
As a exploration ship it is not heavily armed and features only two gatling guns (2x9 gatlings) 
as it's main armament. It has pretty much everything useful onboard, like an assembler, 
a basic refinery, an ore detector, a cryo pod etc. The two hydrogen tanks provide enough 
fuel for about 30 minutes of flying under combat conditions.
