1. How different in performance is this propulsion method compared to VASIMR, because as far as I know VASIMR doesn't seem to have a power generator efficient enough to power it ?

2. What is the fuel for this rocket ?

3. So the Mars lander / ascent vehicle will carry all the machinery / assets needed for a 30-day stay ?
