the ship cut down on cost to include such a device? Also, normal space missions have to keep enough energy to sustain human life with just the essentials, but on a trip to Mars which could take 68 days (Sample), there would need to be enough energy to keep this shield up for all that time on the way to Mars and on the way back.
