It is strange that we have all manner of rocket research but SPEED. To reach Mars and Earth faster is an obvious research branch and all we have is a Breakthrough.
Maybe add several layers of research to make rockets fly faster because later on Surviving Mars turns into a waiting game.

On the start screen with optional rules, one is fast rockets. (Another is fast research, and another is fast scanning.) None of these prevent achievements. I'm playing a game with all three on, and it's a pleasure. The only slight negative is that you have to pick new areas to scan very often. But someone probably has a mod for that.

I know that's not quite what you're asking for, but maybe it helps? Remember that it's not very easy to just add another tech to research: techs come in sets of 5 and each field has the same number of techs. So, PDX would have to take a tech out to put one in—and it would be someone's favorite tech—or they have to invent 24 techs to go with the one you want. :)
