TRIAMESE REUSABLE LAUNCH VEHICLE/SPACECRAFT - May 7, 1969

http://ntrs.nasa.gov/archive/nasa/ca...1977081912.pdf

I've always liked the Triamese concept. No parts to throw away, fully
liquid fueled, escape systems (based on Gemini B capsule, according to the
PDF), jet engine equipped flyback boosters.

I'm sure the aerodynamics were fun, and the booster separation diagram looks
a bit scary.
