God, I hope not - I'd rather we develop a robust, reliable OSP - we don't want to go back to spashdowns. Is there any reasoning behind this hope? Jon |

Return of Apollo
To me, the Lockheed Martin lifting body looks like
the most interesting concept of those displayed to date. It should provide good cross-range while minimizing the standard wing weight penalty. Mind you, I'm sure we have not seen all of the ideas that each company is working on. There are a lot of great images and some good info he http://www.ast.lmco.com/osp/ Jon |
