    Good luck Team. Have been following your progress over time, both the dream chaser and the inflatable habitat project. Best wishes for the way ahead!!

    Now that Vulcan rocket has successfully flown, it’s only a matter of time! Can’t wait!

    This is the one we are waiting for! I think they better start mass producing!

    I’ve been following this for 11 years… 😳 finally… almost…
  • Gonna leave my question to the space experts here since I have no concept of the level of crafting and logistics that go into building a space plane: Why can’t we just strap some atmospheric engines (possibly supersonic?) onto a larger-type shuttle and then have a system to switch to a large booster to give it that final kick into space? I’m certain that was a concept considered by the soviets with the Buran Test Shuttle aside from just reentry tests. Certainly the design would have to be a bit more sleek and aerodynamic to withstand that sort of stress but hypothetically speaking it should be possible, right?

    Is Sierra Space listed on the stock exchange? Wondering if it’s possible to invest in this company?

    Sooo... I see your spacecraft is wraped for transport... If you need an professional unwrapper for these sort of "presents" I wouldn't mind, if you'd offer me a job...
