Orbital Space Plane Problems

Posted by michael on from the two-tickets-to-the-moon-please dept.

FTL writes "NASA's next big step in space (after getting the remaining Shuttles flying again) is the construction of the Orbital Space Plane. It is a small vehicle designed to transport people to and from ISS. Jeffrey Bell takes a close look at OSP in this article and comes to the conclusion that it will result in yet another crippled vehicle. Sounds like what people were saying about the Shuttle's problems back when it was being designed."

    It is easy to be precise when you're not actually landing. Everyone knows the moon landings were faked.
