- Sierra Space's Dream Chaser spaceplane is edging closer to its inaugural mission to the International Space Station (ISS), with a scheduled launch in the third or fourth quarter of 2024. However, you know, before it can embark on its journey, the spacecraft must complete two significant tests and undergo final preparations at NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida.
This mission will be the first of seven resupply missions to the ISS under the NASA contract. A second reusable spaceplane is also under construction to meet NASA's requirements and potentially service future commercial space stations. After undergoing environmental testing at NASA's Neil Armstrong Test Facility in Ohio since December, the Dream Chaser is ready to be transported to the Kennedy Space Center.

They really need to launch dream chaser on falcon 9. Driving the price down even more 😊
They plan to build their own reusable rocket in the future
Their only chance left.
That is my thoughts as well
Forget about the dream of a new rocket, they need to focus on dream chaser if successful, will become the personal emergency craft for all space stations over dragon, Star-liner and half a dozen others. Launchpad rockets will become a commodity like airlines. They could double the size of dream chaser and still do well. We have to be able to move people. Back n forth easily only once we get infrastructure in place can we push larger tonnage which will require more humans in space which requires more adaptable flexible vehicles. Once human certified If you place a few in Starship you could put up a lot and place them at the new space stations.
It may not be pretty,but everyone needs a life boat for just in case.
Sierra Space and ULA are tightly bound contractually, technically and competitively.
Together, they ARE driving down the price by providing COMPETITION to SpaceX.
They REALLY are doing what they REALLY need to do.
Truly...
I would trust Space X more with this project.
true But in my mind I see a scaled up version on the super heavy. Landing is Starships weakpoint I think
And with what? Falcon Heavy is too big and Falcon9 too small
I like the name Dreamchaser. This is what the 1st space shuttles should have been.
You can't bring back to Earth the Hubble telescope or any satellite with the Dreamchaser...
If I ever go to space, dreamchaser is the only way to fly!
Lets say the coolest way to fly !
yep. me too. i'd rather be gliding down then falling down
@@musicduck4538 that's what I'm talking about
i've always preferred a space plame rather than a capsule, but I would prefer that it ride up on a falcon 9.
Dream chaser is a great name, however it has similar lines to Darkwing Ducks plane.
Thank you for the update..
Exciting times!
Putting Dreamchaser at risk after only one Vulcan successful launch? Risky. Hopefully it will be successful. Good luck.
I think there are plenty of projects for everyone but I would trust Spacex more than anyone else.
I been waiting years for this.
Dream Chaser all the way! A wonderful descendant of the X-20 Dyna-SOAR.
*I ❤️ LIFTING BODIES*
Whose? What about Halle Berry?
Heck yea I didn't think it had engines to do that wow you are truly better than nasa
THANK YOU
I like falcon 9 and dragon. I also like dream chaser and falcon 9.
RTL second stage is necessary step in Space launch cadence.
GOOD!!! once successful thre will definately be zero need for Starliner... the only thing it has going for it right now is the ability to help maneuver/boost the space station, which Dream Chaser is capable of.
Wait late 2024. What you really mean is they don’t know when it will launch.
Excellent stuff bro, not another taxpayer penny to Boeing
Personally, I'd like to see the shift to a SSTO craft, like the X-33 VentureStar. There were a couple other designs/prototypes, such as the DC-X project, though it seems we're still stuck using conventional rockets for the time being. I know people want to think of Dream Chaser as being just a mini shuttle, though it more closely resembles Boeing's X-20 Dyna-SOAR project from the '60s.
I have no idea what's up with Blue Origin and why they've been doing things the way they have been. Seems like they must be run by former defense contractors or something with the idiocy they exhibit ("Oh, somebody else is doing what we want to do, only more quickly and efficiently, so...we must SUE them to slow them down so we can keep dragging our feet and do stuff like Boeing does these days!"). 🤦♂
Speaking of Boeing (or "Boing" as I've seen some use on purpose), they've certainly gone downhill since their heyday as one of the top aerospace firms. Greed and profit over safety and innovation. I miss the 1960s when we still had enthusiasm and "can-do" people. ✌🧔
США СТРАНА СУПЕР ВОЗМОЖНОСТЕЙ
So what does the first stage look like
It can fly on any 5m platform.
👍👍👍❤❤❤🚀🚀🚀
Cool I guess it takes off from a strip
Lol
No
It can land at any large strip. It goes on a 🚀
Dream chaser sounds like another starliner. Billion of dollars spent would have gotten Space X to the moon by now.
Thx
We are so behind in technology. We should already have a few ships permanently in space. I'm not saying a mile long ship but come on now.
How can you compare DreamChaser and Dragon?!? And, why is Dragon not allowed propulsive landing?
ULA can't launch 2 rockets within one year?!? But Sue Origin said they'd ramp up engine production! That is a bad bottleneck for DreamChaser. Should better also try to launch with Falcon.
🚀🏴☠️🎸
How come a American company decides when a space vehicle can launch and go to space not a Australian rocket we don't need the yanks permission and that's final
If Dream Chaser is successful, it will make capsules obsolete. Or maybe I'm just a sucker for a pretty face.
Youre no sucker, Gordon. Capsules, launched on ballistic missile descendants, should be obsolete by now. Why not?
That Humanity are still using these is simply lack of funding and political will, NOT technical challenges.
The Future lies with winged orbiters with jet/scram/rocket engines; taking off and landing like aircraft, to LEO.
Rockets are restricted to Space; Cislunar Transport and Lunar launches to facilitate an Earth/Moon/Near Earth Asteroid economy.
Dammit! After 55 years of observing Spaceflight, I'm still waiting!🛫🛬🛰🚀🌚⌛
I seriously doubt capsules will be done away with since Dream Chaser cannot hold 4 people
what the hell is the point? Its obsolete as soon as starship is fully operational. Its tiny and whata waste of time and money.
Cluck Cluck! MICO! Don't count SpaceX eggs before they hatch!

Don't be silly this is a joke
Who cares anymore. This was supposed to fly even dragon V2 was announced 🤷🏾
The Dragon has been doing a lot more for the past 10 years. This dreamchaser is a copycat mission.
Your Dragon does NOT have wings, Disraeli.
Bound to blow up or not launch with ULA's track record.
Liar. Whats the 2nd best track record in the business
Blow up? As ULAs Vulcan did a couple of months ago?
Oops! Sorry, that was Starship that blew up... again!
Memory like a sieve (but not as bad as the memory of a SpaceX Cultist).
So true. I’m tired of gen whatever shitting on NASA. Everything they learned about space in school was due to the brilliant engineers and technicians at ………….NASA….. 😊
BO is a bad joke.
Do you suffer from it?
Does your only friend call you "Stinky"? User- deodorant.💩👃
ULA launching one or two a year don't cut it. SpaceX has no competition and ULS overdue and over priced.
1. SpaceX can’t launch everything
2. I guess you meant ULA?
3. I don’t think Sierra Space cares what you think and it’s not your money to worry about
