 SpaceFuture - Space Access, Star-Raker, and Skylon Posted on: Wed Feb 01, 2006 10:51 pmI was over at ?Spacefuture's vehicle design page, and I've always wondered about the status for some of the vehicles
Specifically, Space Access, Star-Raker, and Skylon I've looked at Skylon's website, and that answered a few of my questions, but does anyone know what happened to the other 2? Are they still going? Are they dead? On holding status? |

Posted on: Thu Feb 09, 2006 8:14 pm Star Raker has been dead for many years. It was my favorite spaceplane concept. Perhaps with a new materials revolution.
I'll stick with an expendable 100 ton to leo expendable HLLV. Star Raker could cost more than VentureStar at 20 billion. |
