Someone building shuttle engines after everyone has decided the shuttle concept is dead


Just from that comment you have not watched the link . Nothing to do with the shuttle , it was a different project called H.O.T.O.L and it wer'nt a American project either

I watched. You missed the SSTO in the vid. SSTO = shuttle!

The only thing it could be for is a shuttle. Not THE SHUTTLE but a shuttle.

Gary the engine will mean it will take off like a normal jet .

No external fuel tanks needed or solid rocket boosters so the things you have said will not be a problem .

I would also say the Poms build stuff better and engineer things better than America . You lot let the profit argument interfere with things and that's why the Shuttle had it's problems, cost cutting and trying to do things on the Cheap

Pity even with the accidents it was still a great machine and more reliable than Space -X 's efforts so far and did keep America on top when it came to Space .. not now thou
