JustGav Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 prototype for a new shuttle, to go into commision circa 2015 There is no new shuttle... it is complete replacement transport system going back to the usual rocket design. They are however reusing aspects of the shuttle design. They should just use the damn Buran designs, but hey ho Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JustGav Posted October 27, 2009 Share Posted October 27, 2009 Sorry missunderstood the old bbc website. They are reusing aspects like the SRB (Solid Rocket Boosters), but the actual orbiter itself is being completely decommisioned which is a shame, but it is almost a 40-50yr old design now.
