Miguel Posted October 28, 2009 Share Posted October 28, 2009 They should just use the damn Buran designs, but hey ho Using a Soviet design wouldn't sit well with Uncle Sam...no wait:d It will be a sad day when the Shuttle is retired:( My only concern with returning back to a pop rocket design is will there be more debris left floating about up there from the final stage? It's not like we need anymore sh1te left up there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
