[edit] Use of Shuttle after retirement
NASA plans retire the Shuttle by 2010, but the space planes perhaps could be use after this. Every orbiter was designed for 100 flights, a number never reached. With some modification they can transform into a single stage to orbit (SSTO) and so use for Space Tourism: orbital flights and/or visits to the ISS (currently visited at present) Replacing the three SSME by two Ramjet-Scramjet engines and firing strongers OMS engines in the upper atmosphere shuttle can reach the orbit. Shuttle would be thrown by a carrier Boeing 747 gaining speed enough to ignite de Ramjets. LH2/LOX fuel would storage in tanks into the Payload Bay. This will convert the shuttle in a fully reusable spacecraft. Previous article was written by this. User:210.220.222.140 Previous article was written by this. User:201.220.222.140
Yuck. I wanted to start to edit this but the language is too disgusting. It's like an extremely hokey PR release. And I support private enterprises in space, but this article needs to be scrapped and started over from the beginning. -User
I'm sorry for the language, it is'nt my native. I only want to express an idea probably realizable, maybe the way of make use of an existing spacecraft next to be retired, with more crew-passengers capacity that Soyuz spacecraft. If it could achieve, would be a great leap in space travels. User: 201.220.222.140
Space Shuttles are very old :/ ...do you think Space Adventures can make a maintenance similar to NASA with these machines?, sorry my english. - Jack Stevenson —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.95.18.28 (talk) 07:13, 15 April 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Do not lie on Wikipedia
Do NOT put things that you want to happen on Wikipedia, thinking that they will happen. Unless you can find a legitimate source that Space Adventures is launching a circumlunar flight in 2009, don't say that it will, because it won't. Wikipedia is not a crystal ball.Nat682 (talk) 16:43, 25 May 2008 (UTC)
