Book Description
'We are going forward with research on a new Orient Express that could, by the end of the next decade, take off from Dulles Airport and accelerate up to 25 times the speed of sound, attaining low-earth orbit or flying to Tokyo within two hours.' With these words, President Reagan, in his 1986 State of the Union message, announced the beginning of the $3.3 billion effort known as the National Aerospace Plane Program, or NASP. With dozens of photographs, drawings, and tables, the book offers a thorough assessment of the program for the engineer and marketing executive alike. Author T.A. Heppenheimer separates the hype from the facts, and his conclusions are backed with scientific detail not found elsewhere.

Report of the Defense Science Board Task Force on National Aero-Space Plane (Nasp) Program
Author: National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA)
Publisher: Createspace Independent Publishing Platform
ISBN: 9781722717780
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 66
Book Description
Six years ago, the Defense Science Board (DSB) initiated a review of the concept, technical basis, program content, and missions of the National Aerospace Plane (NASP) program. The report was completed in Sep. 1988, and the recommendations contributed to strengthening the technical efforts in the NASP program. Since then, substantial technological progress has been made in the technology development phase (Phase 2) of the program. Phase 2 of the program is currently scheduled to end in late Fiscal Year 1993, with a decision whether to proceed to the experimental flight vehicle phase (Phase 3) to be made at that time. This decision will be a very significant one for the Department of Defense (DoD) and the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA). In February of this year, the DSB was chartered to revisit the NASP program to assess the degree to which the many technical challenges of the program have been resolved, or are likely to be resolved by the end of Phase 2. Unspecified Center...
