SilverDart is a proposed eight person lifting body orbital spaceplane announced by PlanetSpace . The company intends to compete for contracts for cargo and crew flights to the International Space Station ISS under the NASA Commercial orbital transportation services Commercial Orbital Transportation Services COTS program. It is named after the first airplane to fly in what was then the British Empire the AEA SilverDartSilverDart . In February 2007 NASA announced plans to provide PlanetSpace with requirements and specifications to provide crew and cargo flights using the SilverDart to the International Space Station under the terms of the National Aeronautics and Space Act . Design The SilverDart is based on the US Airforce Flight Dynamics Laboratory FDL 7 program, a lifting body design. In the orbital configuration, the SilverDart will be launched on top of a single NOVA rocket which is basically 10 Canadian Arrow rocket engines clustered together. A Sub orbital spaceflight suborbital configuration using a single rocket engine for point to point travel is also being considered. It is capable of stable hypersonic atmospheric flight at speeds up to Mach 22, and will glide to earth like the Space Shuttle . NASA s Martin Marietta X 24 X 24B test aircraft is also based on the FDL 7 lifting body. The ship will use a metal skin that will be more resistant ... to began in December 2009.

Fuji was a manned spacecraft of the space capsule kind, proposed by Japan s Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency History National Space Development Agency NASDA Advanced mission Research center in December 2001. The Fuji design was ultimately not adopted. Background In Japan , manned space flight prior to 2001 had depended on the United States USA Space Shuttle program , and independent development of spacecraft was not adopted as a short to mid term goal. Instead, NASDA choose to recommend use of Reusable Launch Systems with wings such as the US Space Shuttle and HOPE X HOPE . However, after the Japanese government reorganized their space exploration efforts under the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency JAXA , Fuji was proposed as a candidate for space missions. The Space Shuttle Columbia disaster in 2003 also raised questions about the safety of reusable systems, and JAXA felt that the Fuji design, relying on a disposable capsule, would be possible to develop in relatively short span of eight years. Design The proposed design of Fuji was a modular spacecraft similar to the Gemini spacecraft Gemini , Apollo spacecraft Apollo and Soyuz spacecraft Soyuz spacecraft , with various configurations filling different roles. Minimum System The Minimum System configuration of Fuji was essentially just a Reentry capsule with a Human spaceflight manned space flight endurance of 24 hours. It was scheduled for development at the early stage of the overall project. This minimum system called ... spacecraft Soyuz spacecraft s Orbital Module OM .
