It's DONE! Sierra Space Finally Declared Dream Chaser Tenacity Launch! SpaceX Worried...

[@potter2702]

I really hope this Dreamchaser is a success, competition is always good.

[@matthewakian2]

Thanks for posting. Can't wait to see this fly.

[@whiplash8011]

You gotta put your heart into it. We don’t need three space planes. We need 30.

[@johnrday2023]

Well, Sierra Space is advancing (even tho' slowly), and if tested/proven successfully,will become asset - will come down to actual total flight 'costing' .

Over engineering a product always complicates production and performance.

[@XCX237]

I think it would be better if it could just stay up there and be reused permanently as a runabout. That's what we need rather than cargo only vehicles. Up snd back only is a serious limitation 🤔 IMO

[@maxidaho]

A runabout in orbit wouldn't need 2/3 of the tech on board and none of the control surfaces. It would be like taking and ICBM to go to the grocery store.

[@benjaminblair3619]

We need to build a danoob class runnabot

[@Jake-yx7ct]

They have to depend on a launch platform. They seem to not have confidence on what they build, doubts arise mid build.

[@your20downrange]

I hope they learned a lesson from the STS program and inspect the tiles before reentry.

[@katrine-pearls]

In reference to Dream Chazer fr Sierra. I am hopeful tht it will launch this coming May of yr 2025. Thank U 🌟 ~kat 🤓

[@MiniLemmy]

These “Dream Chaser” mini shuttles are starting to become a parody of themselves! How can such an obvious downgrade from the original shuttles take so long just to get tested?

[@whiplash8011]

Come on Sierra space space X can make a star ship in a couple weeks. What the heck is the hold up , get her done

[@XCX237]

Why so many delays? Lots if promises and no delivery to date. Very slow production. Seems to be getting bkue Origin on it🤔. It shouldn't be that complicated as it's only a reproduction of a previous vehicle ?

[@maxidaho]

NASA is involved.

[@AdamArndt]

I hope that tape isn't flammable

[@mikewalsh1402]

I’m sure they learned from Boeing’s mistake

[@johnnylogan22]

Come on are you serious? We’ve been building airplanes for 100 years. We’ve been building rockets for 80 years. I mean what the hell is going on here, these people need to get all their shit together. Elon Musk is proven that rocket science is not that difficult especially when you’re repeating the same things we’ve dealt with for the last hundred years, get with America and other nations, if we’re gonna do this, let’s just get it done 🤷🏻‍♂️

[@BRO0O0O0DER]

Headache

[@royhorn2782]

Always going to be inferior and overly complicated to compete with SpaceX. Too many things made into it to be affordable or reliable. Its just a scaled down Space Shuttle without any payload capacity. Dream Chaser is just not relevant its already obsolete when faced with the capabilities and payload capacity of Space X and some of the other vertical landing and much larger rockets already functioning or much farther along in development. Dream Chaser has already become a nightmare for those who have invested in its lack of long-term potential.

[@YaoAnne-j7g]

I am at the beginning of my "investment journey", planning to put 385K into dividend stocks so that I will be making up to 30% annually in dividend returns. any good recommendation on great performing stocks or Crypto will be appreciated..

[@richardhammill3213]

Why would SpaceX be worried. Doesn’t Sierra Space Dreamchaser require a heavy lift rocket ? Who has a heavy lift rocket available? SpaceX.
