SpaceX's Big Solution to Solve NASA's New Space Plane TROUBLE! === #alphatech #techalpha #spacex #elonmusk #starship === SpaceX's Big Solution to Solve NASA's New Space Plane TROUBLE! No doubt! Dream Chaser is teetering on the edge of the abyss because it no longer has a launch vehicle as planned for its first launch. Who will help them? Well, no one else but SpaceX. But it won't be the Falcon 9 rocket, so which one will it be, the Falcon Heavy or the Starship? Let’s find out on today's episode of Alpha Tech: As we know, ULA was very eager to proceed with its second launch in September because this is the final step before the new rocket can be certified to perform national security missions for the Department of Defense.

Meanwhile, Sierra reportedly informed ULA that it had “significant risk” toward making the September launch date and that it would “step aside” so the rocket company could move ahead with its certification. In a separate statement, Sierra Space said that despite the setback, their first Dream Chaser spacecraft, named Tenacity, is still on track for its first mission before the end of the year. Tenacity, along with the expendable Shooting Star cargo module, completed environmental testing, a series of tests to ensure the vehicle will survive the harsh conditions of launch and orbit, in early May. The spacecraft was moved to NASA's Kennedy Space Center in Florida later that month, where they are currently undergoing final testing before launch.

While the delay is a major disappointment for space enthusiasts eagerly awaiting Dream Chaser's launch, it is also a smart move by Sierra Space, as extending the testing period ensures that the efficiency and reliability of the first launch will be superior. They have likely also learned some lessons from their competitor Boeing with the Starliner spacecraft, realizing they cannot allow their vehicle to have any issues in space leading to a failure like Starliner. Currently, Starliner is still stuck in space with no specific return date to Earth. Another reason for the separation of Dream Chaser and Vulcan could be a mistaken collaboration from the start between ULA and Sierra Space. For ULA, they should not have chosen a developing vehicle as their payload. They should have understood that they needed to act quickly to get their rocket operational. Meanwhile, the development of Dream Chaser is clearly slow and cannot keep up with their pace. === Subcribe Alpha Tech: https://www.youtube.com/@alphatech4966/?sub_confirmation=1 ===
