James Oberg, for all his good work, has been known to be wrong before.
In cases like this I trust the opinions of people like Charlie Vick
and Art Bozlee. The big one is definitely a shuttle. The small one
photo'd when it splashed down in the Indian Ocean may have been
a scale test model. It may also have been a full size test of a
highly manoeverable reentry vehicle for weapons. But Shuttleski almost
certainly exists.
