I'm new to this conference, and have read it with interest.
All this info about DC versus shuttle in terms of costs, could someone
please give some information about the DCX itself, the proto to be
launched this summer?
Approx size? (height, diameter)
Liftoff mass, liftoff thrust?
Test fliht profile, suborbital (how high) or orbital?
re-entry technology, ablative, shuttle type panels, regen. cooling?
landing method - parachute or power-on descent?
Thanks.
