Could we be getting a hub for spaceplane operations at KSC what with the X-37B going into OPF-1.

The participation of the Lockheed guy is interesting to me.


If Lockheed is building the Dreamchaser airframes down at MAF, will they also participate in the final outfitting at KSC as well ?

I believe too this will relate to use of an OPF.  I think that is a very significant development.

45 mins to the SNC/ULA presser on NASA TV.

We'll cover it in here (though remember there's a discussion thread for chatter about what gets announced today).

Bob Cabana thinks this is a great start to the year.

Mark S says the deal is.....

...no not yet. Notes courage from Charlie Bolden for the transition. Hat tip to SLS and Orion, however.

Where they are with Commercial Crew.

Praise for SpaceX there too, I think, from Mark S and a bit for Boeing.

And the deal is....

....no not yet. Praise for the fleet and workforce. Praise for lawmakers. What Dream Chaser does....

Wrong ratio for these slides by NASA TV, but readable.
