Good to finally know...

Hoping SNC can find another customer for Dream Chaser.


Do they really have to attempt to talk about how amazing SLS and Orion are at every press conference they ever make?

Yes he seems to be off at a tangent at the moment.

See, that right there is a Boeing cost overrun.  SpaceX doesn't need the US Navy to fish Dragon out of the ocean.  Why does Boeing for Orion/CST-100?

Edit:  My error, I thought Boeing was also building Orion and the two were a common platform.

Can we quit this nonsense and sour grapes?

Anyways, he was talking about Orion

Yep. Paper milestones are expensive. Hardware milestones are even more so. ;)

I am bummed for the Dreamchaser folks, though. I was hoping for SpaceX & SNC.

Now that we actually have numbers, how many flights is that for?  Will be very interesting to calculate the price per seat...

(Yes, I know, not apples to apples, because it includes development cost.  Still).

Yeah.  I thought this was about Commercial Crew not SLS/Orion and some un-funded dream about MARS.
