Shuttle replacement (Orion) still alive

[SlickRick]

So, from what i've read on the NASA budgets, Orion has just been renamed the Multi-Purpose Crew Module, and funded by congress. This make the Ares-1X launch very appropriate for this sim. On a side note, look up Face in space on NASa website. You have a chance to have your name and photo go up on the April Launch.

Yes :

And why not later to continue on the "moon and mars" adventure...

If the Rocket and the Multi-Purpose Crew Module (Module Command) is done, just a kind of LM is needed...

Rocket with MC should represent about 66% of the American return to the moon project...

The future is maybe not so dark...

Does that NASA takes Monkey again ? If yes, I have my chance for this :-)
