The FAA Office of Commercial Space Transportation (AST) awarded the re-entry site license to Cape Canaveral Spaceport Shuttle Landing Facility (SLF) in Florida, the first commercially licensed re-entry site.
Dream Chaser, America’s Spaceplane®, is the only commercial, lifting-body space vehicle capable of a runway landing anywhere in the world. It will service the International Space Station (ISS) under a NASA contract in 2022; the vehicle will return from the ISS to a runway landing for the first time since NASA’s space shuttle program ended in 2011.
The spaceplane’s low-g entry and runway landing protects sensitive payloads and provides immediate access to payloads upon landing.
