What is going to now happen with the hush-hush military spacecraft - the so-called 'Black' Space Shuttle ? (Note: No racist overtones implied, It so named in the late 1990s because it is not suppose to exist). Now perhaps the XB-70 Valkyrie and Dynasoar technologies will be revived or revealed - at least this might fill the gap between the civilian shuttles and the 2015 Constellation programme.
Also nothing beat go ol' American capitalist ingenuity.... real competition.
Go. China, China, China...
