Sierra Space's Dream Chaser spaceplane undergoes key testing at NASA's Armstrong Test Facility

The first commercial spaceplane designed to head to orbit reached another key milestone towards its first mission. Working at NASA's Armstrong Test Facility in Sandusky, Ohio, teams with Sierra Space and NASA integrated the Dream Chaser spaceplane with its Shooting Star module for the first time this month as it goes through key testing.

The cargo spacecraft is poised to be the payload onboard the second certification flight of United Launch Alliance's (ULA) Vulcan rocket. Launch is anticipated later this year.
