You'd still be *much* better off reading my own blog post on lifting-body spacecraft, though. 😉

Imagining I'm a spacecraft designer for me, my friends, and enough people to have a little party on board, I asked ChatGPT the perennial question of which would be best: a capsule, a lifting body, or a spaceplane? It provided a good summary on the topic for me. 🙂

How big this #3D #prototype of early #STS #SpaceShuttle is😲 A human stands beneath the #model launch tower.
They forgot Eugen Sänger & Irene Bredt #WWII era work on orbital, atmosphere-skimming Silbervogel #spacePlane. But till today, the 🇺🇸/🇩🇪 #operationPaperclip is a bit taboo.
Or, as per Occam’s Razor, someone didn’t apply due diligence in researching😆 Anyway, great article. @Silodrome also leading in #eMagazine aesthetics👍
