More shuttle shenanigans

The exrocketman has redesigned the Space Shuttle as "No Shortage Of Dreams" would do it. It occurred to me that the Shuttle is... already being redesigned. So let us check in on Sierra Space and their Dream Chaser.

'Tis still a thing. In fact Sierra are projecting 2023, to dock with the existent International Space Station; rather than with StarLab or Orbital Reef or those other theoretic stations.

As to how the Dream Chaser is not a shuttle: it's launching on a non-reusable booster... so far. Sierra are shifting to a more-reusable model. Still not quite there yet.
