Shuttle-C: The Future is Now

This video details plans for Shuttle-C, an unmanned heavy launch vehicle to carry payloads into orbit. Computer animations depict the Shuttle-C, which uses the same recoverable external boosters, external fuel tank and main orbiter engines as the existing Space Shuttles, through liftoff and entry into orbit, where it progressively jettisons the cargo shroud, external fuel tank, and nose shroud. The video also shows computer simulations of a remotely controlled orbital maneuvering vehicle positioning pre-assembled components of a Space Station and delivering planetary probes and lunar exploration materials to orbit. This 1989 video is also cataloged as NASA-TM-109355
