Dream Chaser® SpacecraftKnown as America’s spaceplane, Sierra Nevada Corporation's (SNC) Dream Chaser spacecraft is a multi-mission space utility vehicle designed to transport crew and cargo to low-Earth orbit (LEO) destinations such as the International Space Station.

Dream Chaser features include: • Lifting-body spacecraft • Autonomous launch, flight & landing capabilities • 15 + times reusability • Low, 1.5 g atmospheric entry • Gentle runway landing compatible with runways worldwide • Rapid access to crew or cargo upon landing

Dream Chaser Cargo SystemOur Dream Chaser spacecraft was selected by NASA to provide cargo delivery, return and disposal service for the space station under the Commercial Resupply Service 2 (CRS-2) contract. Dream Chaser will carry critical supplies like food, water, and science experiments and returns to Earth with a gentle runway landing. The spacecraft will provide a minimum of six cargo missions to and from the space station starting in 2020.

Dream Chaser Space SystemDream Chaser was originally designed as a crewed spacecraft, capable of carrying up to seven astronauts to and from the space station and other LEO destinations. The crewed Dream Chaser was developed in part under NASA’s Commercial Crew Program, and has environmental control and life support, windows for crew visibility, and an integral main propulsion system for abort capability and major orbital maneuvers.

Dream ChaserMission SolutionsThe Dream Chaser spacecraft is a multi-mission vehicle that can support a variety of LEO needs. Dream Chaser can be customized for both domestic and international customers through vehicle configuration, launch site, destination, landing site, duration and a host of other variables. We have entered into several agreements with multiple international space agencies and together we are developing technologies, applications and missions for Dream Chaser-based space systems.

As SNC advances Dream Chaser for CRS-2 and other missions, we are inspired by the legacy of the space shuttle and the 135 missions that came before us. We are grateful for the opportunity to work with NASA centers nationwide, leveraging 40 years of space shuttle heritage. This partnership allows us to benefit from NASA’s expertise in the further development of the Dream Chaser. We look forward to contributing to America’s leadership in spaceflight and carrying the torch forward. Dream Chaser was originally designed as a crewed spacecraft, capable of carrying up to seven astronauts to and from the space station and other LEO destinations.
