Part 2 here -    • Abandoned Space Hardware: CANCELLED P...  

There’s nothing more exciting than a new rocket concept, a new mission to unknown worlds, or an exciting breakthrough technology. Unfortunately for every proposal there’s almost an equal amount of cancellations with only a small handful making it beyond the drawing board.


What’s even more frustrating is when these concepts leave paper, have thousands of engineering hours put in, hardware gets built, billions of dollars invested and THEN it gets put on the shelf.

In this new series called “cancelled”, we’re going to take a look at space programs and concepts that were so close to complete and sometimes even launched before it got cancelled.
