Dream Chaser Spaceplane Set for Historic ISS Mission and Runway Landing

The Dream Chaser, a commercial spaceplane developed by Sierra Space, is set to begin resupply missions to the International Space Station (ISS) as early as May 2025. This innovative spacecraft, capable of landing on regular runways, will initially conduct uncrewed cargo missions under NASA's Commercial Resupply Service 2 contract. The first spaceplane, named Tenacity, will perform at least seven missions, carrying essential supplies and scientific experiments. Sierra Space plans to eventually upgrade the Dream Chaser for crewed missions, marking a significant advancement in space exploration and international collaboration.
