Commercial Spaceflight Federation Congratulates Sierra Nevada

Selecting a Launch Provider for Dream Chaser Launches Is A Milestone

The Commercial Spaceflight Federation (CSF) has congratulated Sierra Nevada Corp. on selecting United Launch Alliance (ULA) as the launch vehicle provider for the Dream Chaser spacecraft's six NASA cargo resupply and return missions to the International Space Station.

Under NASA's Commercial Resupply Services 2 contract, in 2021, the Dream Chaser will deliver more than 12,000 pounds of pressurized and unpressurized cargo to the space station in 2021, and remains attached for up to 75 days as an orbiting laboratory.

The Dream Chaser is a reusable, multi-mission space utility vehicle that is capable of transportation services to and from low-Earth orbit and is capable of runway landings.
