Skylon: by plane in space
Spaceship-plane with the body of the air-carbon fiber is quite able to overcome the huge distances of the universe, thanks to the synergetic jet engines Sabre.
Currently, the project is under development. However, theoretical calculations is confirmed by the reality of its implementation. Skylon be able to transport up to 15 tons of cargo and autonomously take off. Initial plans are limited to the orbit of the Earth. It is noteworthy that the landing craft will carry on a normal runway, like a standard aircraft. It is planned that the Skylon will deliver into orbit objects such as modules for future space stations, space telescopes and the like.
