Reusable spacecraft are vessels designed, intended, and generally used multiple times.

This article is a transportation stub. You can help Lunarpedia by expanding it.



Enterprise Class OVs

Six shuttles and several test articles have been constructed of the Enterprise Class. There are no plans to construct more, and the fleet is scheduled for retirement in 2010.


Name Hull Number Status Owner
Challenger OV 099 Destroyed with loss of life NASA
Enterprise OV 101 Not Operational NASA
Columbia OV 102 Destroyed with loss of life NASA
Discovery OV 103 Operational NASA
Atlantis OV 104 Operational NASA
Endeavour OV 105 Operational NASA

Buran Class OVs

The Buran Class was the Soviet Union's answer to the United States' shuttle fleet, and was directly based on it with some improvements. Only one of them was completely constructed and flown, and the project was canceled after the Soviet Union was dissolved.

Name Hull Number Status
Buran 1.01 Destroyed
Ptichka 1.02 Not Operational
Baikal 2.01 Not Operational
2.02 Not Operational
2.03 Scrapped

Kistler K-1 Series

The K-1 series is a planned private reusable class of spacecraft in development since the 1990s.


Masten Space Systems eXtreme Altitude Series

The XA 1.0 series is a planned reusable class of suborbital spacecraft. A prototype, XA 0.1, is in testing.
