NASA’s Spaceplane is in Big Trouble: No Launch this year! Never beat SpaceX Dragon…
No launch this year.
Sierra Space’s Dream Chaser is facing growing delays, and its once-promising potential is beginning to fade.
These setbacks leave Dream Chaser at a clear disadvantage, especially as SpaceX’s Dragon continues to dominate—this year highlighting that contrast more than ever.
What caused this decline? And could Dream Chaser face the same fate as Boeing’s troubled Starliner?
Let’s find out on today’s episode of Great SpaceX.

Dream Chaser has long been one of the most anticipated spacecraft in the industry. With its sleek spaceplane design and promising technical capabilities, it represents a bold departure from traditional capsule-based spacecraft and has been seen by many as a potential competitor to well-established vehicles like Boeing’s Starliner and SpaceX’s Dragon.
However, despite years of anticipation and development, Dream Chaser has still not made its first flight. And based on the latest updates, it appears that this situation may persist for quite some time.

A recent statement shared on X by Dana Weigel, the ISS Program Manager, shed light on Dream Chaser’s current progress. He explained, “On average, it takes eight to ten years for a spacecraft to get ready and fly.” He went on to add, “We still have some of our integrated safety reviews to do, and we're in the process of updating both of our schedules to try to understand where that really puts us. So Sierra is working on that, and I need to wait and just get information back from them to see where they think some of that work lines out. But we are looking forward to having them flying. They're a berthing vehicle, so that’s helpful for us to have dissimilar capabilities in terms of our ports and our logistics. So we will be ready for them when they're ready to fly.”
