Future NASA concept designs (32 Photos)

next 50 years is going to be very interesting in flight and space travel. I hope they don't drop the ball

that of course depends on whether they get enough funding for a ball in the first place.
#3 please!!!!!

NASA is nothing but a Muzzie outreach program now. Didn't The One tell you?

I'm pretty sure the ball is going to be carried by private companies from now on. It's almost sad to say, but the next mode of space travel will have "Red Bull" and "Virgin Galactic" stickers on them.

New NASA is cool but I want the old one back! Remember when you were young and wanted to become an astronaut. Well you can chuck that dream out the window. One of the few things that Americans could be proud of was our space program. But because "he" says we need to spend more money on programs like Solair and the Chevy Volt we had abolish other programs.

Ha, I worked on #8, #12, and #20, never thought I'd see them here!

There are a few there that aren't NASA like #22 (JAXA is the Japanese Space Agency) and #24 (ICON is a new company building light sport aircraft). Still some awesome designs. It'd be nice to see a new reusable launch vehicle come from NASA, but it seems unlikely to be anytime soon from the looks of it.

#28 Normandy SR1 the early days haha! I love NASA but a lot of these designs are something a preschooler could come up with.
