Space Shuttle X-2
Quicktime Video 526 k Hi compression. To start press the movie run button.

This is one of my personal design refinements of the 1952 ferry rocket proposed by Wernher von Braun. The spacecraft can carry a crew of ten and is capable of carrying a useful payload of up to 36 tons ( compare with the present-day shutttle's 94 ton capacity.) The original art is computer generated using Ray Dream Designer, Photoshop, Director and Quicktime. The Space shuttle was created and rendered with Ray Dream and the background stars and special effects are made with Photoshop 3.0.
