A call for British Companies and/or Government to fund the Skylon Single Stage To Orbit Craft
Sign Now
Britain often produces ground breaking designs, but they fail or go abroad because the funding can not be found. Skylon is one of these projects but it has been more a less shot down by the British Governments refusal to fund the program. Skylon is a Single Stage To Orbit Aircraft and would slash the cost of putting satalites in space. The Skylon project is or was ahead of the American X-33 Single Stage To Orbit Craft. Skylon promised to be a world beater.

Did you know that the English broke the sound barrier originally? It's true. In the race to break it, a race between a british and american team agreed to show the other all their research, in exchange for the same back. The British team shared their gath

Given the shocking and catastrophic failure of the shuttle program, and continual failures of Ariane 5, surely the atmosphere is right for such a vehicle as Skylon. This not another Concorde in search of a role - this is British innovation coming at the r

UK was first with the jet enginees, and has great rocket enginees i the end of sixtie's. It's seen that the UK government has no patience, and missed the train several times. Hopes now thisn't should be a new missed opportunity. Greetings from Sweden!!

Look at the impact of the jet engine on the world today. This project has the potential to do the same for space travel as the jet engine did for air travel. This is a very important project.

AT present there are numerous individuals and small companies in the UK trying for space in one form or another. As the government is completely incapable of any vision in this area (in-bred politicians, self servers and paper pushers) wouldn't it make se
