Well, I wondered, because I was surprised at the size of the vehicle I saw, as well. It is pretty small, though. The guy I was talking to might have been talking himself up out of sheer boredom- I don't think many people showed up for the event that were at all interested in aerospace. So I hung around and let him dream outload about what sort of payload he'd like to see (space plane of some sort, he hinted). He would not talk about if they had any vehicle in mind or not at that point in time. It's interesting that he was being so careful, but the whole project is pretty much out in the open... the reality of whatever's behind it probably isn't all that exciting. I'm fairly new to the concept of trying to find out about what 'doesnt exist'... so I was excited to run into anything classified in the first place
