spacecraft shaker system, NASA exposed Dream Chaser and Shooting Star to vibrations like those it will experience during launch and re-entry into the atmosphere.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>Next up, Dream Chaser will move to a huge, in-ground vacuum chamber that will continue to simulate the space environment Dream Chaser will encounter on its mission. The spaceplane will be put through its paces, experiencing low ambient pressures, low-background temperatures, and dynamic solar heating.<\/p>\n<p>This testing marks progress toward Dream Chaser\u2019s first uncrewed demonstration flight to the International Space Station later this year as part of NASA\u2019s Commercial Resupply Program. On its first flight, Dream Chaser is scheduled to deliver over 7,800 pounds of cargo.<br \/>NASA\u2019s work with commercial industry is leading to more people, science, and commercial opportunities in space for the benefit of humanity. <\/p>\n<div class=\"hds-image-carousel grid-container grid-container-block padding-top-8 padding-bottom-8 hds-module hds-module-full wp-block-nasa-blocks-image-carousel\">\n<div class=\"hds-carousel-wrapper\">\n<div class=\"image-carousel-slider margin-0\">\n<div class=\"display-block width-full\">\n<figure class=\"margin-0\">\n<div class=\"hds-cover-wrapper hds-image-carousel-slide margin-bottom-2\">\n<div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\">\n<figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-cover \"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"480\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/microsoftteams-image-9.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" block_context=\"nasa-block\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/microsoftteams-image-9.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/microsoftteams-image-9.jpg?resize=300,225 300w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/microsoftteams-image-9.jpg?resize=768,576 768w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/microsoftteams-image-9.jpg?resize=400,300 400w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/microsoftteams-image-9.jpg?resize=600,450 600w, https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/microsoftteams-image-9.jpg?resize=900,675 900w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\"><\/figure><figcaption class=\"hds-caption padding-y-2\">\n<div class=\"hds-caption-text p-sm margin-0\">Sierra Space\u2019s Dream Chaser spaceplane and its Shooting Star Cargo module seen inside the Mechanical Vibration Facility at NASA\u2019s Neil Armstrong Test Facility in Sandusky, Ohio, on Feb. 1.<\/div>\n<div class=\"hds-credits\"><strong>Credit: NASA\/Jef Janis<\/strong><\/div>\n<\/figcaption><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/figure><\/div>\n<div class=\"display-block width-full\">\n<figure class=\"margin-0\">\n<div class=\"hds-cover-wrapper hds-image-carousel-slide margin-bottom-2\">\n<div class=\"hds-media-wrapper margin-left-auto margin-right-auto\">\n<figure class=\"hds-media-inner hds-cover-wrapper hds-media-ratio-cover \"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"640\" height=\"427\" src=\"https:\/\/www.nasa.gov\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/02\/grc-2024-c-00689.jpg\" class=\"attachment-full size-full\" alt=\"A man in a suit addresses a crowd of media inside the Mechanical Vibration Facility at NASA\u2019s Neil Armstrong Test Facility.
