Purpose and Abstract

Introduction:
One summer night, I raised my 5-year old eyes towards the sky and sighed, "Ah, the moon". Although this fragment of a sentence may seem archaic and . Throughout my childhood, I've gawked at jets and helicopters during air shows and drew fantastical spaceships and fighter jets, twirling in endless loops and spirals. 
The first idea I had for my project was to fix something from the past; the space shuttle. The space shuttle program, although successful, was flawed in many ways. For instance, the space shuttle used solid rocket boosters to reach orbit. These, once lit, burned at maximum thrust until it ran out of fuel, and were about as safe as strapping a bomb to your chair and hoping it would launch you upwards. Also, the space shuttle did not have an escape plan in the event of an emergency, something even the Apollo mission had in the form of a booster built to launch the command pod away from the spacecraft. Finally, the space shuttle was known as the flying brick. Space shuttle commanders trained in a Grumman Gulfstream C-11 with the landing gear down, the engines in reverse, blinds on the sides and the flaps up. However, I had initially decided against this, as no one used

Purpose: 
The purpose of this project is to create a feasible model of a Single-Stage To Orbit spacecraft that can provide the necessary environment for a compact fusion engine, developed by Lockheed Martin. 

Procedure: Make the thing. Maybe 3-D print a model. 

Results: Should be a plausible model. Don't have to build the actual thing, obviously
