Mercury Spacecraft Construction
Posted November 6, 2007
We have decided on a new plan for the construction of the Mercury capsule. A consortium of universities across the country will work together to build the capsule. This will greatly enhance the educational aspect of the project. Currently, access to space for universities is extremely limited. The adaptor section aft of the capsule will be able to take up to 16,000 lb. of small satellites or other space science experiments.
