Designed to be fired into orbit atop a Titan missile, Dyna-Soar is the closest thing to a spaceship in development now in the U.S. The dog capsule appears to put Russia well ahead of the U.S. in spaceship manufacture; its massive weight indicates that the passenger cabin probably will be large enough to support a crew of three men for a sustained period of flight...
