Welcome to Project Broadsword, the Integrated Spaceflight System that has at its heart
the.Independent Manned Multi-Purpose Spacecraft Broadsword 5
As Manned Spaceflight prepares to enter a new era thanks, in no small part, to the participants of the X-Prize programme, the quest to find the right kind of hardware to benifit from these efforts must soon start. As X-Prize will almost certainly result in the spread of companies pushing outwards into space, Project Broadsword stands ready to offer the Next Step. Ready to take the Passengers, Crews, Technicians, Explores, and yes Tourists, out into new frontier of space.
Broadsword 5 is the fifth generation of Independent Spacecraft in this programme. It is a true manned spacecraft operating only in space, a vehicle never before built.
It is not part of a launch system programme, it is however support for such a programme. Offering to Space Deployment Businesses expanded potential they themselves can then offer to customers and clients.
In the related pages you will see how this small craft could shape future space flight operations, ............................in Close Earth Orbit, in Geo-Stationary Orbit, in Space Station support and expantion, in TransLunar Transport, and Lunar settlement, exploration, and one day colonization.
Broadsword 5 could also form part of an interplanetary programme, it has such potential.
