The X-33 program will demonstrate in flight the new technologies needed for a Reusable Launch Vehicle (RLV), dubbed the "Venture Star," using a half-scale prototype. The goal of the program is to enable private industry to build and operate the RLV in the first decade of the next century. NASA will be a customer, not the operator, of the RLV.
Would the Venture Star program be good or bad for Great Falls?

I think it would be a great boost to the area and give our children good jobs to keep them in the area. Another positive aspect of using this area as a launch site is that we are closer to the target than most other areas. More payload, less fuel and less cost.
