The X-20 Dyna-Soar was a secret United States Air Force spaceplane project in the 1960s. Designed for orbital reconnaissance, satellite interception, and potential strike missions, it combined aircraft-like maneuverability with orbital flight. Although never launched, its engineering advanced materials, guidance, and reentry technologies. The project demonstrated that piloted orbital flight and controlled reentry were achievable decades before similar spacecraft would fly.
The program influenced the design of later vehicles such as the Space Shuttle and X-37B. Concepts for lifting-body aerodynamics, thermal protection, and crewed control systems were directly applied to future spaceplanes. Its legacy highlights the Cold War ambition to develop reusable military spacecraft. This documentary explores the origins, technology, challenges, and lasting impact of the X-20 Dyna-Soar.
