Sagittarius is an ultra light, single stage, lift and return vehicle.  Return is important to testing space systems and materials.

The logical conclusion of the ultra light concept -- the smallest possible craft on the smallest possible budgets -- is ultra light fabrication materials and techniques.  A lift and return capability implies extreme precision.  Reproducibility and economy recommend an automated fabrication process.  The result is an R&D project into tools and techniques to combine Carbon, Silicon, Aluminum and Copper into composites to form parts, components and systems with very high precision.

The preliminary configuration for Sagittarius is a blended wing with atmospheric solar-electric propeller, and LH₂/LO₂ rocket space propulsion.

Current work focuses on Fabrication for inputs to Design.
